Rejected By Peasants Crowned By Kings

I have always been a radical optimist.

In high school, when my roommates deliberately froze me out:

"You don't need to come to dinner with us tonight. You just don't fit our vibe anyway."

I simply pulled the duvet over my head.

"Thanks for the peace and quiet. Make sure the door clicks when you leave."

In college, when my boyfriend cheated on me with my best friend:

"We just couldn't help ourselves, Sabrina. It happened."

I sent them a congratulatory text:

"May you stay glued together forever. You just saved me a fortune on birthday gifts."
