Shyness

So why is it, when we like someone we pussy foot around them.
We compliment them, do our best to make them feel good about things.
Yet we lack the courage to just say, "hey I like you, like a lot."
There has been this guy, I have known him just over a year. He is one of the nicest and most honourable, handsome guys that I know.

Yet I couldn't ever tell him directly how I feel. Because one I don't think he feels the same way about me, and two he is just as shy as I am. Just one of those little issues of life I guess.

Anyway I have had a nightmarish trangsty day. Been he/Mr/Young man'ed all bloody day. I haven't felt male in a very very long time. Like since last August. I don't feel comfortable as the person I am. But then it hit me, I am not Mr Edward Terence Mawer. I haven't been for longer than I thought, nearly a whole year if I am honest. I am Mx Terran Alexandria Leslie Edwards.

And soon I shall be on paper!

Someday I need to actually to realise that I am the person that I make myself. Not the person made by others, or the person who expectations tried to create.

I am wholly my own creation, and I shall live my life as such.
