I feel that other bloggers/friends/acquaintances won't like me either and then I am a "no" woman, but lately I have been trying to be a "yes" woman and go out more, put myself out there more and remind myself that there are nice girls out there.

I have a similar person that I have to remind myself of-- she and her friends from the cheer squad are still friends, but she's one of the few who added me on Facebook and occasionally "likes" my posts and pics, even though I wasn't cool enough to be in her crowd in high school. At our high school reunion, some of her group were still the same ol', "we're hot and we know it" bitchy and the total stereotype of Orange County housewife (seriously I would not be surprised if they auditioned for RHOC), but she's this down-to-earth, all organic and DIY mother of the sweetest toddler. Anyway, the point being, I have to remind myself of her every time I want to judge the pretty girls. She's my "Jenny Francis."Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01462804060646159589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6578996577431253756.post-35609000739436943032014-04-30T11:14:41.692-05:002014-04-30T11:14:41.692-05:00I think we all still do this, you're not alone...I think we all still do this, you're not alone!
