When I ask you how many pages we should write for a take-home quiz, I want a god-damn number, not a joking comment about "I want it to be an awesome response essay" and leave it at that. Sure, it's obvious from the context that it should probably be 2-3 pages, but by not telling me you just set off a major anxiety and now I'm going to be constantly wondering about how many pages I should write and DAMN IT I WANT EVERYONE TO CATER TO ME AND MY NEUROTIC BEHAVIORS! *breathes* It's ridiculous just how many insignificant things can send me into a rage. I mean, I got pissed off at someone on here because of something they said that was... well, honestly, about as offensive as someone saying "I like grass." And I'm beginning to worry that as I get better at dealing with my anxiety and become even more outspoken, I won't be able to keep my mouth shut every time this happens, and I'll blow up on someone for no apparent reason.

I've yet to meet too many people who think they're pretty IRL, but I doubt you guys look all that bad.
I'm definitely not one of them either. I don' think I'm positively hideous, but I'm very....ugh. xD

As a future military officer, the fact that Don't Ask, Don't Tell (not as old a law as many people would think, by the way; it was only passed in 1996) is being allowed to continue disappoints me. Such blatant homophobia only serves to widen divisions in a unit, not to narrow them, as it legitimizes the thinking that homosexuals, or anyone whose sexuality is 'ambiguous', are inferior. If mixed-gender units can exist, so too can mixed-sexuality units, if we'll only allow them to.
I went to this thing last night with my friend, who then brought his girlfriend. After realizing that I served no purpose other than as a useless third wheel, I went to talk with another girl I know once I got there, telling them that I would meet up with them in our usual section when it started. Eventually two of my other friends showed up, and the four of us were talking. Finally someone asked me, "Did you come here alone again?", referencing the fact that my idiot buddies in my outfit have an annoying tendency to leave me behind by accident.
"No," I told him, "I just didn't want to be a third wheel." A few minutes later, we walked inside, and they went to go sit wherever they were sitting, and I went to go sit with my outfit. There were nine people there; five from my outfit (including myself), and their four significant others. I was a freaking ninth wheel. My other friend texted me a few minutes later, and the conversation (with about an hour gap between the fourth and fifth texts because the event started) went as follows:
"So you can come sit with us if you want. We have an extra seat. If they're being weird." "I'm good. Just a ninth wheel, so at least it's awkwardness with multiple people...?" "Ahahaha! Well. Just offering." "It's fine. I'm pretty used to it." "Ah. Well still, you didn't have to put up with that." "I'm small and quiet and generally pretty good at just hiding in the background, so it's not much of a difference." "Wow. That's depressing." "Not really. For me, it's normal."
I lied to him. It is normal for me, but I hate how I can go unnoticed without needing an invisibility cloak. I don't want to be the center of attention or anything, and in fact would be extremely uncomfortable if I was, but it's somewhat distressing that I can get left behind somewhere and nobody even notices that I was gone. I'm always the nth wheel, the odd number, the quiet one who accidentally shows up without a date yet again and has to awkwardly stand there alone while everyone else slow dances with their partners.
It's not so much that I'm lonely, I've been on my own a long time and don't mind that so much, it's just that I get sick sometimes of constantly being marginalized. I'm small, I'm quiet, I'm not particularly pretty, I'm not very good at a lot of things, and in general I just seem to exemplify average. Little serves to distinguish me from any other random person someone meets, so I blend, and thus I become invisible.
