I'm getting frustrated with how others perceive me.
I really only have myself to blame - I set them up.
A lot of times there's a difference between who I am truly, and who I let other people see.
There are those in my life that know me for who I am.
But not many.
For example, I tend to be crude at times, loud, crass, and generally take pleasure in the discomfort of others, especially dealing with sexual jokes.
In one way I am this person. But there is more to me...and I forget that that person is the only one many people see. So when I say things like "I like butt sex!!" to be shocking and obnoxious, some people take it as truth. Or think that I've ever had the opportunity to find out, which I haven't. Or assume that because I'm knowledgeable in sexual lingo I've obviously experienced them as well.
I'm not that person, nor do I want to be. I don't save my virginity for religious purposes or even for moral values...I just haven't found the right person. Call me old fashioned, but I'm not the girl who's gonna give it up to some guy she met at a party whose name she doesn't even know.
But I realize some people could assume that.
And that bothers me.
