This is an innocent childish impossible fantasy dream childish confession. When I was kid———-I was really into wrestling——-sports entertainment, the athleticism and I have been in a wheelchair since like 5 years old. How I wished I could walk and move and be like wrestlers. Big–and strong and able to move freely. I always knew it was probably fake. But I still watched it anyway. I wanted to be involved in it somehow. I attended one wrestling event when I was a kid. I played the video games. I bought in to the hype. There is something about it. I fills a void. Yes– —-they are of ten failed athletes—flawed men and women. Some are to be more respected than others. Though all the scandals—–bad press and even the Benoit murder suicides. Wrestling is scripted for entailment purposes but it is not fake. The sacrifice and dedication it takes to be one. If it we’re so easy———-we’d all do it. That’s why they are paid what they are. 300 days a year in a different city being slaves to the road. Often their second bride… Often giving into the temptations of of the road dog life. I like my hero’s flawed. So don’t ever call pro wrestling fake——-no more fake than all the other soap opera’s on TV. I’ve said my peace.

New Confession

I have worked hard to be the person I am. I have a management position at my place of work. I began there after covid and until recently enjoyed working with the franchise.

I don’t attend company functions or socialize with others at work keeping it completely business like. No one there really knows much about my family other than what little things I have revealed.

At the beginning of the year another woman was hired. Not in my department but in the same company. I never need to even talk with her. Our company requires us to use a payroll app for HR type functions such as scheduling work shifts, days off etc. This app has some social media type features and recognizes birthdays and work anniversaries for other employees totally violating my privacy.

This woman noticed our birthdays were within days of each other. She somehow decided to dig for information about me. Probably from the countless online databases. My daughter stopped in from college as the semester ended to make some financial transactions I needed to have notarized.

This woman chatted a minute and learned she was 20. I am 34 and did the math. Rumors spread like wildfire. Ok I had her while 14. I love her dearly. I had support of my family. Raised her, continuing my education and later raising her as a single mom.

Now I dread going to work because I feel I’ve lost confidence in my position there. It was never a secret among my family and friends and others I went to school with but now I feel like I’m being judged by these people that don’t even know us.
