If You *REALLY* knew Me...
This idea came from a show on MTV that encourages High school students from different cliques to challenge their views of each other. Most all of us are out of high school for years and years now but this thread is here to allow a space for safely sharing ones vulnerabilities and to encourage mutual respect and a deeper understanding of the lives of other community members.
Lets respect the extent that people will feel comfortable divulging as much or a little information as they choose to share. This is NOT a space for personal issues with any other member/s on this site. Thanks! If you really knew me... You would know I have had a very stressful 2 years. I moved from N.J. to PA to take care of my 84 year old father who is going blind. I also took on the responsibility of 8 feral cats out back. If you really knew me you would now I am somewhat shy and this sometimes hinders me in meeting new people. If you really knew me...You would know I have been contented being single the last few years but would like to make some new friendships and start dating again. If you really knew me you would know they found a lesion in my brain last month on the frontal lobe and are doing another test in 6 months to monitor me for MS. If you really knew me you would know I have a slipper fetish. I own many, many slippers!!! I think you get the idea...

great idea for sharing but also affirmations. I've been using a lot of self hypnosis and meditation lately.
If you really knew me you'd know that 10 years ago something happened that devastated me, changed my view of myself and world. Every year after seemed to spiral out of control and although I still achieved many goals there was a constant void , pain and fear within me. If you knew me before that you would have seen a vivacious woman that had an unreal zest for living. Strong, capable, beautiful and seductive. If you knew me you'd see how very hard I've worked to escape this doubt and heal. Today I am not the same woman I was even 2 months ago. If you knew me you'd see that finally, after so many years I have thrown off the weight of fear and liberated myself pain. If you knew me you'd see the sparkle starting to return and you'd feel the passion for life starting to brew. you'd know that its all me, no one that walks on this planet can make me happier then I can myself. If you knew me you'd know that animals are a very important part of my healing and should the truth be known I like then better than humans.

If you really knew me: You would know that I am a carrying person and I chat with many people and that doesn't mean I'm " doing" anyone. I think it's healthy to have many friends but if someone is sulking over how many one person has friends then get out and make more friends yourself don't be jelious of someone else.
Because if you really know me: This time last year I wasn't a talkitive chatter.

If you really knew me, you would know that I strive to make everyone I meet feel accepted, understood, and respected.
If you really knew me, you would know I do this to receive the same in return. If you really knew me, you would have seen the growth I have done and the healthier and more confident person I have become, cherishing the scars of the past, to keep me from returning to that lower self. If you really knew me, you know that my trust, once given runs thick with love and protection. If you really knew me, I would really know you!

If you really knew me, you'd know my outward appearance doesn't match how I've felt inside for almost a year now
If you really knew me, you'd know that it's hard for me to communicate in crowded rooms, on the phone and sometimes one on with a person if you don't speak loud enough or clear enough or don't annunciate your words If you really knew me, you'd know I'm a kind, caring person that can be a jerk at times and not realize it If you really knew me, you'd know I was an animal lover and would rescue them all if I had the time, money and room

If you really knew me
If you really knew me you'd know, I'm all about improvement. Constantly, in every area of my life for as long as I live.
I would never settle for mediocrity. I have no time for fiction. I mean what I say, or I wouldn't say it. I'm hard headed but soft hearted. I'm generous and have a good work ethic. I have no tolerance for laziness or stupidy. I'm very kind and forgiving, but if you mistake that for weakness you will have a rude awakening. I am a Marine. I was a Drill Instructor. I love the Steelers and Phillies. I am an identical twin. Very few things scare me. I only cry when I could possible lose someone I love. Integrity must be a priority in your life if want to call me a friend. I love sports . I love to travel. Especially anywhere in the Southern Pacific. I love the ocean and must spend some time in it at least once a year. I hate winter. I hate snow. I hate cold. I rarely use the word hate. It takes a lot to get me angry. People almost never make me angry, situations do. It's almost impossible to offend me, I'm very thick skinned. I would never cheat. I've never done drugs in my life, not even pot. I'm not a big drinker but I love an ice cold beer after I cut the grass. I am still in love with her.

I am not available from 12 pm to 12 am every Saturday during NCAA football season I'm a lover not a fighter, I will not argue with anyone over anything I do not yell, nope not at an animal, a child or my partner, I just don't do it I don't bite much but when me or mine is bitten I bite back I love all of the critters God sends to me and they are welcome in my home always. I am loyal to my family, friends, my Southern heritage and my American heritage I require very little sleep I'm always in motion even when I sleep I'm pretty sensitive, you can hurt my feelings fairly easily I try to be fair but sometimes my view is clouded, work with me.

...I am an animal lover and would take in every stray and homeless animal I could if I had the means. ...I used to drag race when I was younger, but later on I didn't drive for a long time because even sitting in the passenger seat would give me panic attacks, and it still happens on occasion. ...I got the back of my head split open from being thrown from a bucking horse when I was 17. ...I started as a First Responder for the volunteer fire department when I was 16 because I like to help folks. ...I fall asleep best when there's heavy metal blasting through my mp3 player headphones. ...I would take a Dodge Ram pickup over a luxury car any day. ...I have a "degree" in parapsychology. .gif "Say What?") ...I thrive on the unique and unusual. |

If you really knew me you'd know how Ive made all my dreams come true except the one I want the most. To be someone's partner. To have found my soulmate.
If you really knew me you'd know I love animals but am very partial to dogs. If you really knew me you'd know Im very allergic to cats. If you really knew me you'd know I love Lifetime Movies If you really knew me you'd know I cry at romantic movies If you really knew me you'd know I dont have any patience If you really knew me you'd know all my friends are coupled If you really knew me you'd know Im a great person to know If you really knew me you'd know how it scares me to be vulnerable to anyone. If you really knew me you'd know that they just found my 20 year old neighbor dead from apparent suicide. He hung himself. He has been dead for at least 3 days before he was found. If you really knew me you'd know this has made me cry these last few days. Feeling so sad for this young man. And it really hitting home to me. Knowing that is my greatest fear to die in my apt and no one finding me for days. If you really knew me you'd know that I am ten feet tall and bullet proof as I stated before but Im so much more than that. Im very very tenderhearted. |

If you really knew me you would know ive had a really tough childhood that no kid should ever go thru.
If you really knew me you would see im a very caring and honest person that tends to try to bare the world on her shoulders. If you really knew me you would see that ive over came so much in my short life and i try everyday to better myself. If you really knew me you would see i try to hide behind my work. If you really knew me you would see that im afraid of rejection and the unknown.

You'd know...
I'm easily moved to tears by the goodness of people. I'm also easily dismayed by how terrible they can be. I feel best when I'm curled up with my sweetheart, surrounded by our animals, knowing that my daughters are safe and happy. I really am easy-going and flexible. I easily handle changes, and love spontaneity. I am always torn between personal/professional development and living a life of leisure. Fortunately, I don't have a choice right now.
