Re: Marcy re: TTC post

  • No one believes me damn it!!!! LOL

    I'm shy about really really stupid things. Especially when it comes to girl things. For instance.....I can't believe I'm admitting this....I've only bought feminine products for myself maybe 5 times in the past 20 years I've been a "woman"

    When I was in college, I made my mom mail them to me.  But I wouldn't ask her for them, she had to guess,or I'd steal them from our house when I came home on break.

    Even recently, I took a bunch of free samples from the gym rather than going to the drug store and buying them.

    I'm in complete denial over being a girl, or making girly decisions (like TTC). It's almost like I'm "too cool" to admit wanting to try to be a mother.

    I realize how bizarre this all sounds. 

    ETA: I originally became a "woman" (see I can't even say it out loud). When I was 10, and never told anyone other than my mom until I was 15 I think. Ha! Even my best friend didn't believe me. 

    This all coming from the girl who worked at a sex shop in college yet can't discuss natural bodily functions.

    Marcy, I am with you. I am shy in many ways like this also.

  • I love you more a little each day.

    I totally understand what you're saying. I am a loud, obnoxious, outgoing person but I am terrified of calling people on the phone. I don't mean like, making a sales call, because I can make a cold call from the Foundation no problem. I mean, I cannot order food on the phone. Ordering a pizza terrifies me. I get a sick feeling in my stomach. 

    And FWIW, I'm okay with being "a woman" now (although I still don't like talking about it like some people do) I "became a woman" when I was 11 and was terrified to tell anyone. I was in such denial when it happened and then I tried to blame myself for it happening (like thinking it was because I thought boys were cute, and wasn't I still supposed to think they were gross). 

    And I handed out condoms every Wednesday for the first two years in college.
