<<< gif by me "oh levi, a vent. how cliche." Have you ever been touched in an uncomfy way in public? Well, I should hope not. That should absolutely never ever happen to people. Except it happened to me. Multiple times. I have pretty fluffy hair (people say). I don't think it's THAT fluffy, but apparently, everyone can't stop saying it to me. Or making it into an excuse to do weird things. My family likes to sort of pet my hair like I'm a cat. Even though it makes me really uncomfortable, they do it in a loving way, or even subconsciously! Which isn't really a good thing if you think about it, because they have gotten so used to it. But it's not their fault. I have never spoken out, because 1. I'm a pathetic shy blob and 2. I don't want to make it awkward for both of us. Even though I hate it, I can deal. They do mean no harm. Now, have you ever been touched like that by a complete stranger? Every so often a young child comes up to me and either does one of two things. The good thing: "Uh, hi, your hair looks really soft; can i touch it?" and I say "No." Or the bad thing: they just walk up to me and pet it. And then I completely snap and go HAYWIRE on them. But can you blame me? I feel so demoralized and like a little toy or a pet for them to use. It's such a gross feeling, its so uncomfortable. "They are kids Levi, cut them some slack. It's not like you have been touched by a grown adult before!" "right?" ... you already know where I'm going with this. I was really young, by myself in a public bathroom, and then someone suddenly stroked my hair in a creepy p3dophil3 way. And I was young! I didn't understand what he was doing or why it was wrong! It was so scary for me... I got out of there... but I have never told anybody... until now it was disgusting. but, hey, here we are.
