It's always something

[luco]

You know when life is finally going well and things are working out and you're like 'Hey! I can handle this!'

But in the back of your mind you just know that something will happen?

Yup.

That something happened.

Tell me why I always attract the wrong kind of male attention when I'm out? I mean, I don't over-dress or under-dress. I hold my head up now and walk confident and yet, once again, I walk away with bruises.

At least I also deliver bruises and marks of my own, but still...

What am I doing wrong? I can't figure it out. I don't even bother putting on make-up when I go out now and usually have on a hat.

But, it happened about a week ago. The police have the report and I'm finally not shaking anymore so now I can get back to people and try to draw. I have sooo many commissions to work on, but I can't focus and everything I just try to let go and draw, my mind goes blank.

The lack of sunlight for 5 days is not helping either.

Ah well, I'll pull out paper and pen and just hope for the best. I'm so far behind on online life that I have no idea how any of you are doing. I hope you're all well though.

There will always be predators. They scent prey even if it isn't really prey anymore, as I suspect you aren't. I've heard this before, shitty as it is. At least you know enough and have the guts to fight them. It's not anything you do that attracts them to you. It's not your fault. It's a basic flaw in them.
