The Struggles Of A Girl WIth No Filter

"Did I just say that out loud?"

The Struggles Of A Girl WIth No Filter

Coasting through life with no filter could be tough. It doesn't mean that you're constantly mean and point out a person's flaws (but sometimes that's exactly what it means). It means that whatever pops into your mind will be coming out of your mouth within seconds. It's not always just some ridiculous thing you have thought of (that will probably send the people around you into a fit of giggles). It could be mean and, sometimes, an inaccurate accusation about your friend that has been trying to vent to you about her boyfriend... Sorry, friend.

As a person that has had no filter for years now, I can tell you that life can be hard. It's like I don't ever have control of my mouth. Sometimes I say things and five minutes later I'm like, "Did I really just say that?" It's basically living the life of Chandler from "Friends."

Sometimes you wonder if you have a split personality that just makes you blurt out outrageous things that don't even make sense to your own self because a few minutes later you do question where did those words actually come from. Social cues are tough to pick up on. Sometimes if someone is flirting with you, you simply have no clue. So you keep sticking to your "Blurt it out now, think about it later" routine, which doesn't work when you're trying to be social. The Struggle!

Being the girl with no filter means older people not liking you much... Why?

Because you're not a lady. Well, where my not so filtered rage comes through and shows just how much of a lady I am not... AM I REALLY NOT A LADY? Well good for me. If I can't speak my mind then I refuse to be one anyway. If I hurt your feelings, I'm not sorry. You're too fragile for me to hang around you. I would simply be hurting your or simply offending you EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. You probably do not want me in your life.

That being said, if you're the type of person that actually does hang out with a person with no filter, you've probably grown thicker skin. I am so proud of you. You're probably a better person for it. Dealing with people of my kind is worse than BEING a person of my kind.

Out of all the negatives of having no filter, our feelings are the most important to us. We can dish it, but we cannot take it. Let me tell you that once my feelings get hurt I will think about it 10 years after the fact and hold that grudge. We are fragile people and don't know how to deal with mean people because we are mean people. Please don't hurt my feelings. I really don't mean the things that I say. Or do I?

In the end, you just struggle with the fact that everyone knows you're evil. It was supposed to be a secret.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
