[Andrew, Jr.]

*I try to treat and look upon every human being as a person.

*I help those who I can within my own means.

*People try to take advantage of me.

[Daktari]

not to call me by my full birth name.
I'm a grumpy barsteward
I can whinge for Britain
that I don't cope with change terribly well
that I look like a boy and sing like an angel
that I don't often have hair. Everyone I know is commenting on just how much hair I have at the moment.
that I'm a photographic self-portrait specialist....ego, much!
that I hate wearing my specs but nowadays can barely read without them.
that I own far too many pairs of shoes/boots
and far too many pairs of Levis.

[Soft*Silver]

If you really knew me, you would know:

I shave my head when I need a fresh start on anything hugely significant in my life. Yes, SHAVE. Or I might be talked into a 1" crew cut. But its symbolic of a new start so less is more.

I love canaries and really want one again...

I love American Idol because I love watching dreams have chances to come thru...as well as the oddball auditions that make me laugh. Feeds the sincere and jack ass sides of me.

I tend to isolate. I dont like being around people. The world outside my home feels strangely unfamiliar at times. Home Sweet Home, you might say...

I havent held a baby in my arms in over 8 years. Intentionally.

[Andrew, Jr.]

*I trust very few people now.

*Mint chocolate chip ice cream is my most favorite.

*I love to travel, but hate flying. But I do.

*I get motion sickness very easily.

*I require 10 hours of sleep each night.

*I do not yell.

*I do not believe in hitting or spanking children or anyone for that matter.

*I hate canned veggies and fruit. I enjoy it fresh.

*I am hypersensitive.

*I only take in stray animals. I feel like I am a stray myself.

*I believe in the paranormal.

I typically see the glass as "half full."
I'm always looking for a different and bigger professional challenge.
I hate pretentious intellectual snobbiness.
I'm not much of a housekeeper.
The older I get, the less complicated I want my life to be.

[FeminineAllure]

Get really down during the month of March because the my Mom, one sister and my brother died in March.

Really don't like Miracle Whip!

Take pride in caring for my home.

If you really knew me, you'd know how huge this is.

I feel your pain, I'm sitting here eating the first bowl of grits I've ever had in my life without salt in it. WOW this gives a new meaning to salt free

If you really knew me, you'd know that the breakfast of champions contains grits somewhere in it and grits must be dashed with salt and pepper and butter and cheese.

[princessbelle]

You sound just like my mom, that's how she eats it.

I prefer sugar and butter yummmm. That's why i don't eat grits anymore.

[Quintease]

If you really knew me, you'd know that when I said 'Ow, I've bitten the inside of my mouth' I really mean 'Ow ow OW, I've bitten the inside of my mouth and it HURTS! It's been a week and it STILL HURTS!! Every day is a day of misery and pain as the wound inside my mouth is really hurting me, so GIVE ME SYMPATHY!!!'

Instead people who CLEARLY don't know me say things like, 'Ow, how did you do that? That was a bit silly then, wasn't it?' And I know they DON'T CARE!

*cries* :bigcry:

[nycfem]

That absolutely sucks. I'm so sorry that you are going through this, and I hope that you wake up one day SOON with the pain lessened. It's not funny at all.

[Pixie]

My car is my freedom
My family is my ball and chain
Distance is my key to bearing their weight
I love my job
I can't wait to make a difference in a new life everyday
I openly welcome change
and my actions are always pursued with good intent

[miss entycing]

you'd know that i'm intense about everything i do, or say , or feel, or give.
you'd know that if i'm really wounded, i shut it all down, and i mean it.
you'd know that i have a huge pure heart, and it sometimes gets in the way.
you'd know that i am unconditional- till you hurt me, then all bets are off.
you'd know that i treasure my friendships, especially the tried and true ones.
you'd know that i tend to walk around with blinders, or rose colored glasses on.
you'd know that it also comes honestly, i really try to only see the good.
you'd know that when i see the ugly sides, it honestly devastates me.
you'd know that i could honestly care less if you like me or don't.
you'd know that when i write, i never write about some random 'butch', i write about ME.

[Gemme]

*cries* :bigcry:

If it's been a week and you're still feeling pain (not just soreness), then it's probably infected. The human mouth harbors a LOT of bad bacteria. I would go to a doctor if I were you.

Have you tried gargling with warm salt water to help heal the wound?

If you really knew me, you'd know I have a wealth of trivial information and am not afraid to share it.

:blink:

[MsTinkerbelly]

If you really knew me you would know that the two best days of my life were when my daughter was born, and when Kasey and I were married.:rrose:

[justkim]

I am also a wealth of trivial information... I know just about enough about anything to get myself into trouble...
Gemme, do you find that you look around trying to figure out who said *that* once the words have left your mouth?

[wolfbittenpoet]

If you knew me you'd know I love my typewriter because I can't push delete on it.
That I get tired of storms because I hate thunder. That my best friend in the world has four paws and a tail. That I act strong when all I want to do is scream from mindless terror of a world I can't understand.

[Soft*Silver]

I hate Shirley McClain, The Sound Of Music and Barbara Striesand and have lost dates over this...and was grateful.

I suck a cough drop every night. It use to more than one but I have gotten it under control. But I have to have at least one.

I have dropped 43 lbs since my first surgery..People cant even recognize me from pictures from when I first moved back to Ohio. Of course my hair was very short and silver too...

I am so close to this nightmare to being over that I feel like I am holding my breath all the time..like its a dream...or that I cant believe it until its all done and over with. The American Nightmare as opposed to the American Dream. Some day I might write a book by that title...

[Jesse]

If you really knew me, you would know:

Most of the time I am grateful to simply have a glass, and will make it work whether that glass is half empty or half full.

I have a big heart, and am much more caring than some would imagine me to be.

I believe I can teach a dog to do anything that is physically possible for them to do.

I love to learn. At present, I am learning about vertical, total indoors soil-less gardening using artificial light. I think it very well could be the way of the near future.

[Scorp]

If you really knew me...Where the heck would I begin...

[Daktari]

If you really knew me...

...you'd know what a grumpy bar-steward I am.
...you'd know just how much I love the Woodipotimus
...you'd know I use a computer mouse in each hand.

[justpjhere]

you would know that even though my exterior is tough, im a big softie and sensetive

you would know i miss my dad every day

you would know that unkind words stick in my head forever

you would know that today i need a lil hug...

[cuddlyfemme]

you would know that I'm sensitive and cry easily
you would know how much I love animals
you would know how much I love shoe's
you would know that I'd much rather listen to music than watch tv
you would know that I've always been a Stone Femme

[Gemme]

If you really knew me, you'd know that I firmly believe that every single body is in this world for a very specific reason. You'd also know that I'm growing more and more frustrated not knowing what mine is.

[justkim]

... you would know the detective in me never sleeps...
... I am the one choosing how the relationship with my sisters is played out...
... That coming back to Colorado to help my parents was and is the best choice...
... I am working on becoming a better person every day...
... I have started walking again since the weather has turned a tad bit warmer...
... I don't care for roses... Shasta Daisey's, Tulips, and Daffodils are my preferred flowers...
... I think of you often... and I smile...

[Tommi]

you would know I take one ice cube in my coffee

you would know you could feed me Orville Redenbacher air popped popcorn for breakfast lunch and dinner

you would know you never need to ask me what I want to eat. Just prepare it, call me to the table and see me enjoy

you would know I am easy to please

you would know I love to be teased (f)

[UofMfan]

You would be amongst the very few that do.

[Goo]

If you really knew me, you'd be surprised that even though I act all tough, I'm really a softie.

