Oh lord. This is actually how incels and femcels think! Like, they believe that every stare they get is directed at them in disgust! Poor Val!

Being trapped in those thoughts is not good!

I genuinely wish Val would value herself more. She's looking too much into the eyes of the crowd. To the point she thinks Audrey is the only one looking at her normally.

She's fallen into the trap of every gaze directed at her being negative and that is seriously sad and tragic! Audrey can only help Val get out of it, but Val has to be the one to do the hard work!

Hopefully she'll be able to regain her confidence!

To be fair, lots of non-femcel and incel people think like this, too. They just direct all the blame inward. Not that I'm speaking from personal experience or anything.

I know we all think of the monstrous incels doing awful, hateful things as the only types that exist but there's also a lot that only have hatred for themselves, living lonely sad lives and keeping away from incel communities which is what breeds most of the unhinged ones. I wouldn't even be surprised if the majority of incels are like this - directing the hatred and blame on themselves alone.

Incel just means involuntary celibacy, not "hatred of all women and non incel men".

I hate that this is how I find out i am, infact an incel.
