Story 911

We are 14-ish year old and one of my friend says, laughing : "I had this really weird dream last night. We were at school and every single guy was in love with ... [She tells my name]. She even had a boyfriend! How could she be the first one to have a boyfriend, that's so freaking unrealistic." My other friends were laughing. It was at this time that I started to believe my appearance made me unworthy to be loved. It just seemed so obvious to others how ludicrous it would be to have feelings for someone looking like me.
