    Maybe it is the beer I am having :p

    I just meant that I always think the best of people and so I don't expect them to turn on me .... :o does that make sense???



    And biting??? well sure ;)

    Oh... okay.
    Don't lose your trust in people... but, you need to learn to recognize sincerity and honesty. It takes a while and people can often mask their true identities... but, you shouldn't deny the good and honest people out there because of a few a-holes. Learn from the assholes in your past and don't keep going there. A basic rule of thumb... if a person tells you he is trustworthy... chances are... he is not. Same goes for 'kindness', 'caring', 'giving', 'selflessness'. Anyone who really are these things... will show you who they are.
    ...
    And a little nibbling 'round the butt... yeah... that's what I figured... it's a good thing.

  • I wish I had more courage to make important changes in my life. It's like the logical side of my brain can't keep up with my stupid personality. :D

    I was going to start a thread like this the other day! But I changed my mind.

    We'd all love to believe that all people at inherently good. Unfortunately, that's not the case. The first step is to admit to yourself when warning signs start to appear, then acting on them as appropriate.

    i'd like to be more self-motivated ... i got a pretty good work/life balance thing going on now - but at the end of the day ... going to an office and sitting in front of a computer (even if it's just for 40 weeks a year) still doesn't inspire me to get up in the morning ... i need a kick in the ass to do something else ... more meaningful to me ...

    Absolutely nothing...:p

    yeah that's not true. There are a few things I would change, people already discussed them.

    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 got BADLY burned by a girl a little over a year ago. It still bothers me. I treated her like she could do no wrong, deified her in my own mind pretty much. When she let me down, it totally messed with my head. Thing is, I wonder how much I've learned from it. I'm still a pretty emotionally intense person.

    I'd like to be more spontaneous...and to worry less about things. Sometimes I feel like I need to know ALL the answers or ruminate about every possible outcome before making a decision. Sometimes this is a really good thing...but sometimes it gets in my way.

    Just for once, I'd like to feel like I really know what I'm doing....

    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.

    Actually, I have intentionally set myself up to fail in relationships, you know, in case the pj boys knock on my door.

    ha..ha..I am so ticklish too. But I was thinking in more in terms of personality traits.

    Well, yeah, but I already posted what I would change about my personality.


    In addition, I'd give myself PERFECT 20/20 vision. I *hate* having to deal with glasses/contacts.