If you really knew me, you'd see that I have a very artistic side of me. I love things to be "in balance" with each other

If you really knew me, you'd understand why I'm so shy sometimes. I wear my heart on my sleeve, often afraid of change.

If you really knew me, you'd be amazed with some of the weird stuff I can come up with...

If you really knew me, you would see the amazing changes I've made in the past 6 months, I've gone from not giving a flying you-know-what, to someone who is genuinely concerned for herself and others.

[Bit]

If you really knew me, you'd know that I firmly believe that every single body is in this world for a very specific reason. You'd also know that I'm growing more and more frustrated not knowing what mine is.

{{{{{{{{{{{{Gemme}}}}}}}}}}}

I used to get real frustrated about not knowing my purpose either... then one day--and I honestly cannot remember what sparked it--I took a long look not at what I do or what I want to do for a living, not at jobs I've had or wanted, not at careers that bring purpose... but at ME. I took a long look at who I have been and how I have been all through my lifetime, and discovered that there was a common thread going all the way back to childhood.

I make people feel better. Whether I'm making them laugh, listening when their hearts are broken, or just sharing time with them, I make people feel better.

These days there are so many forces arrayed on the side of making people feel worse and worse, I figure making them feel better is a pretty good purpose for my life. When I'm doing okay I bring sunshine and the hope of springtime to everyone; when I'm not okay I still bring love and compassion. That's who I am, what I do, and my purpose for living all rolled into one.

Maybe you can find something in your life that speaks to your purpose like that too? Maybe you've been fulfilling your life's purpose all along and just haven't recognized the value of it yet? We're alike in a lot of ways, love--I'm willing to bet this is one of them.

If you really knew me ... you would know I listen to public radio almost all day and everyday. It's the only thing worth listening nowadays. I keep the radio on 247 in my garage/ working area.
If I had it my way I would have a radio playing in everyroom in my house . which I almost do.
I truely hate television.
I believe movies should be watched in a theater

If you really knew me , you would know that I like almost nothing modern
except art. I wish fast food did not exist.
I Wish dinner parties were still in style.. and that I am really very old fashion when it comes to manners and marriage roles.

I also think that people that lived during the 1800's specifically 1890's and pre 1920 were actually smarter people than today.

To be continued...............

[hpychick]

...I can't watch scary movies - where things could never happen in reality - because I'll have nightmares all night long.

...my favorite genres of film are true stories, mystery/suspense, Sci-Fi, drama and comedy.
...I very seldom like *stupid* comedy.
...my favorite snacks to eat at the theatre are popcorn, raisinettes and Dots, with a Coca-Cola.
...I like to eat the same snacks when I'm watching a movie at home.
...I can't have a conversation and watch a film at the same time b/c I'm afraid to miss the line that gives everything away.
...I like to pay attention to the beginnings of movies b/c that's where I think most of the clues lie.
...I enjoy going to movies alone (because a) no conversation, and b) I don't have to share my snackies!)

You would know that i am sometimes scared of my shadow and other times would fight a lion for my beliefs or yours.

You would know that being raised in the South is something i am very proud of.

You would know that I love sweetarts more than even chocolate.

You would know that "Timmy the Mouse" was my fav childhood book along with "Curious George".

You would know I love the sound of frogs, especially at night in the summertime.

[Abigail Crabby]

If you really knew me - you'd know that my heart stopped twice in the hospital last week. And I now know what a code blue is -

You'd know that things like the above make you really think about your life and the path you are on.

If you really knew me you'd know that life is too short to spend angry and I view every day as a day to start over with a song in my heart, love on my lips, and joy in my heart - oh and that restarts are a good thing lol

[princessbelle]

Here YOU go hon....

You would know...

...I make snap decisions and sometimes want to take them back
...My decisions are 99.8% ruled by my heart
...I only have one logical bone in my body and it's been broken several times
...I cry in my sleep because I've held it in during the waking hours
...I rarely take the advice of others because I have to know something for myself
...I might make friends, but I seldom move from one relationship to another immediately
...I try to laugh so you can't see the tears
...my heart is so broken, and right this minute I don't know how it can ever mend

How since her death I've never felt like I belonged anywhere

How I always see "the writing on the wall"

How much I miss my mom

How I almost died alone in the hospital a couple of years ago

How I'm a survivor.

How I don't judge anyone

How I take people by what I see not what they say

How I'm highly allergic to cats.

How with all this info about me I've not even touched the surface lol

[WingsOnFire]

* I have asthma and the humidity makes it hard for me to breathe.. like today..

* I have a neurotic cat named Jewel who shows her affection to Damon by biting him

* I protect my boys fiercely.

* I am a huge fan of Tinker Bell (and MIGHT carry a Tinker Bell lunch box to work much to the horror of my boss when she saw it :giggle)

For every bruise and break in your heart there is an equal amount of love you give to others. I can just tell that from reading your posts. Opening your heart to others can be painful sometimes but can be extremely rewarding. Dont change who you are.

[Tcountry]

You would know...
...that I will try almost anything ...once
...if I really like it, it becomes a favorite (like chicken spaghetti)
...I believe in God...miracles, angels, & even ghosts
...my 3 girls are the most important people in my life ...I wish I could have them all in the same house
...*thinking I may have to add the boogster to that mix*...^^
...I know what it means to love someone with your whole heart
...I also know how hard it is to let them go (even tho it took me 7yrs to figure it out) they are better off without all the fighting
...how much I appreciate my fiancee...for who she is, her ideas & dreams, & can't wait to spend forever with her

[boitanner]

you would know
that I hate being single

[boitanner]

you would know that I am scared of the dark (yet I am a paranormal investigator)

I love my daughter more than anything in the world

I love making turkey chili

that I am a very lonely boi sometimes

[undone]

If you knew me you'd know that I secretly dream of a fairy tale romance, that I believe that you can not love me with out considering me, that you can not love me with out getting all the pieces in the puzzle, and that I try so hard to stay out of my own way even though I fail several times, but never the same way twice :) someday I will get it right !!!


If you know me you would understand that when I really love I know all about you, the good and the bad and I know that it took the bad to make the good. That I really find the bad as enticing as the good :) I will defend you with my life, that I like to do things like surprise picnics for lunch breaks or a special dinner just cause you matter to me.

If you really knew me you would get that under all of the ice I am sweet kind loving and more emotional that I know what to do with so I box it in. That I take control when I am scared and if you want me to relax I need to see some one I trust take control.

[MsTinkerbelly]

you would know....

The glass is always half full
I am happy most of the time
I LOVE mornings, but I can sleep in until noon on Saturday
I will do almost anything for See's candy:chocolate:

[Greyson]

The See's candy line made me laugh. I got lucky recently. My girlfriend shared her See's candy box full of nuts and chews with me. :)

[MsTinkerbelly]

The See's candy line made me laugh. I got lucky recently. My girlfriend shared her See's candy box full of nuts and chews with me. :)

She really likes you!!!!

[Apocalipstic]

If you really knew me, you would know more than I do right now.

[Mister Bent]

If you really knew me, you'd know I think too many people spend entirely too much time whining, and not nearly enough time doing something about it.

[Kätzchen]

You'll know when I need a good spanking,
a good roll in the hay,
and when to bring me chocolate.

[Gemme]

If you really knew me, you'd know just how tickled pink I was to find mini red velvet cupcakes. Nom!

[violaine]

it does not take much to make me happy-because i already am from within. :moonstars:

[FeminineAllure]

Did I mention slippers make me happy? And belle you truly are beautiful inside and out! And it does not take much at all to make you happy. Baking, oranges, birds, pigs, all animals! Quiet long walks. And...
I collect roosters, angels and cats...literally cats. I have nine feral cats now and my sweet Punkin.
If you really knew me you would know I am finally easing back into my life again after my father passed away recently.
I am going through the stages of grieving but life goes on!

