Fear.


It's amazing how much people can surprise you.

The boy who seemed like a total badass, but ended up have a cute little crush on one of his friends.

The total flirt who turned out to be a virgin.

The girl who acted like a small child, but is certainly NOT a virgin.

The totally upbeat guy who writes totally dark stories. 

The Christian boy who's had more sex than ME.

The bitch who's not so bitchy.

I could go on and on. Don't think that any of you aren't putting on a facade, and don't think that you're fooling anyone. And yet... can I really judge myself to any other standard? I act like a child sometimes, and I know that. "Please, I, you're NOT a boy anymore," my friend S told me one night. 
It's totally true. And I know this. Yet I'm still stuck in this little boy, look at me, I'm adorable, blah blah blah. 

Why do we do the things that we do? Why do we act like a badass, or a flirt, or a small child, or upbeat, or super innocent Christian, or a bitch, or a little boy? Why aren't we just upfront about who we are, what we want, what we have? 

The the hell are we so afraid of?
