I never really put much thought into explaining the depths in which I am a person. That is until someone called me out for being inauthentic. That which I understood wasn't a jab - but a direct result of how little anyone actually knows anyone.

I asked my significant other: What are my core interest?

He honestly gave me a surface level - literal interpretation of skin. This made me realize that I have spent entirely too long engaging in conversations that serve me no purpose. I spent entirely too long allowing people to only come to know me at the surface. Let's be honest here, most people don't give a shit about you. They don't actually want to know you below the surface. They'd sooner learn about the idea of you that makes them the most comfortable. It is in this fact I have come to find the truth.
