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.

Yeah. Like I want so so so badly to be able to be seen as attractive and just like...nice to have in a room. But any time anyone looks at me I can only interpret it as "ew". Like sometimes people will straight up walk up to me and compliment something about my fit, and I have to stop myself from thinking "they're only doing that because they can smell how ugly of a person you are and feel sorry for you".

Femcel? Like...no...definitely not celibate...
