I'm tired of people flipping out on me over my wanting to do normal things that others my age do. I want to move in the future. I guess I have to wait so as to prevent my mother from having financial difficulties. I did warn her, however, that if we have another blow up between us, I will move out. Now, when I get my hair buzzed again like I prefer, she better not freak on me. She says it's not flattering. I'm not trying to be a beauty queen though. I'm trying to protect myself from the clutches of bad men. That's why I haven't shaved my legs or armpits for months. I know that I can be beautiful, because I used to be when I was in my later teens and twenties. If I really wanted a man, I would have to lose weight, clear up my skin, shave, and maybe grow my hair out. Funny thing is that I don't care. Why should I when I know for fact that most of the unmarried men out there are either gay or full of shit when they say that they love? I don't need sex. I do, however, need to love myself. I'm not going to continue to allow myself to be used by shitty men. If mom doesn't understand why I do the things I do, and tries to rip me up, I'm out. It's just that simple.
