Try as I might not to let it bother me, his text "ur juz one of them sluts i met around the corner," hurt. It did bother me. It bothered me so much that I still think about it today. Earlier at work, that offensive word kept reverberating in my head, over and over again, as if mocking me, as if he said it infront of my face rather than just a text message.

And his next text, "Sori kung ano ung nasabi ko I didn't mean it...sori" didn't help lessen the blow. It still goddamn freaking hurts.

I said I'd let it slide. But I find that I can't. Coz that word affected me more than it should.

Does having had one too many romantic relationships constitute a slut? Does having slept with a man make you a slut? Does flirting with men all the time makes you a slut? Does having more boy friends than girl friends makes you a slut? Does giving your number to a man you barely know makes you a slut?

I don't think I deserve to be called that offensive word. That's probably the worst thing a person ever said to me. And it hurts. It freaking hurts.
