Circle "yes" or "no"

I feel like I am an option, not an important person. Employers see my name at the top of a job application. It seems like my family views me as a person to do a specific job that  I don't necessarily want to do in the first place. My friends turn to me when they have a problem, no one else to turn to, or when it is convenient for them; they will come back from the summer and will have to decide if I am the best option for them at that time. The school has to decide if I am the best option to award a scholarship to. This is exhausting because I never know what people want to do with me. Who are they to judge if I am the best anyway. I do good things and I work hard. I put in lots of time and energy in things for other people and causes that I love. I am tired of standing in the line waiting to be picked for a team; I have been the last one to be picked since first grade literally and theoretically. It would be so nice to be someone's first choice. I recognize that I should be thankful that I am even picked to be on a team. It is hard to be patient and be happy being patient. I wish people would stop leaving me hanging waiting for them for months sometime to make a choice. I am a good choice. I am important. Please, stop playing with me; I don't want to be your maybe or I don't know yet.
