About a year and a half ago a friend introduced me to reddit. She told me about a confession sub where people told wild stories. Most seemed fake or maybe exaggerated. But one stood out. It was about a woman walking around in a sheer top and just feeling the eyes on her. It really piqued my interest. I thought about it for a couple days. 

I'd never done anything remotely wild before \[I know I know thats not really that wild\]. But it was wild to me. I kept thinking about it and thinking about it. My heart pounded every time I thought about it. 

I eventually worked up the nerve to wear a sheer top with nothing underneath it. I wanted to try to walk around in it to experience that feeling but I couldn't step outside my house. The mental block was so intense. This went on for like 30 minutes. 

I told myself to walk to the mailbox down the street just to see how it felt. Opening the door and taking that first step was exhilarating. But walking down the street gave me such a rush. I dont know if anyone saw but I wanted to chase that feeling. It felt like I unlocked a part of me I didnt know existed. 

My heart was pounding and I knew if I didn't push myself I never would. I got in my car and drove to an outdoor market. 

When I got there I second guessed myself and stayed in my car for a while. But I knew this was my time.

I stepped out of my car and tried to stay confident with my decision. I walked around, everything visible and completely exposed, and felt an overwhelming amount of eyes on me. I didnt make eye contact with anyone but I could feel it. The intensity increased with every step I took. 

It only lasted a few minutes before I became completely overwhelmed and quickly got back in my car. 

My heart pounded for 3 days after that. 

That was the beginning of my reddit journey. I never thought I'd do anything like that and I definitely never thought I'd post anything I've posted on reddit. But I'm glad I did and I'm thankful for you being a part of my journey. 🙂 

Here's a pic I took of that day.
