Lately, thank God, I've been having calm, good thoughts regarding everyone and how not to judge them. But every once in a while a topic comes up that has to be discussed. Today's topic "Low Self-esteem in young girls and how they are taken advantage of.
You know, I'm 46 years old and up to now I must say that I have seen many things in my life. I'm sure, however, that life will bring me more things to leave me in awe and amazement.
In high school, I have known young girls that, after being a long time with a boy, breaks up and went into depression. The self-esteem went down and they felt like it was their fault so they brushed off boys for good.
I thank God I wasn't the type they hated but nevertheless they were upset. It became the norm. Some girls got over it keeping their minds occupied until they feel better, while others were attacked by the last person they thought would be that way.
I know one girl who had a BFF that seemed to never go out with a boy. Pretty and kind of tomboyish, she would never leave the side of this one girl. The girl broke up with her boyfriend and instead of being there for her, she took advantage of her low self-esteem and made a pass at her.
The girl did not know what had hit her and after saying "Yes" to everything, the gay girl convince the other girl that she too was gay. It seemed right, after all the gay girl told her the exact things she needed to hear to comfort her. What could go wrong, right?
Well, suffice it to say, that didn't go to well for them. The gay woman was so jealous of both boys and girls, she made the other girl feel even more depressed than before.
The poor girl started to ignore her and she was beaten up for it. Obviously because the gay girl had something to prove. Anyway, that relationship finished the day it got physical.
I want to say that my friend, the young straight girl, is married with children, living down south somewhere. It's obvious that I will not say who it was. I also want to point out that the guys weren't innocent in this girls life either.
Yes, she was that gorgeous and in my opinion, still is. Anyway, the guys all tried to do a full court press on her to take advantage of how she was feeling as well. I think that's so fucked up. I tried being a friend to her and I was.
She was a little uncomfortable at first but then when she saw that I didn't expect anything from her we became closer friends and are now. I actually think it was me that caused her gay friend to fight with her. Hey, it's not my fault we became close! It just happened that way.
Today, I was reading the status of a young friend of mine that went to school with my son. She sounds sad and very depressed. Se ants to kill off all the men and find a beautiful woman. I have no problem with being gay, experimenting or anything else like that but I just want her to be careful and not something for the wrong reasons that she will regret forever.
If it turns out that she is gay then God bless, again, I hope she realizes whatever she is with a clear head and an open heart. I'm sure God will guide her and she will feel so much better when he does.
Remember, as always, this is just my opinion.
