I feel like a background character in my own life. I hate looking at group pictures of myself because I always look like the odd one out, no matter what. I’m not lonely at school, I have plenty of friends, but barely anyone that I really know well. I’ve stuck myself in a rut of loneliness because I never really reach out to others or really get to know other people. Sometimes I start to realize that I’m my own worst enemy always trying too hard to be cool and funny because I feel like I have something to prove or just completely withdrawing because I’m scared of being seen or acknowledged. I wonder if someone from school might come across this and maybe realize who exactly this is behind the screen.
