grow in confidence

this is happening, slowly, i believe. and interestingly, more recognizably to others- my growing confidence was pointed out to me yesterday by a dear friend of mine. there is an instance this past week that has allowed me to my growth as well. i went on a date and instead of being concerned about him liking me, i was able to discern that i was not into him, and that i don’t want to date him. i’ve often been so invested in what others think of me that i have disregarded myself. so this is a big step for me!