[Elijah]

If you really knew Me... well, you would already know.

[justkim]

If you really knew me you would know...
If you talk to me with food in your mouth I will get up and leave...
Chewing with your mouth open is truly disgusting and I will get up and leave...
I grew up in San Diego and Hawaii...
I came back to Colorado to help my parents...
I try so very hard to have a positive attitude... but some days I fall short of that goal..

[moxie]

If you really knew me you would know...


*I was adorable until I hit the second grade. Then I got all angsty. I have one picture of the cuteness and one of the angsty; they are on facebook and were posted by others. Those are the only pictures I have of my childhood and they aren't even mine.

*I have to have a piece of Kroger brand string cheese every day when I come home from work. It tastes delicious and it helps with my low levels of Vitamin D. No other string cheese will do.

*I am a planner. I ruminate on the planning of things. It gives me a sense of control and a comfort. I can be spontaneous; however, it's not an everyday thing.

*I am rather motherly and have been called "mother hen" more times than I care to admit.

[Stud_puppy1991]

If you really knew me......


you'd know i have been bullied and bashed since age 6.
that I had a bad past.
That I can give you all the love you want and need.
You'd understand i will do anything for those i care about.
You'd know I'd sacrifice my own happiness so other people would have it.
You'd know i'm a person with a big heart.
you'd know i am myself, nobody can change me.

[hpychick]

...I love my children and grandchildren so much that words or actions will never do that love appropriate justice
...I don't like being in large crowds of people
...I have many favorites of the same type of thing - sorta like this: my favorite ice cream is Chunky Monkey by Ben & Jerry's, but my other favorite is Nutty Coconut by Baskin Robin, and then my other favorite is Mint Chocolate Chip by Turkey Hill and there are even more than those few!
...I am energized by being with people (many people are energized by being alone)
...I feel at peace in the woods and on the beach - although I'm not a fan of sand.
...I rarely watch television....in fact, the last time I turned the TV on was about two months ago.
...I am inspired to write by new friends and happenings in my life.

[Kätzchen]

then you know that:

My heart is a deep ocean
I'm genuine and sincere
My sense of perfection is beautifully flawed
My sense of reality is present-based
I'm very sensitive in every sense possible

[bigbutchmistie]

If you really knew me :

You'd know that I am so tired of the dating drama.

That Im ready to settle down.

That I feel accomplished in all areas of my life except this one. I can never get it right.

That I am jealous of all those having their happily ever after lol

[gotoseagrl]

you'd know i struggle with social phobia, however ...

i like being bold ... *some*times ... like when i paint my nails red.
shyness doesn't hold me back from saying something i really want or need to say - *especially* in pursuit of justice.
i warm up.
warming up with the right person can open the floodgates.
being quiet doesn't make me the "one to watch out for"... unless you do something unjust lol. :whine:
with the right people, i look forward to visits & never-ending phone calls.
reserving my thoughts, words or actions does pay off sometimes.
i push myself "out there" ... *some*times.
i love to laugh & make people laugh.
yes i will end up being a "cat lady", but there are lots of different types of happy cat people, including couples. :ballcat:
i dont have any big scary dangerous secrets i'm hiding.
i love being outside.
i love to travel.
i do love my friends & i try.
i love & cherish genuine, honest, humble people.
i experience pure joy & gratitude when someone reaches out to me in a positive way.
i love helping people.
i love my alone space, but i like sharing it with my Significant Other even more.
just because i can't stand talking with a spotlight to a group doesn't mean i dont like belonging in one.
some things that are scary at first feel liberating afterwards - like the first few times flying alone when i got lost in the biggest airports and found my way.
the things i enjoy most in life are far from boring.
i don't need people or substances just to have a good time.
i have a lot of the same dreams as an extravert.
i admire those who can do what i am afraid of.
the end.

[Sachita]

If you really knew me you'd know that one way or another I get what I want and that even wild horses won't keep me from my dreams.
You'd know that pain only makes me stronger and that I can not be defeated.

[MissPriss]

If you really knew me....You would know that....

I have been entirely on my own since 15.
I graduated with high school with honors while working 2 jobs.
I was prom queen twice.
I graduated the academy with Distinguished honors.
I have accomplished many things in life but my ultimate goal is to be a good mother some day.
Im very opinionated and I stand behind them no matter what.
I am very hard to get to know.
I do not trust easily, if I give you that and you break it you are finished.

[bigbutchmistie]

If You Really Knew Me :

You'd know how shy I am in person

That I will never get the courage to ask a femme out

That I dont trust easily

That I am very stubborn

That I watch t.v. alot

That I am introverted on alot of things. But some things you cant shut me up about. Especially if you piss me off.

You'd know that what you see is what you get.

I dont hide who I am from anyone

I cant stand slow drivers

I have no patience

And have no edit button for my mouth. God is continually putting his hands over my mouth. :)

[puddin']

you'd know i'm silly, sappy, irish, american, kiwi, and full on...

[deb_U_taunt]

If you really knew me, you would know I am more likely to choose comfort over vanity.

If you really knew me, you would know I love fiercely and am loyal to a fault.
If you really knew me, you would know I hear how strong I am daily and I am in reality very fragile.

[bigbutchmistie]

If you really knew me you'd know

I believe that trust isnt given its earned

That when I fall in love I love with every fiber of my being

That the older I get the more it takes to get my heart

How sick and tired I am of dating games

How I havent had anyone that made me feel "alive" in years

How I have never wanted children

How LDR's arent for me

How I admire those that can do LDR's.

How I am a homebody

[LaneyDoll]

If you really knew me, you would know that...
* I eat, sleep & breathe every passion in my life.
* I think the night air has an electric charge in it that is unmatched during the day. It is both invigorating & sensual.
* I do not own "sensible shoes." All my heels are at least 3" high and some are as high as 6". And I can run in them.

:hk24:

* The tooth fairy at my house is a BITCH FROM HELL!!! She leaves a trail of gold glitter from the bedside, out the bedroom, down the hall, through the living room and out the front door onto the patio.
* I believe that kids need magic in their lives so I will gladly clean up after that Tooth Fairy Bitch who makes a mess in my home.
* My oldest son and I "spar." We will literally fight in the living room-it is left over from his days of Tae Kwon Do training when he needed a partner.
* My oldest son & I share music & have concerts while riding down the road. And, I am teaching him to drive-at 13 and only in the apt complex.
* My middle son is called "happy kid." I gave him that nickname because he is always cheerful. He loves his nickname.
* My middle son is my artist. He and I share a love for art.
* My youngest son will still creep into bed with me. I will still let him since I know that those days will end soon and my heart will long for them.
* My youngest son still calls me "Mommy." The other two typically call me "Laney" and I am fine with that. As long as they address me with respect, I do not dictate the name they use.
*I am not a cool mom and I do not want to be. But I treat my kids like little grown ups, I pick my battles & the kids are turning out well.

:sparklyheart:

If you really knew me,

You'd know there was much more that people didn't know about me.

[1QuirkyKiwi]

If you “REALLY” knew me…

You’d know that I have a softness and tenacity with an innate clumsiness at times.

I can be Conquering and vulnerable, yet, I’m thoughtful, nurturing, loving, and affectionate and feel things deeply.

I’m very intuitive, instinctual and have non-rational perception of people and situations – this can unnerve some people.

I’m very spiritual, yet, sometime I can be rebellious (within the law).

I’ve lived and worked in 36 countries in 20 years.

