I swear I showered. I know that I brushed my teeth. My Jr. High insecurities are creeping back in! Yikes. I thought I was a (semi) well-adjusted middle-age (seriously what the freak does that mean?) aged woman. I am in my 40s. I have two kids. I have a life of my own. But, when people ditch me it makes me want to become a turtle and hide!
I have this group of girlfriends that all went to school together (I'm talking Jr. High and High School here). We have been on a roll getting together a couple times a year. This has been going on for a couple years now. We are all at very different points in life (despite being the same age - we've just all taken these different routes).
When we recently got together someone suggested that we do other fun things together. You know, just kind of throwing out some ideas...so we started a facebook group (thread). I have thrown out bar nights, a day at the horses, films, different dates...but they keep turning me down. NO ONE - not ONE of the six can go? EVER.
It sends me reeling back into Junior High - when I was so insecure about being part of the right group, saying the right thing or having my hair combed just the right way. This time though - I swear I've picked the right clothes (ones that actually fit me), brushed my teeth and I SWEAR I showered.
Have you ever felt like there was still some remnant of Jr. High insecurities?
