I’m so tired of being the one who has to understand everyone else. Like, somehow I’m always supposed to be patient, forgiving, and chill, but the second I’m upset, suddenly I’m “overreacting.” I’m allowed to be annoyed. I’m allowed to have bad days. I don’t want to explain every single thing I feel just to have someone take me seriously. Sometimes I just want people to notice that I’m not okay without making me practically beg for attention. And honestly? I’m exhausted from pretending I don’t care when I actually care way too much.