Despite working in the Funeral and Mortuary Sciences, I’m the least morbid person you’ll meet!

I’m a former Para-Olympic Swimmer.

I’ve had a phobia of Clowns since early childhood, yet, I’m OK! around Mimes.

I love fruit and could happily eat it all day……..I swear I was a Fruit Bat in a previous life.

I always sleep with the hall light on as I’m afraid of the dark.

I don’t own a TV and haven’t done for years, although I watch DVDs on my laptop.

I have to tone down my accent so people can understand me when I speak (this does not include fellow Kiwis or my family).

I love working and making things with my hands.

I’m a loyal and supportive friend unless you do something to hurt me, then I’ll have nothing more to do with you.

I say what I feel/think and this has been taken as me being hurtful unintentionally.

I can and do have a fiery temper when pushed too far!

I love and adore my furbabies – in fact all animals - I take in unwanted, abandoned and neglected animals.

I love sitting and feeding Swans – I’d love a Swan sanctuary.

I’m not judgmental, yet, I am observational about people and their habits.

I believe everyone has a right to their feelings and no-one has the right to tell you otherwise.

I love silly, playful banter and I’ve been known to play practical jokes on people when they least expect it!

If you "REALLY" knew me, you'd know that this is just a little of who I am.

[smouldering]

You would know I have changed a lot over the recent years..

I am still sensitive and really hate to let people down - but i now know how to let go of people who are toxic in my life.

I am still shy and soft spoken- But am no longer afraid to stand up for myself when needed and if i am comfortable around you, i can be the life of the party.

I try not to take anything or anyone for granted and also try not to assume, but sometimes it gets the best of me.

I have a teen aged daughter with Aspergers Syndrome

I am a very private person and don't share much about myself unless I truly trust you, and even then it takes time for me to be completely open.

Trust is very important to me, once its been broken, it is almost never the same.

I never feel like I belong anywhere..

[Tcountry]

...you'd know I have several people that adopted me into their families.
...you'd see me pay respect when none should be paid.
...you'd know I expect nothing less than your best effort. Failure is okay.
...you'd see how quickly I read.
...you'd know that if the movie/show doesn't have captioning, I won't watch it.
...you'd see the different sides of me and know why they're there.
...you'd know why forgiveness was forgiven, and understand my boundaries regarding those situations.
...you'd know that you may randomly see me start signing, especially when I'm working out a problem.
...you'd know to not stare at me when that happens. Watch all you want, don't stare. It's rude.

[KimbaYLRF]

you'd know how sensitive I am
how I don't like crowds
I stand up for what I know to be right

I often get inspired and write poems
I have a big heart
I wish I could own a farm and have as many homeless animals as possible there
I love the smell of a farm, it gives me a "high"
I think I was meant to be on a farm it is so relaxing

[HoustonHuny]

I was thinking about responding to this thread but then I thought it sorta feels like a resume. I read a lot of resumes on my job and what I look for are accomplishments and outside validations.

So I think I will wait until I have proven the things that I would put on this list to the rest of you.

Then I will write it. :)

HH

[bigbutchmistie]

If You Really Knew Me You'd Know :

My bark is worse than my bite so to speak.

I absolutely love chocolate

I cant eat enough Mexican Food

I take life as it comes and roll with the punches.

There have been very few times I couldnt roll with said punches. The death of my mom was one of those times.

I am extremely independent. And appear as Superman to people who know me in real time.

I only take my Superman cap off when I am home alone. And can finally exhale and just relax.

I have no edit button. I say what is exactly on my mind

I cant stand crowds

I have a huge heart

This girl is going to bed.

lmao .... I am shocked !!!!! ;)

[sara-bera]

If you really knew me, you'd know...

... my favorite color is green.
... that I very rarely cuss, instead saying things such as "good heavens," or "oh my gosh." Earlier this week, I pulled out an "oh my stars!"
... I've gotten angry only twice this year and I plan to go a full year without it in 2012.
... that I'm indecisive.
... that when I was little, I really wanted to grow up to be an entomologist... until I learned that I would have to kill the insects to do it.
... my favorite band is the Tragically Hip but my favorite song is 'From the Beginning' by Emerson, Lake and Palmer. If the Hip did a cover of that song, I would probably be all set in my musical life.
... I only drink tea, juice, water, and the rare cup of coffee.
... that I like odd numbers.
... I solve math problems in my head when I'm stressed to keep from panicking.
... that I'm gullible.
... that I tend to read books in a matter of hours unless I actively pace myself.
... I am equally right and left brained... and ambidextrous.
... that I really am this happy, positive, and peaceful.
... that I don't take medication of any sort, unless I could die if I don't. It's even in my medical records.
... that love people despite being very shy.
... I don't like to argue and it makes me withdraw when someone argues at me, even though I'm not disagreeing or saying anything at all.
... that while I am feminine, I do not ID as a femme.
... at Christmas and my birthday, I donate money to charities. I especially like the Whale Center of New England and I've adopted several whales.
... that one of the people I got angry at this year was a manager at the office.
... that I refuse to grow up till I'm at least eighty years old. Maybe not even then.
... I have an urge to hug people when I see them looking sad or hurt; friends, coworkers, strangers, etc.

[uglyboi]

If you really knew me, you would know

I have hiked 50 feet of the Appalachian Trail.
my third grade teacher cracked a plastic ruler over my head and broke it.
my worst fear is being buried alive.
that when I am bored I like to try and catch 25 grapes in my mouth at one time.
that I sort of don't like donuts much. But I do love tequila and donuts!! And cake!!!!!
that I work hard and play low keyed, have too or I couldn't work hard.
I had a cyst on my thyroid gland in the shape of Mickey Mouse.

[HoustonHuny]

I have a VP in my title at work...not to brag...but to let you all know that with all my years in management, I don't participate in drama or back room gossip. What you see is what you get with me. I will always be forthright and upfront with you. Sometimes that may feel uncomfortable as people generally like to avoid conflict, but at least you can always know where you stand with me.

I don't know any of you on this board. I have not had any interaction either in real time or online with the posters on this board (except Vlasta), at least I don't think I do.

I am the last person in the world to hold a grudge. Sure I get mad, but by the next day, it is completely forgotten. I don't know why I am like that but I sure am glad that I am. Holding grudges only hurts the one who is holding them.

I just came here to make friends, I have no hidden agendas.

If anyone is ever offended by what I post, I would surely hope that you would come to me and tell me, preferably in private.

Now I am going to go find a smiley appropriate to this post...wish me luck!

[Vlasta]

I have a VP in my title at work...not to brag...but to let you all know that with all my years in management, I don't participate in drama or back room gossip. What you see is what you get with me. I will always be forthright and upfront with you. Sometimes that may feel uncomfortable as people generally like to avoid conflict, but at least you can always know where you stand with me.

I don't know any of you on this board. I have not had any interaction either in real time or online with the posters on this board (except Vlasta), at least I don't think I do.

I am the last person in the world to hold a grudge. Sure I get mad, but by the next day, it is completely forgotten. I don't know why I am like that but I sure am glad that I am. Holding grudges only hurts the one who is holding them.

I just came here to make friends, I have no hidden agendas.

If anyone is ever offended by what I post, I would surely hope that you would come to me and tell me, preferably in private.

Now I am going to go find a smiley appropriate to this post...wish me luck!

:newbie:

My Huny Bunny ,
I love you so much , I wish everyone was like you , straight shooter no drama , no BS . I am all for it . Life is too short for all unnecessary crap .

