I feel like everyone likes another fake personality instead of me. I'm a void. I'm nothing. Eventually they'll see that I'm nothing on the inside and I'd rather just disappear before that happens. I really give up. I think my boyfriend deserves a better woman but he's so set on me. I'm horrible. I hate that I love him. I deserve nothing. I should have just known my place and continued hiding myself from society. It's all so overwhelming.

This reminds me of a song by Ben Folds.

Just a bit.

We all take risks when we put ourselves out there, and it's natural to want to retreat, flee, try to be safe.

But that's everyone.

So maybe, try to calm down, breathe, and realize that you are not alone in this. That your job is to find those people who you can resonate with and vice versa.

None of us are something, deep inside. We are all beings rationalizing the choices we have already made.

So accept that you are nothing, and so is everyone else, and possibly try to relish what is in the spaces between the choices made. It's where life happens, and it can be worth the wait.
