If it's true that I cease to exist when no one thinks of me, can it also be said that I only exist in other people's conceptions of me?
Wouldn't I rather not exist than be:
The daughter who won't get married. The one who won't get a real job. The sister who won't come out of her room. The friend who acts like a white girl. The one who thinks her stringy hair is beautiful. The bad friend who never calls. The one who talks too much. The quiet girl in the corner. The weird one. The yellow one. The one who has no future ambition. The one who's always up for a night out.
?
Validation isn't always positive.
