Being alone is for the best. It’s easy for me. I can learn to fend for myself, not needing anybody, no expectations, no worries for anyone else, I won’t ever feel like a burden, and if something goes wrong, I’ll have no one to blame but myself, no complaints, no stress.
I’ve felt like a burden all my life, I feel even more of a burden to everyone as of this moment. I’ve been known as the needy child, never being able to do anything for myself, and you know what? I agree, and thats entirely my fault, I used to blame it on my parents, and they way they sheltered me and wouldn’t give me open chances to do anything, so I got used to it, and now, it’s fucking me over. I missed so many chances and opportunities because so, I’m having people look down on me and see me as trouble than an equal, I’m having rough times with some of my best friends because of me being a burden and needing them so often and relying on them, when really it was never their job to begin with. I’m not going to lie, and face it, Alex was a big part of my life, he helped make everything so easy, and I depended on him, and when I lost the privilege , I felt lost myself. And thats where I fucked up. That’s where I always fucked up. I will never grow up until I start learning to do stuff on my own. When I vent, its thought as complaining, so now I’ll always want to watch what I say, or just not say anything at all. I’ll never get to speak my mind, without it being judged in a bad way.
I hate being on other peoples schedules. Hence why I want to be able to drive, I don’t need to have a car, but it’ll make life 10 times more easier for myself and everyone around me. I hate the fact that I will need people, just because I’ve been so used to it, I don’t want to sound like I’m complaining, but its the fact that its difficult for me too just automatically start doing things on my own because I will need help. Right now I’m going through such a rough time, with my parents, their schedules, my friends, family problems, money problems, transportation, life.
I appreciate everything I have more than anyone thinks, and just because I seem like I don’t and I say things that make it seem like I take things for granted, but these are the things I think about most, because I can’t help it, or how Alenn says, I’m just being Tommy. And I hate knowing the definition of what is behind that saying. I don’t want to be known as that just because I feel like I can’t help it. Its not what defines me as a person, but thats how I tend to project myself. Now don’t get me wrong, being alone fucking sucks major balls. I’m not saying I want to be isolated from the rest of the world, I just want to be major independent and still have all the people I want and love in my life. I just hate relying on people, I hate feeling lost when someone ups and steps out my life even if its for a brief moment. I hate NEEDING peoples help, I wish I could do everything by myself, but right now, I can’t, and I hate that, because I’m on someone else’s schedule again. I hate not being able to worry about my later future, because I don’t even know whats going to happen tomorrow, and it’ll change everything. I know I should let other people affect me, but its kind of hard when you’re 16 and depending on your parents and they can’t even help you right now. I’m alone, but I’m not independent.
I need to be alone, I need to be independent. It makes for a better life in the long run. Everything else will fall into place. It’s really sad I have to make it one of my dreams, but thats what I wish for. I want to want people in my life, not need them. I simply need to grow up.
