I don't understand how people can get scared by graphic images. Like g*re and what not. It has never fazed me in the slightest, I mean I don't like it but it doesn't bother me.
I feel like I've been desensitized to a lot of things
I once had someone threaten to kill me, in a dark alley, alone, at 9 pm. "Now that everyone is gone I could kill you and no one would know."
I didn't feel anything, not scared, not sad.
I asked if they hated me.
I had my life threatened and that's the only thing I wondered.
After that, they swung a metal fork that they had found on the ground at me. I didn't move or flinch. If that was going to be the way I died then so be it.
Stabbed with a fork, maybe strangled to death. I didn't care.
Yet they stopped short. Only inches from me.
I've never been one to freak out or "get scared" in those types of situations.
When it happened I felt nothing. If anything I felt betrayed. Someone who I cared for and tried to help, despite knowing they have issues, had threatened my life.

But i was okay with that
Nothing seems to faze me anymore.
I'm not sure if it ever did.

I'm not sure what went through my head at the time. If I died would it make them happier? Would it be better this way?
Or did I trust that they wouldn't have gone through with it?
