This is meant to be light hearted, but I suppose, in retrospect, it is quite sad.
When I was about sixteen, I used to hang around with friends in town, and even in boiling hot days I refused to take my jacket off because I was so self concious of my body. I would rather sweat and be uncomfortable than reveal it in any way.
People used to ask "Aren't you hot?!" and I would say "No", and I invented this condition where the body confused hot and cold signals. Isn't that utterly ridiculous?! Just so I wouldn't have to take my coat off. I have no idea if these people believed it, it would be hilarious if they did though!
Very silly how insecure we can be, isn't it?
I'm glad I'm doing something about it though.
