What’s up Fellas!
As I was talking to a friend of mine who used to attend the same High School as I, memories started to fill my head. This one in particular I remember like it was yesterday. Although I shared an experience in one of my post on what event caused me to change my AFC ways, there was one more experience that was the icing on the cake that I left out. I was a junior in high school and was the icon of an AFC. Even the other AFC’s looked down on me and pathetic losers feel good about themselves when they saw me. Yea, it was that bad. I had NO confidence whatsoever and felt nervous around girls. Some guys put girls on pedestals, hah!!!!! Not only did I put girls on pedestals , I basically worshipped them.(Dont think any less of me please!!) I would wonder “WOW, girls are so pretty, and nice, why would they like me?” “I have nothing to offer them, I going to look stupid even trying to talk to them.”
I would be so nice to those girls it wasn’t even funny. They would ask me to do get them a soda, or borrow money from me. And the sad part was I felt honored to be their little flunky. But one day that all changed. A popular girl named Elizabeth , whom I fell in love with. We didn’t know each other that well, but she would talk to me in the hallways and I felt special towards her. I would skip a class just to go see her at lunch. We wouldn’t talk that much, but just for her acknowledgement made it all worth it. I also would follow her around alot. My life basically revolved around Elizabeth.
And my obsession was just getting worse. When registering for classes, I almost got all the classes she got. Which were none I needed. I was going downhill fast guys!!!! Well the turning point in my high school life happened the following day. Track and Field tryouts were being held that day and I trained months for this. Earlier that day I seen Elizabeth and she told me she needed my help with some work after school that day. So lets see, I could have went to Track tryouts which I trained forever for, or I could be Elizabeth's flunky and do her work. I was an AFC so, you know I chose to meet up with Elizabeth. As school ended I waited for Elizabeth.
TWO HOURS I waited for this girl. She finally shows up and says “Sorry, uhh, umm I forgot.” Then she asked me to drive to the library and get her book since she rode the bus that day. I was like “okay, she apologized things happen, maybe she’s sincere.” SO Im driving to the library and all of a sudden, BAMM!!! I was hit from behind by another car. I was dazed and my back hurted like hell. My car was totaled!!!! This changed my life guys. I could have gotten killed because of some girl. My parents suspended me from the car for 6 months!!!(That's a whole lot in high school years!!)
When Elizabeth found out what happened this is what she said, and I quote accurately!! “Gee, thats too bad, but you did get that book right? you better have, or I will get a B in that class and I just wont accept it” Ohh, HELLL NO!!!! I know she didn't say that to me. When I heard that, all I did was walk away trying not to scream. Later I found out through my best friend that she was using me not only for her home work, but also to hook up with one of my track buddies. The first thing i thought to myself was “is she worth all this”. “She wasnt even all that fine!!”. MY WHOLE ATTITUDE CHANGED!!!! I realized girls were my main focus and it screwed my life up!!!
I was transforming into a DJ without even realizing it. I managed to convince my coach to get back on the track team, and I rescheduled my classes. I had a I-dont-give-a-damn attitude about everything. I was excellent at track and my popularity shot through the roof. Girls liked me and I didnt even care. They thought I was playing hard to get , but I truly didn't care about them!! My mentality changed. I still was bitter about my situation with Elizabeth.
Eventually I got my life together and everything was all good. I never, ever followed a girl around or any of that AFC stuff again. Then you-know-who came up to me and asked to go out. HOW BOLD OF THIS GIRL!!!! I said “wow, tell you what, meet me in the library and we’ll talk about it” HAHA!! I never showed up, and my friend said she was there for hours and stayed till the library closed. REVENGE IS SO SWEET!!!! THE POINT OF MY TESTIMONY IS TO LET YOU KNOW THAT NO GIRL IS WORTH YOU SWEATING OVER!!!! But everything happens for a reason, and
I'm glad this whole thing happened, because if it didn’t, I probably would still be an AFC to this day. I just hope someone might read this and hopefully change their AFC ways.
Man this is a LONG post, I didn't intend on being this long, but it was sorta a spur-of-the-moment-thing.
I think all the DJ’s should post their testimonies and what made them decide to change their ways.
Anyways, I gotta go!!
Later guys,
