Helloo Jeffery! (would you rather I didn't do that? )
Yeah I know what you mean.. my friends seem to see me in a different way to the way I see myself. In SOME ways.. very differently. I'm not very good at taking on board 'nice' things they say tbh though. I just think 'yeah yeah'
I have yet to meet Mr McMaybe...but when we meet, if things are not the way they appear to be.. we are both old enough.. adult enough.. and have enough in common to STILL have a good time.
So we will do that, either which way, we've had fun in the meantime.. and that's the important thing.
Oh so do I... I don't BECOME a maniac.. No wayyy... if I made a fool of myself.. or I FELT as tho I had.. I would I just run and hide.. I would disappear.
When I DO fall in love with someone, it's not often.. (in fact it's quite rare for me) It takes me a lonnngg time to actually fall in love.
I'm not the kind of person to let those feelings take me over very often. But when I DO tend to fall .. I fall hook line and sinker. (really)
They do become my *everything*.. as I've said somewhere else on here.. I become totally blinded by them.. blinked.. tunnel vision. (yeah I know..it scares ME too! haha)
Where I can't even SEE anyone else but them.
And yeah I would make just about ANY sacrifice for them.. (my children being the only *BUT*) as long as it wasn't something totally illegal or just ridiculous.
But sometimes I think I fall harder than I SHOULD.. Sometimes I think I'm a bit TOO intense for some people.. (They weren't kidding when they said about a Taurean being *Powerhouse of Passion*) haha.. and yes then I Do regret it because I look like a maniac if it's not reciprocated quite so intensely
and yep.. sometimes I regret making stupid sacrifices then realising part way in, I've let my heart lead me.. and made a MASSIVE mistake. I'm waaayy too impulsive for my own good!
But I live and learn. I try nowadays to listen more with my HEAD and my gut instinct..(which are almost ALWAYS right) I no longer ignore them. Actually I was telling someone the other day.. how nowadays I treat my feelings in the same way I do in my job.. where I give my clients (seemingly) my 'all'.. but reeeeally I keep the IMPORTANT stuff back.
Saves me getting hurt.. (when they die) and making mistakes thinking with my heart instead.
I'm a big I'm a softy arsed romantic chomping at the bit really.
No I agree with you too Indy.. there are lots of people here I would love to meet. (One in particular )
But lots of people I would like to spend some RL time with.. people I think I would have some good conversations and great laughs with. I may meet up with some of them in the future on my travels.

RE: How close do you think you would come to seeing yourself as others see you?
hellooo RiyaI agree it's interesting to know how others *See* you. (whether you think they are true or not)
