Bachelorette Party

My friend is getting married, and I’m a bridesmaid. Now I face my newest pressing fear. The Bachelorette Party. I am dreading this thing. I am not sex repulsed, more of a sex neutral, but still not a fan. And this party is going to be awful. Mostly because of the Thing. Penises. Lots and lots of penises. There will be cakes, straws, confetti, banners, games, fake ones, and (of all horrors) real ones.

I feel like I only have two options. Play along, pretend I’m interested and having fun, or decline the penis themed objects and food and be a buzz kill (story of my life). The last thing I want to happen is to be strong armed into explaining my orientation. I know these women; add booze to any occasion and they will nag at me until I give in and ‘enjoy it’ or explain myself.

The bride knows I am asexual, but the rest of the bridal party doesn’t know. I don’t have a particularly good relationship with a few of the bridesmaids and in simple terms: I NEVER want to talk about it with them.

“you cannot hide from something you take everywhere with you”

“if you do harm and lie about it, where will it end? without responsibility & truthfulness there is no limit to evil”

I don’t know where I found these quotes but I wrote them down two years ago in the grips of a very low point in my life. Flash to New Year’s Day 2016 and I am holding myself accountable and have started the path to a brighter future.

Never thought I’d be happy to be me, guess I was wrong <3

I hate that I can have an okay day. Come home. And one fucking comment can ruin my attitude. People have asked me why I'm so spiteful...because I could have cured cancer and my family would still nag me about a can of coke I left on MY desk before I went and cured cancer and i hadn't thrown the can away yet
