I didn’t always have much self respect. I think that’s the reason now that people that had known me back then think I’m arrogant. It’s quite the contrast to grow respect and confidence where you once were a mat. But seeing my worth helps me see all of the situations I still naively agree too, sometimes aren’t for me.
Barred
I would have done incredible
Working in a bar
about 3 years ago
It was absolutely terrible
Working in a bar
about 6 months ago
lasted about 3 weeks
realized it wasn’t feeling right
first time someone hit on me
it’s a shame you have a boyfriend
I, sure as fuck, think not
The shift wasn’t any person
other than myself
The shift was respect
an unwillingness to trade money for self
I wanted to say my miscarriage
was my only reason
for walking away
But it was just what made me realize
I wanted a family with him someday
Much love, until next time.
