LJ Idol Week 13: But you haven't seen my man.

[ohelectricshock]

I haven't been given this much attention since I was an only child, before my siblings were born. It's intoxicating, it makes me feel more desirable than I have ever felt in my life. Going through a breakup in such an insular community basically broadcasts and projects your freshly solitary status to every waiting man. And there are a lot of them

I love the descriptions in this! The R. Kelly reference made me laugh, and the part about being in your own porno with the guys all over was superb.

[ohelectricshock]

Haha thank you! I remember at one point thinking that Trapped in the Closet had nothing on my life at one point and it stuck with me, hahaha.

Not all attention is good attention.
So very well written, such a sad story.

It's amazing how often we find ourselves living the most awkward things that we'd never believe in movies. I love the comparisons in this, and the sense of balancing between changes.

No kidding, hey? I remember thinking at the time that at some point I had to write about it because you just couldn't make this kind of shit up, hahaha.

Lol! I've had those moments. :)
