My Date with Sexy Underwear
Getting over my fears to try on sexy clothing
For the past few years, I’ve been trying to change the way I see myself. I’ve been working on unlearning unhealthy habits so I can try new things. And that’s how I learned I love vegan food. For the first time in my life, I bought myself a bikini and wore it in public. My confidence in myself is steadily growing.
Last week, I quit my job, and my coworkers threw me a surprise bachelorette party. There was food, alcohol, and a lot of penises. When we weren’t singing KTV, we were playing “Pin the Junk on the Hunk.” There was a veil comb in my hair and a white sash that had, “Same penis forever” written in gold. It was a fantastic time.
The next day, I woke up with no hangover and a bag full of beers. I found a gift bag from a friend and pulled it out.
It was my first piece of sexy clothing. A white, lacy bodysuit that left very little to the imagination. I loved how it looked and couldn’t wait to try it on! Too bad my period decided to show up that day. So I had to wait until next week.
The next week
I came home from a friend’s birthday party. I hadn’t been drinking much, but I somehow knocked wine all over myself. I reeked of wine.
