    Sometimes I wish that I was still a kid just so that I could use the excuse of, "my mom says I can't go," when someone invites me to do something and I don't want to.

    Now I have to make up my own excuse because for some reason people get offended when you say, "sorry, but I'm going to stay home and do nothing rather than spend time with you."

    always thought that "no" is one of the strongest and best words to keep in your vocabulary. its an awful word at times but it does harden you.

    True. This is also why I'm very open about how much I love being at home. Quite often if someone is going to ask me to hang out they know me well enough to know that I just might not want to and to not take it personally.

    This. My friends know how introverted I am and they always give me an out. But if they're more persistent than usual, an "I'd love to come, buuuut I don't want to" usually works. :sweat_smile:

    Oh! I meant to tell you who you remind me of. Ever heard of Jacob Laukaitis? He's a Lithuanian youtuber, I'm sure you have. :smirk: Anyway, I watched a video of his last night and he reminded me so much of you. His personality specifically, although a little in appearance too. You should check him out, he's the most likeable (likable?) guy ever!

    I keep my earbuds in at work pretty much all day, but sometimes, I'm just pretending I have something playing so I "can't hear" certain coworkers trying to get my attention for small talk. I even do fake headbobs occasionally, like I'm reeaaalllyyyy into the music. It works most of the time.

    This one's terrible, but I'll put it out there in hopes that it will motivate me not to do it again.
    This morning I went to the gym, saw that all the squat racks were taken, and just hit the showers and came to work instead. Looks like I'll be working out this afternoon.

    I'm annoyed because I want to eat what I want, but doing so has made me where I am now. Overweight and with a gallbladder that hates me.

    I confess I am ready for menopause. The older I get the worse my cramps get. I can't tell if I'm going to *kitten* my pants or throw up. But I want it to stop.

    If you can find a way to do both at the same time, America's Got Talent may be interested.

    I gotta take a shìt at work, but the restroom is very close to all of the offices and I don't want everyone to smell my purge.

    I had that problem when I was a teenager, except I would literally get sick. The pill helped me so much with that!! Haven't gotten sick due to PMS since.

    I confess that the people at the gym having secret flings are almost as obvious as the ones doing it here on MFP. Watching the sideways glances that they don't think anyone notices is like reading the vague posts that we aren't supposed to realize are for someone else here.

    What?! Your gym sounds so much more exciting than mine.
