For my current job, I applied, applied, applied. Had multiple interviews and didn't get the job. I tried for 5 years to get the job I have now. I finally landed it last year after zoom call with the staff. I am stubborn and persistent. And didn't stop trying, lost hope sometimes sure. Tried not to get discouraged. My crush, who knew me 10 years before all that, said she had no clue. She's supportive when I have bad days and always there for me. She makes me want to be better, to lose the fear and believe in myself. To be the true me. Iam sure people will like you, unless you're a real jerk or something hahaha. I always found it surprising how kind most people are. Everybody has there stuff, fears, and self doubts. I try to be genuine and seek out ways to connect and show people I care about there life's, and problems. And not dwell on my own, because at the end of the day, it doesn't define me.