Will you still help me with my English ? Correct me as you use to ? ;)
Girl you are real and true friend , I wish I can get rid of this monster house and be closer to you . Friends as you don't come around too often .

hugs and kisses

[Sassy]

If you really knew me... you'd know my love of all things viking, pirate and/or ninja stems from my obsession with shiny doom-bringing objects wielded with flair.

If you really knew me... you'd know to buckle your seat belt when I drive because I love speed. Zoom zoom, baby!

If you really knew me... you'd know I make a mean roast chicken 'n' taters for dinner and a delicious french toast for breakfast.

If you really knew me... you'd know I fall in love as easily as other people fall out of a boat. And you'd know what book that saying came from. ;)

If you really knew me... you wouldn't try to change me -- you wouldn't want to.

[Kätzchen]

I have a wide circle of acquaintances, but a small circle of friends who love me so beautifully and I love them back! They say I've changed their life in some way (for the better) and I feel the same way about them.

I am a very private person but my personality is highly contagious.

I give the best I have and save the worst of me for people who really know me. I know I can talk about unvarnished stuff with them in ways that I can't do or be here online. I'd get in a lot of trouble. Trust me.

I tend to be life long friends with people who dig bringing their creative reality to the equation of mutuality. People I associate with are rarely anything like myself yet we compliment and bring out the best in each other.

I'm strangely intelligent. I often embarrass myself often by my own natural curiosity and stark openness. Sometimes I feel good about this and other times I wonder if I am cursed.

[uglyboi]

I made a quilt out of cocktail napkins once.

The worst place that I have been stung by a bee was on my tongue. I was walking and talking (go figure) and before I knew it there was something weird in my mouth that I spit out. I didn’t know if I was going to have an allergic reaction, so I basically sat down and waited to see if my tongue was going to swell and choke me to death.

When I was young I had a fascination with briefcases, until I finally got one and realized they weren't all that exciting.

My favorite vegetable is the avocado, which is technically a fruit. My favorite true vegetable is the artichoke.

[LesboNascarFan]

If you really knew me:

- I am shy until I get to know you
- I love cats and dogs
- I only play games on the xbox 360
- I don't do drama unless it is a tv show, movie or a book
- I love to read
- I don't judge people
- I believe everything happens for a reason
- I am very loyal and supportive
- I have a very strange/weird sense of humor
- I am an avid The Ohio State University sports fan - Go Buckeyes!
- I am honest

Fan

[Vlasta]

if you really know me
I am not a mean spirited person .
I tried to communicate with people the best I can .
I cry often when I read the boards and see a struggle some people are going through.
I tried to understand everyone on the boards and where they are coming from .
I don't judge people since we are all coming from a different backgrounds .

this is just for starters , I will be back with some more .

[uglyboi]

If you really knew me you would know that

I am extremely competitive

I have slept in a Wigwam

Apparently I confuse people a lot. I don’t intend to, but it does happen anyway, and when I try to go backwards from confusing them, I end up confusing them even more. That’s when an “ugh” comes into play, followed by a mere “never mind”. But I do still wonder. I hate that feeling; it’s like a hunger for wonder that can’t be satisfied until the confusion is gone.

Butterscotch (the flavoring) annoys me to its fullest potential. I mean, it’s so annoying because it just lasts and lasts and lasts. Surprisingly enough there has yet to be a gum flavor consisting of buttescotch. But I’m serious when I say that it literally lasts for a long time. I don't like to chew it, and I wouldn’t want it in a mint form, but the flavor butterscotch in a hard-candy form just seems to last a long time. As I’m sucking on that stupidly golden and round thing, I’m only hoping and wishing and praying to be almost done with it (because spitting it out would simply be both a waste of money AND a waste of my time (time spent and/or time used). But I do suppose it has its purpose. A lot of people I know like it, and a lot of people use it for cooking. Therefore, maybe it’s not such a bad thing after all.

I hate tuna fish

At least once a week, a woman from Brazil calls me asking to speak to her son "Thiago". She gets very angry when I explain that I don't know anyone by that name and to stop calling me.

I have never been to South Dakota.

[not2shygrrl]

[WomenMoveMe]

You would be one of the very few.

[genghisfawn]

My socks don't always match.

I wear my hair up regularly, my picture in the gallery notwithstanding.

I make the best out of having been born in the wrong era.

I read children's literature - things by Anna Sewell, Lucy Maud Montgomery and Louisa May Alcott. They keep me from hardening.

Secrets stop with me. There are thousands I'll take to the grave and room for thousands more.

Before my morning coffee I am the meanest bitch on the planet, thus I don't speak.

[Mr Nice Guy]

If you knew me you would know....
That I'm a rare butch.
I'm a very happy person.
I'm always nice to those who are nice to me.

[Novelafemme]

you would know the following:

* I am stronger now that I have ever been in my life. And it feels great!

* Even though I make mistakes (some pretty huge ones) it is never my intention to hurt anyone or cause anyone pain. I used to always think that if I manipulated a scenario just right, no one would get hurt and everyone would be happy. Magical thinking, I know.

* This is the happiest I have ever been.

* I don't take anything for granted. Ever.

* I like animals more than people 92% of the time.

* I fall more in love with my daughters every day. I have ZERO desire to claim ownership of them. I am simply blessed to help guide them as they grow and mature into capable and responsible adults.

* I love manual labor and hard work. I grew up on a farm where we worked from sun-up to sun-down. I really don't know any other way.

* I can make you dizzy with my need to always be busy. ;) My mom used to say that she looked forward to when I came down with a cold because I would actually be still. lol

* I have zero tollerance for animal/child abuse. If I see someone behaving negatively toward either, I will not hesitate to step in. Even if the poorly behaving person is a 700lb man. <gulp>

* I am terrible about my personal safety. I guess I do take something for granted! I assume that people have good intentions and won't hurt me. Even though I have been victimized in the past.

* I am not shy. At all. ;)

[justkim]

If you really knew me you would know... I would like to believe that I am fearless... but I am NOT.
That no matter how much you are hurting there is ALWAYS room for Love...
If you really knew me you would know that I am not a girl who likes roses... give me Shasta daisy's, Gerber daisy's, tulips, or sweet pea's and I am happy... If you really knew me you would know that it is really all about the little things...

[Mr Nice Guy]

[aishah]

if you really knew me you would know...

...i've done my best to grieve my parents' deaths but it feels like my life is defined by before my parents died and after they died (partly because i lost so much of my family afterward). sometimes it feels like the apocalypse happened and this is, like, the post-apocalyptic world. it's hard to remember what life was like before.
...i love easily but it's hard for me to trust people.
...i love people :) and life. i'm optimistic and smiling most of the time, even when things are hard. not because i'm idealistic or because i don't know what tragedy and pain are like, but just because that's who i am.

[Soft*Silver]

I dont feel like I am in my 50's emotionally. I feel like I am in my 30s.

I dont feel like I am in my 50s physically. I feel like I am in my 70s.

I am still a go getter and have done just about everything I ever wanted to do in life, except the balloon ride. That still needs to happen

I am not afraid to take risks. I also know when not to take them now. LOL. Seasoned with age....

I cook a fine meal and bake even better

I love my friends and family dearly

I love comic books. Not graphic novels. Old fashioned comic books. Richie Rich. Hot Stuff. Casper.

I collect horse nick nacks

I like ears and am amazed at how we totally ignore them!

[Mr Nice Guy]

Then you'd know that I have a kind soul.

[Corkey]

You'd know I don't play favorites.
That my wife is the most important person in my life.
That I have a sarcastic since of humor.
That my friends are who they are because of their humanism.
That I don't do the drama llama, they need leashes and I want them to run free and well away from me.
That life is short, and at this age I have fewer years ahead of me than behind.
That because I know that life is short it is therefore precious and to be used wisely, not to hurt other people or to advance my own ego.
Someday we're all gonna have a come to death moment, I want to have been known as one who did so with courage and humility.
And if you really knew me you'd all know what a privilege it is to have some of you as family, and yes you know who you are.

