It turns out this man that I was now seriously dating was what is known as "sensitive," meaning he is sensitive to energies, a.k.a. ghosts.
ghosts
drama
While most other little girls dreamt about fairytale like wedding where they are a princess and whatever, I dreamt about throwing dishes at my lover’s head and threatening to leave him for my boss
etiquette

comics
As a comic, apparently I’m supposed to be able to take a joke, ANY joke, no matter how bad, dumb or insulting it is.

addiction
I don’t blame my parents for introducing me to the debilitating world of narcissism. But to this day, my father still believes, and I quote, "If you tell someone 'good job,' they'll get lazy so I say nothing so that you'll work harder."
bugs
I was being punished for failing to grow up and accept that I was going to be somebody's wife. Punished, with lice.
it happened to me
Because apparently there are no roles for actresses who are "too Jewish-looking" (nevermind that I'm Italian).
