I was hit on today
For one of the first times in my life
It was shocking to me
That a man
Would have the tenacity
To walk up to me
Look me up and down
And ask me for my phone number
For a "friend" who saw me walk by
And thought I was "hot"

After I let him down by revealing my relationship status
I felt strange
Since when have men felt this way about me?
Enough to obviously hit on me in public?
I did not think I was attractive enough
Or sent those "Come get me, boys" vibe
To be one of those girls they cat called

I was always the ugly friend
The one they looked past
The DUFF
But now I guess it is different

But even though I'm different,
I'm still not one of those girls who knows
How to handle being hit on
This was one of the weirdest experiences of my life