[Julien]

If you really knew me:
1. You’d know that I am a loyal friend, lover, and companion.
2. I do forgive, but it takes a while.
3. When I love someone I love deeply
4. I pull out all the stops to take care of and be with her.
5. I may be a “good guy”, but I can be the right guy for the right woman.

[LaneyDoll]

If you really know me, you would know...

~ I am a very protective mama bear when my kids are involved; this extends to Riley ;)

~ I love thunderstorms

~ I prefer small tokens as opposed to huge gestures; I do love huge gestures but not all the time.

~ The way to make me smile is through complimenting me; yes, I am vain like that. I think I get this from growing up in the shadow of my step-sister who was considered the beauty.

~ There are often times that I really do not go to work at the club. Sometimes I truly, truly, truly do not want to go. At this time, I hear the lyrics to "Meet Virginia" by Train.

Well, she wants to be the queen
Then she thinks about her scene
Well, she wants to live her life
Then she thinks about her life

Pulls her hair back as she screams
I don't really wanna be the queen

Then, I start gettting ready to go and find the routine to be soothing and I feel a lot better.

~ If you REALLY knew me, you would know that I would not change a thing ;)

:sparklyheart:

[Mr Nice Guy]

If you really knew me you would know that I love looking at pictures of Femmes in their little black dress. I think black is a hot color on women. :)

[not2shygrrl]

if you really knew me then you would know that life right now is seemingly hard or complicated no matter which way I turn......

if you really knew me then you would know that it totally sucks being single right now......

if you really knew me you would know how totally disheartened I feel right about now knowing that some people have a visual in their heads about who it is they want and they totally over look another because if that vision.

if you really knew me then you would know sometimes it feels like never....

[~ocean]

if u really knew me then u would know how i take my coffee in the morning ~~

[rustedrims]

If you really knew me you would know that when i get quiet and stare off in space i am thinking of something i can fix or make easer for you or i am going to buy you something you desperatley need.

[*Anya*]

If you really knew me, you would know how sensitive I am and how easily I cry at things of beauty such as fireworks.

I just love them.

[LaneyDoll]

If you really knew me you would know that I recently took a stand that likely will or likely has cost me a few friends and could make life at the club different than it was before.

You would also know that I firmly believe that those who talk the talk really should walk the walk.

And, you would know that integrity is super important to me.

:sparklyheart:

[~ocean]

((( laney ))) ^ 5 grl :)

[LaneyDoll]

((( laney ))) ^ 5 grl :)

Thanks ocean! It was not an easy thing to do. But I was tired of someone being a bully and I spoke up. Thankfully the actions were mostly directed to me and not someone else. And thank God that I have Riley on my side. It is so much easier to stand when you know you do not stand alone.

:sparklyheart:

[Amber2010]

If you really knew me you would know I am a great actress. I am able to keep my voice happy when inside I am screaming
If you really knew me you would see that my constant excessive talking is a protection thing
If you knew me you would really know….I crave laughing and happiness and hate to see dark clouds so I try to ignore the stress that comes with the things that happen in my life.
If you knew me you would know.. I work more than anyone should.. worry about others before myself. “A caregiver” tries to help others and it usually ends up with hurting myself to satisfy them…
If you knew me you would know I always wish to be the one who is taken care of .. to not have to fix .. to not have to live my life for others but can’t seem to stop…
If you knew me you would know my friends are my world and so very important to me because they are a part of my life not because they have to be but because they choose to be. 
If you knew me you would know in spite of everything that has happened I still believe life is a wonderful thing and that we really should wake up every day trying to make it the best day of our lives…..

[~ocean]

if you really knew me ~~ u would know how much i love music ~~ all genre's ~~ can we share what we both like ? ~~ will u let me have my own then ~

if u really knew me ~~ u would know how I adore music in the backround while enjoy the day w. hym ~~ doing what we have to do ~~ melt into eachother, to do what we want to do ~

if u really knew me ~~ I would surcome to ur scent ~~ move to the beat ~~ follow ur lead ~

[Julien]

If you really knew me you would know that I am a complex person, but not so complex that you can't know me for who I am. I am a challenge not a deterrent.

[prettyboyreg]

If you really knew me you wouild know that:

I am a passionate and compassionate guy
I honestly love my Mother
I believe in giving back to my community in anyway I can
I am honest and loyal
I will do anything I can to help anyone
My passions are coffee and Craft beer
I surround myself with people that I admire
It takes a while to get to know me, but once you do you will not be disappionted.

Reg

[Mr Nice Guy]

If you really knew me then you'd know that I'm not your average butch. :)

[2qt]

I am passionate about writing, playing and listening to music.....

I love yellow roses and rain on a tin roof.....

I love nature, animals, and all living things and respect it's circle of life....

I like the simple things that money just can't buy.....

My idea of romance isn't the act of sex but the act of the heart....

Just because you say I love you doesn't mean I want to shack up in a house together in the 1st week, month or year.....

Just because i'm single doesn't mean I want to bed the 1st person that tells me I am beautiful.....

I am a mother 1st and a lover 2nd....

Scary movies spook me....

I tend to say things without thinking 1st.....

And my perfume is obsession.....

[ferret]

Even though I flirt, it doesn't mean I'll just settle for something.

I'm loyal until you intentionally hurt me.

I love photography, and it's something I want to get better at.

I enjoy good coffee and good beer.

I can be incredibly stubborn.

Sue

[Blade]

If you really knew me you'd know eletronic gadgets are not my forte. I get quite agadamnvated with them rather quickly. I threaten to take a hammer to them or throw them in the driveway and run over them with the truck. Then I calm down and call a life line or try to look up on line how to do or undo as it may be what I've done.

[SleepyButch]

If you really knew me you would know that:

I am shy at first. Just because I may be quiet does not mean that I think I am better than anyone.

I am always there for my friends, no matter what time of the day or night.

I have a great sense of humor and like to joke around.

Just because I am Butch, does not mean that I cannot get my feelings hurt.

I am harmless, unless I feel that connection with someone. At that point.. I may try to charm my way in.

I am a good person. I give all the time and take very little.

If you knew me, you would know that:

I would never intentionally hurt you, regardless of what you may think about the conversation.

[TimilDeeps]

If you really knew me you'd know why I am awake right now . . .

[ferret]

Even though I consider myself butch, I'd say I'm a bottom.

I'm a grammar and spelling "nazi."

I'm a clean freak and I can't stand clutter, but I'm not OCD by any means.

I typically fall hard and fast for someone, and that's burned me more than once.

I've never done illegal drugs.

[not2shygrrl]

if you really knew me you would know that I would not welcome myself into your world without you initiating the invitation.....

if you really knew me you would know that although I am not shy, I am not a dominant woman.....and like myself that way!......

if you really knew me you would know that I am chemically blonde ! :)

[yotlyolqualli]

you would know why I love the snow...

you would know why I love to sing...

you would know why I dread mother's day...

If you knew me, you would know why I don't casually flirt, I don't casually date, I don't casually fuck...

If you knew me, you would understand why I keep myself to myself, except with those who I trust enough to get that close.

If you knew me, you would know that I smell like gardenia's, though I wish I could find a hyacinth or lilac perfume...

and if you knew me, you would know that my favorite flower is the daisy... and you would know why.

[~ocean]

if u really knew me we would stay up for whats left of the night ~
i'd be making coffee and going down the beach and watch the world wake up

[Mr Nice Guy]

If you really knew me then you'd know that I'm looking for you. I just haven't found you yet.

