Leeches

They bite and they suck your blood. 
Okay, she doesn't suck blood. But she might as well, cause she's sucking the life out of me. 

Back-stabbing, two-faced, emotionally draining and just plain annoying. 
Why do they even exist? They serve no greater purpose in life and are just pests. 

Also, leeches are hermaphrodites. Which is both a fun fact and explains the constant confusion between the choice of partner. 

As if biting and taking your blood wasn't enough, some also actually eat other invertebrates that are smaller than them, swallowing them whole. They think they're bigger and better than others, that they can do whatever the hell they like and no one can stop them. They attack those who they believe to be less powerful. But once you decide that you've had enough, treat that leech the same way they treat you and just watch and see how fast they drop dead.  

They're also content feed off decomposing bodies. So, even when you think there's nothing left and it couldn't possibly get any worse-- the leech proves you wrong. 

Now, the leech may not be the villain in this story. The amount of blood they take, which usually isn't a lot, is harmless. But imagine the same leech constantly coming back for more. Little by little, feeding off you. Taking a small piece of you every time. The amount they take from you cannot be observed from the outward appearance, but it does take a toll deep within.


The leech thinks it knows everything and everyone. It believes it can never be wrong. But what it doesn't know is that it's not even close to knowing the person or the truth. You try to be straight forward with the leech? Tell it to leave you alone? But, why would the leech listen? I mean, it apparently knows you better than you know yourself. It thinks you want --no-- need it. But the truth is, your life would be so much better without this leech. Without its constant pestering, questioning and feeding off you.

No one needs a leech in their life. So, you all know how to get a leech off you.

Burn that sucker. Make it squirm.
