i want to go to my high school reunion but i think i am too fat. i have not done nearly as much as many of my classmates. i am not married. i do not have any children. i do not have a paying job. i have not even gone and i feel like a complete failure. Once again i have nothing to talk to anyone about. i do not have a fancy car either.
Always a mistake to travel that road of looking forward and backwards. Stupid of me to be interested.
Crap! now i am freaking out and hating myself all the more.
Hide
Hide
Hide.
i do not measure up and never have.
Oh the screaming and shouting going on in my head.....ugh!

Don't listen to the screaming and shouting. You might be surprised how others lives are not that great. We can never measure up to what we think we should be in our own head. I suggest just go and have fun and don't put unreal expectations on yourself. Just be you!

Maybe you are right. Just a little anxious...well a lot anxious i guess. Thank you. i am going despite my fears.

I feel the same too. You are more brave than me. Whatever the result is, I wish you well. I really do.

gma: it reminded me about facebook. I read articles about how we look at others from what they post on facebook.
