Reality TV World Message Board Forums
PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

ACCIDENT... THIS IS:

(PN) There's no I in Team, but there is a ME


There's something very strange about teams.

No matter how close you can be, there's always this feeling of isolation, of dependence. And yet, when you're a bench jockey, that kind of pressure cracks your skin even worse. You want to support the higher-ups, because they're your team, but deep in your heart, you want to watch them suck, to screw up so horribly that you, the "sub," get put in their place.

Such is the case of being #4 on the sabre squad. That's not too bad... at least I'm not 6 of 6, but there's some real pain involved. First of all, #4 has 5 years of fencing experience. #1 and #2 have 2 apiece. They started last year. Granted, I just picked up a sabre last march, but... well, for lack of a better term, that really cuts away at any self confidence I might have had.

More painful, still, is that #3 is a freshman who just picked up a weapon in September. And the worst part is, I love this girl. She's sweet, sarcastic, and funny enough to keep my mind distracted from the fact that I HAVE HIT THE WALL.

I'm not important enough to be necessary, but just important enough that the guilt of quitting the team would be overwhelming.


Do I have "stupid" written on my forehead?

ETA: I just reread my post and now it sounds really stupid. It was meant as encouragement. I probably should have PMed or emailed you to say that.

I really like this, Slice. I think a lot of people share your feelings, but most aren't honest enough to admit them, even to themselves.

You put yourself out on this piece, and that's so refreshing. Thank you for sharing.
