When I get ready in the morning, or prepare to go out in public, I have it ingrained in my mind that "this is good as it's gonna get...so, oh well."
I have no expectations for myself. at all. that is how much I think of myself. I am totally alone out IRL. except for a handful of acquaintances, my T and at work. I cannot bear to have anyone new in my life (those first 3 seconds...terrify me!)
