Except that I'm really not that hot.

My status message: I don't feel beautiful, but I KNOW I am. (trying to convince myself)
Comment 1: (insert pet name here)! of COURSE u r.like duh. :p
Comment 2: You are beautiful!
(like, like)
My comment in response to them: That's what I'm talking about!

Except that I'm really not that hot. In the socio-cultural sense of the word. Attractiveness, as defined by the society I belong to. I mean, some say I'm cute, some say they like my style, but nobody outside my closest circle of friends has told me I'm beautiful. I've been called beautiful by a lot of strangers from other cultures, and I'm guessing it has a lot to do with my youthful appearance plus the fact that they don't often see people with features like mine. In other words, youth and novelty make me beautiful.

I'm not young at all.

Another way of putting it is, I feel like I'm Bridget Jones. And a PHONY, for posting something that I'm hoping people will respond to in order to boost my self-esteem.

So I delete my comment, then I unlike the other comments.

Then I delete the post altogether.

Then I change my password.

Then I deactivate my account.

My reason : The more I use facebook, the more alienated I feel.

Facebook is a social networking site. I'm just not sociable. I can't blame my hormones or my crappy attitude or my appearance or my unhappiness for that, it's just not true, since all these can coexist with being sociable. I just want to not have a facebook account anymore.

Though I just might make a new, fake account for the sole purpose of causing trouble. (Insert high-pitched witch cackle here)
