Struggling with "fitting in" or finding the right people ? 😮💨
For so long, I grappled with being accepted- whether by family, certain groups of "cool people", a religious order, or a particular individual. 😓
•
The "pretty privilege", "smarty pants", and semblance of wealth were identities that only seemingly worked when it gave status affiliation to the person wanting to connect with me because of what I was attached to . . . 🫤 Sounds familiar to you, too? 🤔 I know, boo! It's a common reality. 🤧
•
But maintaining a bond beyond that was futile because they were just around to take advantage of what I offered then leave with the goodies that brought them but so far 😬
•
Those hidden agendas are now “no brainers” that I could peep game of today 🥱, but before it was challenging to recognize the leeches who were solely around for their benefit. Sometimes we're caught up in delusion because we so desperately want meaningful relationships at our expense. 🤷🏾♀️
•
There were times where I thought those identities were a disadvantage that I tried to "dumb down" or dim my shine to fit in for acceptance sake. . . 🥴
