If you could have one not so pleasant personal characteristic/trait go "poof" and disappear what would it be?

    I wish I stopped getting so emotionally invested in things/people that are bound not to come through for me.

    But I won't. It's just my nature.

    I wouldn't be so sensitive. I tend to take things personally when I shouldn't. Also, I cry at the drop of a hat.

    I wish I...
    ... actually... I'm pretty happy with who I am. I just wish I wasn't so depressed at times.

    if i could somehow do this

    i would take away the juvenile onset diabetes that I was diagnosed with at the age of 5.
    I know with this disease, no matter how well controlled and or taken care of,
    your life is impacted and shortened with this.


    This is why we must live everyday like its our last.

    i want my brain rewired to get rid of my anger and my very short fuse.

    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say

    I'd change my tendency to give a shit occasionally, to not at all.

    I'd stop comparing myself to others.

    I would like to change how lazy I can be and procrastinate my schooling and other things.

    or

    I would like to have more confidence with woman. I am slowly changing that. I approached and now talk to a girl in my class that is easily a 13 on a 10 pt scale, but I am too nervous about asking her out! Sooo intimidating she is. :(

    It all depends upon your anger.
    I know, from my experience, the gals I fought with were the most passsionate. Erasing one emotion, may effect the others.
    ...
    That is... unless you're the type who'd bash my noggin with an iron skillet because i didn't notice your new shoes... or someone who would plunge a gardening hand tool into my chest during sex. Yeah... that would not be so good.

    I would attain the ability to say no to people when asking me to do something I don't want to do

    That's hard to do. No, seriously, it really is hard for me.

    I'm finding myself being extremely cautious around people after my last relationship. I was extremely emotionally invested, even though there were so many signs I was about to get f'd over (and I did). It's really true that love is blind.

    So I guess what I'd like to change is being able to get close to someone again and be able to trust their feelings for me.

    I'm similar to you, goldenegg. I'd like to start entering relationships that aren't dead-ends.

    But the problem is... you don't know where it will lead.. until you've begun.

    What you need to do is pick up the signs early in the relationship. If you've been down this shitroad before... STOP! EXIT! Do Not Proceed.

    But, you shouldn't stop looking.

    Ask her out, the worst she can say is no, but she might say yes.

    My temper, it can get the best of me. It can also be a good thing at times, because I don't let people walk all over me.

    I wish I could stop this as well, it is my biggest set back in life. I let it get the best of me and dwell on the negative for so long. I actually want to stop this because I want to be a much more stronger person who can take care of herself. I know for a fact that I will probably never be married, so I have to learn to take care of myself, may be even better than what my parents have.
    Don't let the world bring you down, not everyone here is that fucked up and cold. Remember why you came and while you're alive, experience the warmth before you grow old.

    I'd love to be more open to people and live in the present tense, not dwell so much of my past mistakes/problems.

    For me, it's not that I've stopped looking. I'm just finding it really hard to trust people right now. It's just going to take time.

    Remember... all men(women) are not the same... unless all you ever pick out is the same person... over and over and over again.
    If that's the case... then, yeah, you are the problem... not them.