[~ocean]

If you really knew me then you'd know that I'm looking for you. I just haven't found you yet.

Did you check under the bed ?

[SleepyButch]

If you really knew me you would know that:

If I have not eaten, I do get grumpy, which is why I have been nicknamed Oscar after the infamous grouch.

My family is very important to me.

If I say I am here for you, I mean it... no matter what.

I am a big harmless flirt but when I find that special someone, I'll only have eyes for her.

If I am attracted to you, I will make that well known.

I tend to care about people even after just meeting. It' s just my nature.

I love to make people laugh. It brings me great joy.

[Glenn]

If you really knew me you would know that the first thing I do when I wake up is go outside on my deck, and yell "F*** you all!" I don't know why I do this.Sometimes my senior neighbor will be walking in the woods nearby and holla back, "Good-Morning!" Lol.

[rustedrims]

Hey Glenn i like that.Just told my friends yesterday that when i cause "a little" smoke in the air from burning my weeds cleaning up the yard all my neighbors can kiss my a#s and they need to line up for it cause i am avaliable.Snobbie people with their retirement and golf clubs.

[LoyalWolfsBlade]

you would know...
I am a genuine person. I would give my friends the shirt off my back if they needed it. I truly am a protector by nature. I do not like to see even strangers hurting and will I tell you I am here for you I mean it and am not hitting on you. I love all different types of people but can not stand any type of intolerance. That my true friends are my family and that family comes before I do sometimes. That my bio family is not anything I would wish on my worse enemy however, I am there for them when they need me. I adore my nieces and nephews and that they are my friends on FB so that I can make sure nobody is trolling after them and so that they can always reach me.
you would know..
That just because I id as masculine I do not hate all men or women that id as lesbians. That just because I male-id does not mean you can't hurt my feelings or that I don't cry. That although part of who I am includes being a Dom and Daddy that does not mean I am not Old School or that I would ever force anyone into an experience they did not want to be in. That I have been in relationships with butches and bois in the past and I am not ashamed of it.
you would know..
That I do not go into chat on here. Why I am still awake after being up for 22 hours straight. That although I change my about me often does not mean I have changed just that I am sharing new information about myself. I love music of all genres. It is not the genre that draws me in but the beat and the lyrics.
My favorite color
My favorite scent on me
My favorite scent on you
When I finally tell you I love you I mean it they are not just words to me.

[Beloved]

If you really knew me you would know that the first thing I do when I wake up is go outside on my deck, and yell "F*** you all!" I don't know why I do this.Sometimes my senior neighbor will be walking in the woods nearby and holla back, "Good-Morning!" Lol.

I can't stop laughing. This really cracked me up. You're awesome. :superfunny:

[ferret]

If you really knew me, you'd know that I've never given up hope for the one who's my other soulmate, other half, etc. Even though I've set myself up plenty of times for hurt and disappointment, I still hope and desire that for myself.

If you really knew me, you'd know that I'm my own worst enemy. No one can hurt me any more or punish me any more than I punish myself.

If you really knew me, you'd know that I'm more than a name on a screen. I'm more than the words I type, and gee, I actually have feelings.

If you really knew me, you'd know I struggled with depression. I can function okay and not have to struggle with getting up in the morning, but this has been something I've had to deal with since I was a teenager.

If you really knew me, you'd know that I came from an abusive family. My father drank, he was mean when he drank, so I'm sure you can put two and two together. I haven't spoken with him since 1994 (my choice), and I'm better not having that bullshit in my life.

If you really knew me, you'd know that I wished that I was less wound up and uptight pretty much all the time, and people can feel that when they're around me. It's not much fun for them, either.

[Ginger]

If you really knew me, you'd love me.

[*Anya*]

you would know...
That just because I id as masculine I do not hate all men or women that id as lesbians.

What does having a masculine ID have to do with not hating "all men or women that ID as lesbians"??

[Miss_J]

You would perhaps understand why silly little things are so important to me.

[thedivahrrrself]

If you really knew me, you'd know why I have no pity for almost anyone, even though I think I'm pretty compassionate. Pity is just not in my vocabulary.

IYRKM, you'd know when you lose my attention, but you wouldn't take it personally.

IYRKM, you'd know I'm long-winded and there's much more to come...

[lusciouskiwi]

that if I'm really upset I tend to isolate myself

If you really knew me you'd know the impact my father's violence had on all of us.

If you really knew me you'd know about the only two songs I know all the lyrics to are Bohemian Rhapsody and Mahnamana

If you really knew me you'd be coming over to Malaysia for a holiday because I love playing tour guide

If you really knew me, you'd know that for me to say what I *really* feel is a big deal because it's not always easy for me

If you really knew me, you'd know that if I try to make amends or right a hurt my actions may have caused you, it's because I know personally that life is short

[Mr Nice Guy]

If you really knew me then you'd know that I have strong shoulders to lean on and it's ok to lean.

[thedivahrrrself]

IYRKM, you'd know I work in spurts instead of spreading things out. This means I get involved in a project for entire days sometimes instead of doing little bits at once. My "flow" is very important for finishing things. I find I don't finish a lot of things I start if I try to piece them out.

IYRKM, you'd know I'm a harder worker than you might imagine from my current level of productivity.

IYRKM, you'd know that, although I am pretty self-motivated, it's nice to have someone who pushes me to be better. I am better when someone expects the best from me, particularly if that person is someone I admire.

IYRKM, you'd know I'm not as tough as I present myself to be and that my feelings get hurt quite easily, though if you don't know me well, you may never realize when they do.

[stepfordfemme]

-You'd know how much I struggle with being vulnerable

-You'd know how much I'm working on making my life happen

-You'd know that I really just want to go on a Buddhist meditative silent retreat or to the mountains for a few days.

-You'd know that I've made some scary changes.

[LoyalWolfsBlade]

What does having a masculine ID have to do with not hating "all men or women that ID as lesbians"??

If you really knew me you would know that I have been accused of those two things on a consistent basis since I was 15 in my rel life experience.

If you really knew me you would know I am capable of being single. That I do not need someone to complete me I want someone instead to compliment what I have to offer in a relationship.

If you really knew me you would know I love to travel although I have not been outside of the U.S. yet.

If you really knew me you would know I have a thirst for knowledge and I am constantly trying to learn something new.

[Beloved]

you would know I'm a keeper and I'm rare.
you would know I am good at assessing and making sense out of people's feelings.
you would know I'm open, loving, and affectionate.
you would know I fall in love a little too fast and I am working on slowing it down.
you would know that I could make a real "type A" personality batshit insane
you would know I had 2 relationships that could've worked out if they happened at a different stage in our lives. The other parties agree, but you can never go back. Timing is everything.
you would know my positives outweigh my negatives.
you would never want to let me go.

You have been "accused" of being a lesbian?

WTF?

People call me a lesbian. I would not call it an accusation.

I call it my identity.

[LoyalWolfsBlade]

WTF?

People call me a lesbian. I would not call it an accusation.

I call it my identity.

No I have been accused of hatting all men and all women that ID as lesbians since I was 15 because I have a masculine identity. Which was your original question. Sorry for not making it clearer.

[girl_dee]

If you really knew me ...


you would know that i'm not so tough and my feelings are actually pretty easily hurt. i try not to let things bother me, but they do hurt.

When my feelings get hurt i get angry with myself for letting that happen.

i don't buy into the internet version of things, and find it quite amusing.

i love looking for four leaf clovers.

i am semi panicking because the thought of never riding a bike again scares me, i have got to get my lungs in order.

most thing people find as vicious i find as quite sad.. very sad.

i am not a very social person but i am so looking forward to the reunion and so excited that my partner wants to take me and is making that happen.

