I never learned how to reach out. So everything seems inappropriate and everything becomes uncomfortable and needing anything seems like an obsession. I make mistakes. I've made them a thousand times, and it's different every time, but as I become older it's almost as if things are more and more detrimental. It's so much easier …
People like to call me a hipster. Correction; people who are not hipsters like to call me a hipster. I am not a hipster. Not that it matters. My mind defines a hipster as someone who loves to hate. Someone who loved something before it was cool, but probably doesn't like it anymore. Someone who …
