An EP member friended me. I don't recall having friended her. She asked me to marry her. I could not understand why she asked. Pillorycolin was the name she was called. We seemed to have had a fun time sending messages back and forth. I...

I know myself... And I know exactly who I am...

You won't be able to change me... Unless that's something I want for myself anyway!

So either accept it, or leave it....

However, I'd suggest you take a really good time to know me...

This post is just a little late, but I have to say this.

The best day of the entire year is not any holiday, or even my birthday. April 18th.

This is the date in 1975 that my daddy gave up a lifetime of drinking.

Not a big thing, you...

I dont know why you think what you did is enough for me
I am not asking you to give me something

yet I cant get it why the word " enough" would appear in ur mind

These two songs by one of my favorite artists, Natalie Merchant, pretty much says everything I want to say. Please enjoy and be true to yourself! Blessings.

Thanks for your advice. Thanks for your criticisms. Thanks for your insults.

I have learned. :)

But don't expect me to be the person you want me to be.
I am who I am.

I am living for myself and for Him.. not for you guyz, I don't...

It has taken me a long time to come to terms with who I really am. I tried to be who I was expected to be for years because I knew that that was the only way that my family would accept me. I won't do that any more. I will be who I...

I am always seeking approval, constantly. After all these years of self searching, I realize that my self esteem remains in the toilet. I could buy a new outfit, hear 19 awsome comments, and one bad, and I will focus on that one bad...

I was thrilled to learn that this site really existed. I decided to join in the hope of corresponding with people of like mind.

I suffer from complex post traumatic stress disorder from a rocky childhood/adolescence and have hard wired the need for other's approval into my brain's processes. It's taken years of threapy and hard work to begin to see myself...

I have a lot going on. Sometimes talking and being "personable" is not high up on the list of things to do.... so if you see me on here, and notice me making shot answers to some questions.... please do not assume I want to stay up all...

I am who I am. I am the person I am today for a LOT of reasons. I am not always the person I want to be, but I am me. I am not going to change for anyone, for any reasons. if you don't approve of me, that is your problem, not mine. I am...

I'm trying to be more aware of my approval seeking devices. When I look at it, much of my life has been just that. Fear of being not accepted by others, and as a result living in ways that are untrue to myself.

Of course, it's all...

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

All my life I have seen what is supposedly approved of in life, and it sucks. You're supposed to lie to keep people's feelings from getting hurt. Your supposed to help out people that don't help themselves. Why plain and simple why...

I learned early in my teens that following the crowd and being accepted was a lot of senseless time waste. I was much happier being myself. We were a small tight group then. My friends and I I.. The bad boys..and girls that didn't wear...
