After years and years and years of masking..... I finally was fed up and stopped giving a shit.

I've found like a few of my family members actually like me more now because I don't politely hide my feelings anymore.

"Okay. This was fun. I'm heading out now. Bye!"

"You're leaving? Why?"

"Because I don't want to be here anymore. Okay bye!"

No more midwestern goodbyes ever .

I'm seen as "rude", at first, then many people slowly start to go "Boy, I wish I could do that.."

I'm still trying to find "me", though, sometimes.
