I just spent about 20 minutes looking through old high school yearbooks. There are about 8 million signatures that say, "I don't know you very well but....." This indicates to me that I wanted to be sure lots of people signed my book so I asked everyone, regardless of whether we were friends.
Of those people I did know, all the girls signed things like, "Oh my gosh, you are sweet!" and the guys things like, "Dude, you're cool and we had fun in class but you sure are uptight!" Ok, I paraphrased but many guys who were in my classes said, "You need to RELAX!" and those capital letters aren't mine.
What does that say about 18 year-old me? That men scared the ever-lovin' shit out of me. AND I wanted them to stay as far away as possible. Can anyone say, "lack of confidence?" or "fucked up relationships?"
This is making me seriously re-consider going to my 20th High School Reunion. Jesus, High School Norton, have a drink or something.
