The REAL me. Just about everyone I know looks at me and sees this self-hating, world despising, dominatrix, coniving b*tch. Even people I've dated. In reality, I'm really shy and I use sarcasm as a way of defending myself. I'm a very open and honest person and I see a lot of beauty in the world (and I express that through my artwork). Not that many people can figure out that I'm not hiding in the corner because I hate people so much as I'm scared no one's going to like me. For me, the greatest thing would just be for someone to see that. I can totally relate to that....the idea of someone taking the time to see past the facade. People tend to think of me as an arrogant, narcissistic, conceited jerk until they get to know me. Not that I'm denying any of that, but there's so much more! In a way, though, I see it as a good thing. I think the perception of having a bit of an edge gets people's attention, and probably sells a few more books. I saw right through it.

You and Eileen are both aces in my book. So you've definitely got the support of the "intimidating and complicated" constituency. We could use more like both of you here! Lexicon is obviously right again. You are genuine, kind, thoughtful and honest. I don't know Tom Hanks personally but he might be like you.

Im sure Im overthinking this too..lol but I think SOCIETY and MEDIA has really screwed up our perceptions and realities I think TRUE love is often equated to whats in the movies so people dont find it because the movies rarely include the realities of sickness and financial stress and other setbacks and obstacles people have to get through together so, we are stuck wanting our girl next door or knight in shining armor, starting of course with the PHYSICAL ATTRACTION, and when we find that we work backwards, trying to be everything we think THEY want so we can have them, instead of continuing to be ourself(the good and the bad) and finding out if they would really want US or not. we fail so often because we too often start off in the deception of best first impressions which are too far and extreme from who we really are in our natural and everyday life. when the illusion dies, the expectations drop, disappointment sets in, and the relationship ends Ding Ding Ding, we have a winner!

Balance
|

Hi Chrissy 
Good question  . Mind/Body balance is very hard to achieve when you have children. I have always been a crafter/sewer/
quilter so when my kids where young I found peace and solice doing that. I did the work/homemaker role all their lives and it does slow down after they leave home. I read a remark once: The first half of your life you are raising your chilren to be independent and move out. The second half of your pulling them back home. That's such a true statement!! When I talk to my kids I say, "when you coming home?"  But, part of being balanced is taking today at face value and being happy that you accomplished what you did and not kicking yourself for what you didn't.
Thank you very much. Your response really resonated with me. I spend way too much time thinking about all I haven't done and never focus on what I have accomplished. Thanks again. |

Really? Full of hot air is an excuse?? He's verbally abusing you... He's an azzhole and trying to act like a controlling tool to get keep you in line... I'm sad for you that you think his behavior is acceptable... The way I'd deal with it is "walk away" with a police escort just to be on the safe side... YEA. thats the general response i get. I know its true too! I know all about abuse too. its not that I am blind to it... I just dont know what to do, we have 2 kids together... I want them to have their dad in their lives, but i dont want them learning his bad behaviors. I moved 1300 miles from him and now he is begging and pleading, sayin he will do anything to be with me... I will share with you what my counselor said to me. "Yes, you have two daughters together and is this the type of man you want them to marry? No? But it must be, it was good enough for their mom." It took me a long time to understand that wanting a father in my kids life wasn't enough to accept that kind of father. The way my children have bloomed away from the anger, alcohol, etc. takes my breath away. Good luck. |

Eklectek, I was trying to make my individual point with few words. How about this, first impression as what? Friend, employee, lover? A first impression is will usually not show you if a person posesses the qualities you are searching for in any meaningful relationship. A first impression of confidence could be hiding a withered self esteem the person has become adapt at hiding. A first impression of arrogance, could be covering a very sensitive soul hurt one too many times.
My one and only point was that an impression is just that, your impression of what you have encountered. That point doesn't make me less intuitive, it makes me more realistic. I respect that you think first impressions are important and realiable. I think differently. Here's to individuality.

Are you a Good Kisser?

Sorry Alina, I was trying my hand at humor. Kissing is the most intimate form of physical connection. If you don't have kissing chemistry with someone, you most likely can't get past that.

I find first impressions unreliable. A person of true worth hardly shows it to a stranger. Ever inspected a gem? Shiny never was good for much.
I disagree. Most intuitive people realize that a first impression is just that, an impression. Not grounded in truth or experience but an impression we make based on our experience. |
