Things I Am Self Conscious About
I am an awesome person. Everybody knows this. Although, I do admit that I am that type of guy who cares what people think. Especially around women. This makes me self conscious about the way I look and act in front of a female. Sometimes I catch myself staring at her lips as she speaks to me rather than into her eyes. Why you ask? Because I love the way those lips move and the sound that emits from them. It’s also because of the lip gloss. Something about that shiny glitter stuff makes me melt.
Anyway, so yeah. Below are a few things I am self conscious about.
SLEEPING WITH MY MOUTH OPEN
It’s not sexy at all. Even worse when I snore. When I was younger, my dad told me a story about a prank he did on his older brother. My uncle was notorious for sleeping and snoring with his mouth open. My dad would spread honey on his lips in order to attract flies. Funny for my dad, not so funny for his brother.
LOSING AT ANYTHING AGAINST HER
My ex and I are competitive people in nature when it comes to sports. Whenever she and I would play any type of game, I would sometimes lose to her. I think women find it cute the first few times we lose to them, but over time, she starts associating our losing efforts with our inability to be successful at other things in life.
UNPAID/LATE BILLS
Something about debt just bothers me. It isn’t an issue that others can see, but deep down it makes me feel uncomfortable to know that at any moment the electricity to my house may get cut because I “forgot” to pay the bill. Money can be an issue at times, but there are always ways to make money. Unpaid bills are just irresponsible and I can’t have that.
ALLERGIES
When it comes allergy season, I cringe every time. Call me stubborn, but I will only take antihistamines when I feel like I am dying. My eyes will be red like I have been crying for days and my nose will run like a river, but I will not touch that Claritin until somebody comes up to me asking, “Are you alright? You look like a hot mess.”
GOING #2 IN PUBLIC PLACES
I saved this one for last, because I didn’t want to gross anybody out. If I’m out, normally I will hold it until I get home. The bathroom is my sanctuary and I like to spend a lot of time in it. It wasn’t until recently that I started feeling comfortable going in places like hotels, but I will purposely search for the most hidden restroom in the hotel and use that one.
Tumblr, now it’s my turn to ask you. What are you self conscious about?
