>>42070555frankly, it’s just learning that i’m worth something and that i have preferences and wants too. it doesn’t mean i’m not nice or i’m an asshole or anything, it just means i know when i can and can’t help people. i still try my best to be out there and helpful.
and it’s not rude to say no to something you don’t want to do, it’s rude to yourself not to. you are your own human being with your own desires.
i don’t really know how it happened. i think as i’m going through college, i realized generally what i want to do and my views and that empowered me to speak up. i think by putting thought into things and realizing my likes and dislikes, it let me stand on more solid ground? idk if that makes sense i’m kinda rambling?
