I hate my mom’s idea of how a girl should be.

She expects me to not have a single pimple, EVER. To have my hair perfectly done every single day. Wax my eyebrows (not into this AT ALL). Do my make up everyday. Wear nice clothes everyday like skirts and stuff. And bathe in perfume. All just to impress guys. I don’t even like skirts -.-. And I can’t control pimples.

She says girls have to look good for guys all the time. And that girls that don’t (like me) are disgusting and look like men. She’s called me a man so many times just because I don’t do her “list” every day. And she’s even asked me if I’m a lesbian before. Just because I don’t fix myself up every day. She constantly makes fun of me for all of this and it’s just horrible living with someone like this. My self esteem is lowered a little each day.

I mean, when I want to look good I do it for MYSELF. Not for guys. And I don’t care if guys don’t like it. If I like how I look then I’m happy. And it’s not like I never fix myself up cause I do often, just not everyday. I know I’m turning 20 this year and it’s time for me to get a boyfriend, but I’m not about to go wear a mini skirt and be someone I’m not just to find someone. I really do want a boyfriend too, but I just haven’t met anyone yet. Or maybe it’s me, maybe I’m too boring or just ugly idk but still I will not change the way I am.

I’m nowhere near a girly girl, so I’m sorry I’m not good enough for you mom. Go get yourself another daughter that can fill those requirements that I lack.
