Do you ever find your mouth gets in the way or ruins things??? maybe too blunt or honest (like me)


Oh my, yes. This is my biggest "area of development". I recall saying, aww, I think it's sweet you are such a control freak. Then I lised some examples and placed them within the context of my statement. In sum, I analyzed the guy. I meant it sweetly and not at all in a negative way, but that was when I decided I would only use those tools for good.... laugh In other words, SHUDDUPMODE was turned on. I have gathered that others are not so glad to be self aware, if another person points it out.



Now.... the guy I was recently seeing.... he has some boundary issues. I have no problems/qualms about sharing those. That, well that would be using it for good! (to help future women) Of course, that assumes he listens.

Oh this guy can't ever be wrong. He said, "I find most people boring. What goes on inside my own head is more interesting than what most people have to say".

i'm pretty much an open book. i hide nothing any more...but it tends to scare people i think



Yeah, I'm the same way. I've just gotten to the point of prefacing things with "If you don't really want to know... don't ask!" ohwell

kimmi...i have a habit of telling whether anyone asks or cares lol.

but I've come to the conclusion...thanks to many friends here....that at least people know who I am and no one has to wonder. if there are still questions about me...ask and I will tell it.

Opening my big mouth is life long endeavor for me. I'm getting better as I get older though. I tend to now just shake my head and hold my tounge untill it really counts. Don't want to pollute anymore air than I have too.

i'm not talking about hurting feelings...even though my honesty and bluntness has done that without meaning to (sometimes I do mean to lol)

i'm pretty much an open book. i hide nothing any more...but it tends to scare people i think

It's the only way to be.. if they can't handle it then it's not your problem. :smile:
