What's something small that everybody takes for granted that you want so badly, but have never been able to get?

    The ability to not care about what other people think. I spend a lot of time stressing about my image in public. I envy people who can just brush off what others say.

    Confidence. As simple as that

    I think people take being naturally thin/skinny for granted. I've always been big and you are more likely to here "wow he's fat" than "wow he's thin". Maybe I'm wrong but I feel like people take that for granted.

    I've always been a big guy, played soccer for years, so I'm not inactive or lazy...I'm just big.

    A PHONE. I was not allowed to get a phone til I was fourteen (fifteen now) and literally all of my friends had phones and kids younger than I had phones and the most tech I had was a fit bit. I felt really left out sometimes.

    A perfect body. I’m always called ‘the fatty’ in my life, and I’ve always wanted a slimmer body 🥲

    Probably being an only child. I’m practically the oldest of five (I have a twin who’s technically older by three minutes but he’s so immature so I’m pretty much the oldest) and so I’m kind of ignored a lot, or at least have less attention. It’s also so loud a lot. I like quiet, as kind as its not to quiet, I always have some noise because of my fish tank but I hate it being to loud and chaotic. If I was an only child I think it would be different. But I have only child friends who always say they’re lonely so pros and cons.
    That was more of a big thing than a small one I guess. Sorry

    Being able to eat anything you want to. I used to be able to eat without any problems now I am lactose intolerant, can't eat spicy food, can't overeat because of acid reflux beside other GI problems. My body hates me.

    Being frickin cisgender! Holy shoot, you people don't realize how lucky you are to be happy with your body and the way people see you. I've always wanted to be born a guy (I'm non binary) because I want a flat chest and deep voice. Seriously, if you are cis, embrace it. At least you don't feel trapped in the prison that is your biological sex.

    Another thing I just thought of: Being able to be a little late for something without having a panic attack and starting to cry. I have to be at least ten minutes early for everything I do, or else I burst into tears.

    A perfect attendance award.
    It's not fair, there are kids (like me) with health issues that mean they need to go to the hospital a lot to make sure they're not going to DIE, and who can't go to school if someone has a cold because we don't want to get super sick.
    My brother gets perfect attendance every year and he always rubs it in my face that I've never gotten a perfect attendance award before, and tells me it's all my fault, I need to be more responsible (which isnt true but it feels like that sometimes)
    If one of my friends made me a perfect attendance award I would be so freaking happy you have no idea
