Hypersensitive? Is this a term one can use to describe me? I admit I'm such a crybaby because even cartoons and feel-good movies make me sob. I can still remember when I watched Happy Feet in the moviehouse and I was weeping silently.. hehehe (I watched the movie alone so I was like.. oh my gosh, what will others think if they hear me crying!?). But that doesn't make me hypersensitive to what others say.
Well, normally, I don't get hurt anymore by what others say about me, but sometimes, it just gets so out of hand that I want to hammer their heads and tell them "hey, you don't have to tell me in the face!" I know I'm bigger than most women my age. I know I am heavier than the usual, too. I know I don't have a pretty face. I know I look old for my age. I know I have pimples. I know I have a big belly. But do people really have to constantly remind me? Come on, you can do better than that.
Insensitive - is it okay to describe other people using this adjective? heehee...
Sister-in-law: Joy, may nakasakay ako kanina sa jeep. Ang taba nung babae. Nasabi ko nga sa kasama ko "May mas mataba pa pala kay Joy?" Pero at least yung nakasabay namin sa jeep, ang puti nya chaka sya, maganda sya kaya okay lang na mataba sya."
CAN YOU JUST IMAGINE THE WIFE OF YOUR BROTHER TELLING YOU THAT???!!!
So-called friend to my boyfriend: "Bro, pag nag motor kayo ni joy, dapat sya yung pagsuotin mo ng helmet. Baka kasi habulin kayo ng mga tao at magpa autograph sila sa kanya. Baka akalain kasi si Jessica Soho ang kasama mo."
Same so-called friend: "Tin, ang laki laki mo, pwede ka nang maging model ng ref, pero hindi yung pang kwarto lang na size ha? Kaya yung malalaking aparador... ah, cabinet!"
At least, these comments, I can still bear:
ACQUAINTANCE: "How many kids do you already have?" - I'm not even married yet!
NEIGHBOR: "You don't look 27 naman. 26 lang." - Excuse me, but I'm just 25. :(
NURSE: "Ang taba mo kasi miss kaya ang hirap mong kuhanan ng blood."
SALESLADY: "Ang tataba kasi ng mga paa mo kaya wala kang magkasyang sapatos dito sa tindahan namin. Sa iba ka na lang tumingin."
If only it were that simple....
If they only know how I feel...
If they only know what I'm actually going through...
If only what they say don't feel like multiple stabs to the heart.
But don't worry, I know who I am and I love myself. ;)
