I never stopped loving you. I just stopped fighting a battle I knew I was never going to win.

I act like I am completely unbothered by criticism, but a single harsh comment can ruin my entire week.

My sibling got the house and family inheritance, while I got a box of old photo albums and a fake apology.

My manager asked me to take credit for their idea during a presentation but I said I had nothing to do with it.

My friends believe I have always been there but the truth is I only show up when it is convenient.

I buy the cheap boxed wine and pour it into an expensive glass bottle when guests come over. They always compliment it.

My brother keeps borrowing my tools without asking and returning them broken, so I hid his favorite gaming controller.

I browse real estate listings for multi-million dollar mansions in cities I will never visit just to daydream.

My best friend from college stopped replying to my messages after she got famous on social media.

I reported my supervisor for falsifying safety records but never told anyone why it was really dangerous.

When someone tailgates me dangerously close on the highway, I turn on my windshield washers to spray their clean car.

I told people that I got a scholarship when the truth was that I had to work for it.

I spend hours reading online reviews for cheap $5 products I will never buy.

I found a lost wedding band at the beach, kept it in my jewelry box, and never attempted to find the owner.

I told my cat that the vacuum cleaner was a gentle pet monster, and now he just stares at it blankly.

I eat cereal with chocolate milk instead of regular milk when I want a late-night treat.

I found a lost designer wallet, took the cash out, and mailed the empty wallet back anonymously.

I have been lying to my family about my mental health since I was fourteen years old.

I bought the exact same jacket you wore last winter just so we would match when we crossed paths in the hallway.

I told their boss that I heard them on the phone making plans but actually said it was about charity.
