so i decided today that i was gonna wear a dress.

and?? usually i don't wear dresses bc they make me uncomfortable but i was like whatever lemme let my legs be free.

and of course that was a bad decision.

so in my school, i get harassed a lot (it's whatever) based off of what i wear, what i do, etc. so when i wore a dress, people were giving me subtle little glance-overs. my crush (i'll do a chapter on him later) said something.

then, i hugged my friend bc it was his birthday today and some obnoxious little boy said 'ew gay' and my friend, who was albeit trying to defend me, said dumbly 'it's a girl!' when i'm not a fucking 'it'.

after that, when i was going home from my exam and stopped by a restaurant, somebody said 'psst!'

it was some fucking old-ass guy who thought that he could get my attention. literally i sucked my teeth and started frowning because i hate it when people, especially men that i  don't fucking know, try to approach me.

when i walked inside, i got nervous bc i thought he was following me. he stood exactly behind me on the line, and tried to act that he didn't just walk inside because i was there. he stood there, muttered, 'your smile is nice enough' and walked away. i was frowning.

to top it off, when i got off the bus, while waiting to cross the street, some other sleaze bag tried to hit on me. he said, "hey i like your hair."

i took it as a compliment, and replied a polite thanks. but then he went on to say, 'it really suits your face and what's your name??'

wtf? why are you asking my name for?? you're a stranger and probably way older than me!

i was starting to feel really anxious so a quickly replied that i'm underage and ran off. the guy tried to tell me that i 'you're a teenager??  well you look like someone i know' but didn't attempt to follow me.

see, this is why i hate wearing a dress. i feel too vulnerable and exposed. does anyone else feel like that?
