3 biggest mistakes in my life and what did I learn from it?
1. Not living with my father when I had the chance.. My mothers home ( the one I was raised in) was a violent one. When I had the chance to go live with my father, my mother laid down the ulimate quilt trip, "I guess you don't love me, do you." As an 11 yr old child I fell for it and stayed in her home until I turned 18. Lesson learned: don't fall for transparent guilt trips, some times it's ok to do the selfish thing.
2. Not going into the army during peace time. I have a cousin who made the Army his career. In 1995, he arranged for me to go into the Army Reserves. He had then (and now) the power to make sure I had every benefit available to me and even took leave to be with me when I signed papers. He wanted to make sure I wasn't going to get screwed over. I was 18 years old at the time, and having the time of my life, so I backed out of it. He never judged me for it, and we are still very close. lesson learned: -Recognize when someone is bending over backwards for you!
3. I bought a house in 2001 when the housing market was booming. At that time everyone I worked with was buying a house. At that time, I could afford it. When I got thyroid cancer in 2002 began feeling the repricussions of that, I could'nt work full time anymore and lost my house. Lesson learned: - Don't chase after material possessions. Only buy what you need.
Ok, there you have it, some very personal info about me. I have bared my soul to a lot of people i don't know in a matter of 3 paragraphs
A man can be the nicest person in the world, but if he doesn't take care of himself, I won't get near him...
Guys (and gals) need to have pride in themselves. As in: be clean, brush your teeth, brush your hair if it's long, wear clean clothes that fit, be shower fresh and clean under your finger nails.
To me, even if a guy is super model hot., but he's dirty and smelly, I won't give him the time o' day
I'll go to the middle age, below average looking guy who is clean and groomed first
One of my male co-workers had the big toe nails removed because he had so many problems with them, but that was his own decision.... his wife didn't make him
