I have deleted and ignored so many bad messages.. and yet I've processed the ins-and-outs of responding to you, why I should and why I shouldn't...

If you're the same person through each platform and every message, then I don't think you can preach about confidence.

You "attack" like you know me... But you consistently forget that I am transparent online.. and transparency, to me, means that when someone uses fact vs. fiction against me, it doesn't hurt. It makes me sharper.

So let me clarify my "confidence" for you.

I have never claimed to be confident. I have stated too many times to count that I am an insecure, jealous, envious bundle of empathetic cells. I create versions of myself I think others can tolerate on surface-level, and remain open enough to let them in if they wish it.

That is not confidence. That is not strength.
That is chameleon survival...
I've made so many masks for the sake of others that I've lost sight of what my true face looked like before I even knew I was doing it. And if admitting that means I'm fake... Then I don't care to know the qualifications for being "real"

So don't come at me about confidence, not until you stop hiding behind cowardice.
