Not in a sense 'not good enough'. More of a: 'I don't seem to fit their needs'. And it's best to move on.

Only if their profile says they are looking for something I’m not.

Why wouldn’t I message someone who might be out of my league.... the worst that’s going to happen is they don’t read my message or they do and then delete it.

I used to think I wasn't good enough, as in too fat, too hairy, too this, not enough that. Then I woke the fuck up.

Of course I'm not gonna be right for everyone or those that catch my eye, much the same as delving deeper they won't all be right for me!

I'm fussy as fuck in my own way, and other people have the right to be too and not all fussiness is based on looks. It's not personal (well in some cases it is) it's merely life.

Exactly!!

Listen to Marissa Peer. So simple yet so true.

We use the wrong language to ourselves so so often that we believe our own bullshit we create about ourselves. We far too often aren't our own friends.

If your friend said these things to you you would comfort them, use logic and kind words as that's what we believe, yet when it comes to ourselves we shut ourselves down.

Bad us.

In my head, just now, I will never be good enough for anybody. I've tried so hard to be a good, honest and caring human being. But it gets me nowhere. This year, on Fab, I've been associated with the most uncaring and lowest of life shit bags ever and my head has been fucked to the moon and back. I'm hoping the new year will lift my mood.
