I've always been a bit of an introvert and never felt the need to seek attention from others. My past relationships have been a disaster, and I've come to realize that maybe it's not just me who has issues. Growing up with my family was... complicated to say the least. I think most people would agree that our household was dysfunctional at best.
I'm currently working as an artist in a small studio downtown, surrounded by other creatives who understand me on some level. It's nice to have others around who don't judge me based solely on my appearance or social status. My friends and I often talk about how we wish there were more people like us - people who are true to themselves and aren't afraid to be different.
I try not to think too much about the past anymore, but I guess it's hard not to when you're always faced with reminders of what could've been if only things had turned out differently. Maybe someday I'll find someone who genuinely understands me for who I am - until then, I'm just trying to focus on my art and enjoy life a little bit more each day.
