Dear Bully,

Guess what? Brian asked me out. A part of me is excited, elated even at being asked out on a date--something that has never happened to me before. But, at the same time, I don't understand why he would ask me out. So another part of me wasn't looking forward to it at all. I was the girl that wore oversized hoodies to hide my body. I used to be the traditional, conservative Indian girl that was happy sharing my culture with all without a care in the world but somehow you even made that a thing of shame for me to bear. So what in my trembling, fearful state did he find attractive? 

That same part of me tells me that you sent him Xavier. Brian said he wanted to ask me out for a while now and that it had nothing to do with you...but there's a feeling inside of me that's telling me to not trust him.

I'm scared Xavier. I want to say no because I don't date and it's not me...but I can't. I want to ask you, for some crazy reason, for help. I want to ask someone for help, someone to help me say no.

 But I can't because I had no one. 

So, I guess I'm going to say yes. 

Love, Anjana
