Girl given the wrong name.

Tuesday 14th October 2008.

People seem to try their hardest to make me feel inadequate all the time. Too often.
Most of the time it’s the people that should be there for me, to help and teach me every step of the way. Like many things they never actually seem to be there when you need them, they just appear afterwards to claim that they’ve always been there for you. I did discuss this with some friends earlier, and then it’s just been put into action this afternoon.
One person in particular has been in this position for about five years now. She’s had so many opportunities to help me, and never once stepped up to the challenge. Instead she always rises for the chance to put me down. There’s only so long you can go on being told that you’re something before you start believing it. Then if you actually act like the person they’re always claiming you are why do they seem surprised and annoyed?
Someone asked me today who I wished I’d never met. Her.

If one is given a name, one may as well make an effort to deserve the name. – A.A. Milne.
