BEAUTY

Do you derive pleasure in telling people they look ugly/disgusting because they do not fit the criteria of what you perceive to be beautiful???
Are you aware of the consequences of your actions?
Or how your "jokes" can have impact on not just the person but everyone around you who hear it? 
I have been on the receiving end, where I had to pretend like what they said do not have any impact on me, but it does. 
After all, we are just social animals who seeks acceptance and validation. 
I do not put the blame on you if your perception of  "beautiful" is so manipulated by our society that you just cannot look past it. 
But if the factors that contribute to this standard of beauty was slightly changed, YOU yourself could be awfully ugly and disgusting that looking at you alone could be unpleasant.
I am not here trying to teach you to be kind when I am not so kind myself, but your lack of empathy and demeaning jokes is such a shame.

Then there you were, showering me with promises, security that you won't do me wrong as I slowly let my guard down giving you the trust I haven't had the ability to instill on anyone else. I am not denying your claim that you did treated me well... atleast on the initial stages when you were overwhelmed by your infatuations. You worshipped me, treated me in ...

Down is a lot easier than up

I recently come across a person who told me that he's trying to rate me and figure out who is prettier, me or another girl after their failed attempt to guilt trip me to make time and spend time with them. I firmly let him know that I was not in a competition with any other women or men, especially in terms of how physically attractive I look, that I highly dislike his comment and as I said those with raging voice that I try to hide, I mentally question why I even let myself get acquainted with people with such an unhealthy mindset, how I've always had a circle with very similar perspective as I do and for a moment, I quite consider myself Mother Teresa for having the patience to talk to this person without losing my sanity.  But I believe my words went straight over his head as he had zero idea what he said wrong, he genuinely had no idea how unhealthy that kind of mindset is or how unacceptable it is, which I believe is mostly because he have been surrounded by people who con...
