Well, it happened again. Someone yelled something rude at me out of their car window while I was working out tonight. It doesn’t happen to me often (maybe two to three times a year), but the fact that it happens at all means it’s too much. I just don’t understand what motivates people to tear down others when they’re trying to better themselves. I know it says a lot more about the person who feels the need to yell insults than it does about myself, but it still sucks.
As a girl who has been overweight for a while, I’ve always felt invisible, especially when it comes to men. I’m used to no one looking twice at me. However, every single time someone has felt the need to yell insults at me while working out, it’s ALWAYS been men. I do my best to stop thinking about it as quickly as I can, but it just really bothered me this time.
I really don’t have anything else to say about it, but maybe I’ll go back to using headphones again for a while just so if it does happen again in the short term, I won’t even notice it.