To get my respect the walking the walk part is crucial, words are nothing without action.

[Just_G]

If you really knew me, you would know that I don't have an angry bone in my body. When most people would get angry, I retreat in to my shell. I will stand up for myself and speak my mind, but pretty much shut down after that. I don't like to beat a dead horse....I don't like to drudge up the past...that is useless.

[girl_dee]

if you knew me you would know that it's not always as it appears with me. i don't usually go around justifying my actions because of what people may be thinking about me. Just because i don't post it on the internet does not mean it didn't happen sort of thing. Then again some people carry their entire existence on this internet so i can see how they would get wrapped up in it, it's very easy to do apparently.

If you knew me you would know many people don't like me because i see through the saccharin version of what they are trying to sell. Deep inside, i know the truth, and they know it and i don't think people like that very much.

If you knew me you would know that i have a good sense of humor, i need it to survive!

[Soft*Silver]

IYRKM you would know:

I crave sugar like an alcoholic craves their drink of choice. It is my hardest addiction yet to crack

I am wildly crazy about projects. And I finish them if nothing gets in the way. And I dont mean small projects. big ones. Like my store. Going to college to learn how to ID trees. Working at a zoo and creating a primate environment

I read the paper back to front. But I rarely read the funnies anymore.

I play gnometown and people make fun of me for it. Shame on them!

I coloured my hair blue black. Dropped a few more years off my looks...

I am not afraid to fight with someone. I have huge balls and have taken on people with guns and knives (back when I worked as a Domestic Violence director and again, when i ran a homeless shelter) and wont take shit from anyone who hurt or is mean to someone in public. I might be a femme but I have a touch of insanity when it comes to protecting the wee,the innocent and the needy

[thedivahrrrself]

IYRKM, you'd know how much I adore people like you. I think it's my naivete. For the most part, I take most people at their word, because I'm a pretty open book and I forget other people aren't. I love the no bullshit people. Teach me your ways....

[Scuba]

If you really knew me...you would know that friendship is the only ticket in...
If you really knew me...you would know that, for me, first impressions are formed within the seconds and everything beyond that is just trying too hard.
If you really knew me...you would know that being yourself is more important than being what you think I want you to be...

[LoyalWolfsBlade]

IFYRKM you would know I do have a life that is not tied to this laptop.

IFYRKM I like sites like this one and others mainly because I get to be exposed to people I might never had the chance too and because I am secretly a vampire I get to meet a lot of people not form the U.S. and other late night inhabitants.

IFYRKM you would know I am in my home state of IL for now. I love the mountains of NH, the beaches of southern Mass., the out of the way towns of RI, the tall cactus in the Phoenix dessert, and seeing Amish buggies parked in an IN Walmart parking lot. The warmth of the gulf on the western side of FL, and although the drive on the Sky Way into IL is beautiful at night I hate driving on the loop.

IFYRKM you would know how much I love the outdoors and all it has to offer, except the awful humidity here.

[Bard]

If you really Knew me>>>> you would know I am a grumpy bastard but I can be buttered up with coffee

I am fiercely protective of my family and friends

I often have my heart on my sleeve till I gave it to Desd for safe keeping

I am a animal lover our pups are rescues as is our sweet but crazy mare

I am painfully shy
I became a cop to make a diffrence

I found my fairytale in Desd and she is a saint for putting up with me
when I met Desd I was a hopeless romantic who no longer believed in love and it was only through HER love support and never ending faith in me that I became the guy I am today....

as the song says I aint no angel but I am better then I use to be


:moonstars:

[LoyalWolfsBlade]

If you really knew me you would know...

I am an open book if you want to know the truth about me just ask I will answer honestly whether I consider it one of my faults or one of my positive attributes

That I love deeply but have only been IN love three times

That none of those relationships lasted badly it was just the wrong place and time for both of us and they would agree

That I am a loyal friend that would give you the shirt off my back, defend you to everyone, and protect you from all pain if you would allow

That my words have no string to them...just because I say something it does NOT mean I am wanting or needing something in return.

[Mr Nice Guy]

If you really knew me then you'd know that I'm always honest. I'd rather hurt someone with the truth then hurt them with a lie.

[thedivahrrrself]

...you'd get my family. They're weirdos, but they're loveable weirdos. Loveable weirdos who really like to argue. So, bring your best debate face, and take nothing personally. If you're a raging liberal, you'll do just fine. If you're not, prepare to defend your postion well. They're liberals in some of the most conservative areas of the country. They're prepared for your Fox News arguments.


...you'd know that if you can make me calm when I'm stressed, you are more addictive than crack cocaine LOL


...you'd know that, for me, the worst emotion in the world is disappointment.


...you'd realize that if I call you because I need you, you're in -- you're in deep.


...you'd know that if you impress my best friend, that would be a first for anyone I've ever dated. She's a tough cookie.

[Ginger]

If you really knew me ...

You'd get my dry sense of humor, and you'd know I only tease people I like.

[Blade]

If you really knew me you'd know that when Mama aint happy aint nobody happy......So if you knew me you'd know I'm headed to Mom's. She says there is a big black critter behind her building and she isn't going back down there.:blink:

If you really knew me you'd know I am leaving with pistol in hand.:fastdraq:

[~ocean]

I think your a hoot Island :)

[Ginger]

I think your a hoot Island :)


Ah thanks Ocean! :tea:

[DamonK]

You'd know how tired of this I am..... And slowly getting a bit worried

[ferret]

If you really knew me, you'd know that I'm a big mushball.

If you really knew me, you'd know how hard it is for me to forgive, yet so incredibly easy to write someone off.

If you really knew me, the two things I struggle with often are lack of patience and having a bit of a temper.

If you really knew me, I'm always ready to bail on someone, but only because I'm afraid of getting hurt.

If you really knew me, you'd know how much I crave intimacy, and long for a healthy relationship. But because I get scared and have a tendency to sabotage things, I don't know how realistic of me to even hope for that.

[Ginger]

This is so introspective, I really liked reading it.

Oh, I think I could do with way less introspection. Just saying.

[SleepyButch]

If you really knew me you would know that I take care of those that I care about.

[Ginger]

If you really knew me, you'd know:



that I have a turkey baster in my office, and I recycle the water from the dish under my plants, back into their soil. This makes a sound like I am in gastrointestinal distress; but I swear, it is the turkey baster :|


that there are eight elevator banks in the lobby of my office building, and I like to stand with my eyes closed, seeing if I can guess which elevator is on its way to me—I love that quiet whooshing sound :hk6:


that twice this week, men have given me their seat on the subway, and this morning, a man stood holding open the elevator door, though I was way on the other side of the lobby, walking toward it (f)


that I sometimes fantasize it is a handsome butch performing these acts of kindness, which snap me out of the spaciness that helps me float unbothered through the rude experience of day-to-day public transportation :olive:


that I listen to movie soundtracks at work while I write, and my favorites are composed by John Barry, like the theme song from Last of the Mohicans—and I don't care how schmaltzy the soundtracks are, they chill me out and let me think :coffee:


that I am so excited about the Reunion, I go back to the threads on it over and over, trying to figure who is going, and what they are like, and how it will feel to be in that hotel, in that city, with that crowd.:blueheels:

[ferret]

If you really knew me, you'd know that Rear Window is probably my all-time, favorite movie.

If you really knew me, I enjoy Batman as the character, and not the comics themselves.

If you really knew me, you'd know that while I've been clean 4 years, I consider myself an addict, always in recovery.
