Title: Went out more like me
Post by: Larisa on February 18, 2018, 05:20:08 PM
I went out more like me instead of this boy thing. I did it one because it's so freeing and one to see how people react. Nope no dress up or anything just the female mannerisms and all. The reactions were yes zero. I held myself more like her. Thing is it gave me alot more confidence being more like me!!

Most people won't react anything but positively even if you go out fully dressed. Just be confident in yourself and its all good.

Kelly is right. Just being able to be comfortable with yourself goes a long way in how people will interact or ignore you. If you act like you belong there you do, and other will usually treat you accordingly. As Jessica how she was treated last week on her first day out with Michelle and I.
You will become more comfortable with each outing until it is no big deal.

Hugs,

Listen to Laurie!  If you own who you are, there is nothing anyone can do to hurt you.
The day I had with Laurie and Michelle was a carefree day, in broad daylight in a very populated area clucking like a bunch of hens.  We were too involved with ourselves to care what others were doing.  I noticed that people look at everyone or no one, but rarely exclusively you.  Live life and don't worry what others think, most likely they are dealing with their own issues in life.

Smiles, Jessica
