I’m Okay With Being A Heartless Bitch

It’s the only way to truly be happy and at peace with yourself.

Death to the “good girl”!

That’s right. I said it.

You shouldn’t be shocked either, because if you’re reading this, we’re about to make a pact.

One with murderous intent.

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today because, whether we want to verbally admit it or not, we all desire…to kill the “good girl” within us.

Dun Dun Dunnnnn

Ya’ll know who I’m talking about. She’s the girl who:

  • Has no boundaries for herself and/or doesn’t voice them
  • Doesn’t speak up for herself in a convincing and assertive way
  • Always feels bad for denying other people the things that they want from her i.e. time, energy, favors (even though they make her uncomfortable and she’s not willing to give it)
  • Tries her best to “help” others even at the expense of herself

The thing about all that is…

You’re not helpful honeybun…

I'm a young woman with a lot of shit to say, and sometimes, I don't know how to say it. I have a deep desire to understand myself and the world around me.
