Oh Allyson, I so wish you could see yourself as the rest of us do. It always amazes me that someone can be so striking and lovely and not know it. I've said it many times so I won't go on here, instead I want to reinforce this:

Besides, fuckit. Worthless people get into relationships too. It's nothing to do with who deserves what. It just is.

It's too friggin' true. There's no rhyme or reason to who is in a relationship and who is single. Don't ever take it as a judgment on yourself. ita's right, it just is.

ION, I just had my first ripe nectarine this year.

BRING ON THE STONE FRUIT SEASON! Holy hell, it was tasty.

It's totally true. I spend a LOT of time wondering how the fuck some people, like my brother, manage to get some. (And generally, pretty attractive, nice, smart chicks. BAFFLES MY MIND. HE PERIODICALLY FORGETS ORAL HYGIENE EXISTS.)

I'm stuck in the nice guys finish last shame spiral.

In other shitty news, just got paged, had to page someone else and wake them up. Then the issue resolved itself.

It just hurts to hear you say you're worthless, Allyson. Because you're most definitely not that.

Very much this. And like Ginger said, I know I can't convince you. But oh, how I wish I could. It's not just being nicey nice. This is not empty praise. You. Are. Not. Ugly. Or. Worthless.

Do we need to be worried about you? I'm getting worried about all the talk of being worthless and wishing you could be dust.

It just makes life nothing like fair.

Very, Very True.

and if I get to rule the world,I want things way closer to fair.

Allyson, you're most certainly not worthless. And while I've never met you in person, I've seen pictures, and you're not ugly, either.

I'm single because I haven't found the person that I want to spend the rest of my life with. or even a few weeks, for that matter. of course, it would probably help if I stopped hanging out in gay bars or with rugby players I can't date :)

Crap. Panic attack. Don't know why. Hate these.

Sorry Hil. Those are intense. Breathe.
