    A few nights ago I went out to dinner with my aunt. Anyway, I had a good time with her, but I bumped into a girl from high school I did not like and who I remember was pretty mean in school. Called me fag and such.

    Actually I was looking over old classmates on myspace a few days ago and when I saw her I said to myself I hope I never run into her(just my luck eh???)

    Since I was always worried so much about my voice sounding stero typically gay in high school my voice started to bother me some at dinner. Then I overheard a converation her(my former classmates) and her husband was having. And they were talking about some girl/guy who had a really raspy voice and they could not figure out or there friends could not figure out what sex(male/female) they were. That was pretty triggering.

    I think what I am learning is this. The girl moved on with her and probably never thinks abut me. I need to keep moving on I never thought about her in specifically. I thought of just everyone who teased me in school. I only really thought about her recently because I saw her on myspace and bumped into her.

    Anyway, its over with.

    On to me. I have an interview with a major airline in about a week and a half as a flight attendant. I am excited. As I posted before the other job did not work. I am also on some new medication and lets hope these are more helpful

    Thanks for all the support, past and present
    Justin

    One other thing, but my time ran out. Even though I know it was probably not my voice they were making fun of sometimes my OCD gets in the way and and I have a tendecy to make it about me.

    good luck with the job!! flight attendants are super cool ^_^ hope it goes well! and i'm sorry about that woman, but at least you got a good resolution out of it: try not to think about them, because sad people like that are so much worse off than you are :slight_smile:

    :grin: Good work. Self reflection is a trait not seen in many people...except alot of the people on EC :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:. It's good to see that you didn't make an ass of yourself. Good luck with the job.
