I wish I could feel pretty. I can't imagine why anyone would want me. This sounds like an excellent excuse to pamper yourself. Do some things that make you feel pretty. If you keep any things "for best" (e.g. I have a perfume I keep 'for best'), use them now! Ok, in all seriousness, nobody should ever feel this way. There will always be people who find you pretty and will want you.

I read this on another site. They were talking about emotional attachment. I related to this line alot. Being a compassionate and caring individual is not the same thing as being a self-destructive emotional mess that clings on to people without really knowing them.good one. the self-destructive part is the worst part i think. when you get involved with self-destructive people, instead of helping them, you often sink with them. people aren't helped unless they want to be...and do the work necessary. you can't rescue them.

good insight sp. I also read something somewhere, I think in one of my books. But it said something like this: Shy people/ introverts tend to meet someone and make them the one because they want to get the dating process over with. It is an already taxing process so if we met the one well then it's over and we don't have to start over again. We already put all that effort into getting what we got, to start over and have to do it all over again would be daunting and seems impossible to us. It is draining. So we tend to wish that this person we met is the one. It makes it easier. And that makes just a lot of sense to me. I know there has been a lot of talk about this concept about "the one" on these boards and wanted to share that idea. When I find the actual wording I will post it on here. yes. i'm sure this does enter in at times. as i've been waxing philosophical today, i've been reflecting that humans have been given the dubious gift of abstract thought...only to turn it against ourselves. sometimes i think we'd be better off without it.

For the longest time I always wanted to take a kickboxing class. It was just one of those things I always wanted to do. And...I did it tonight! I feel awesome! Oh wow - good for you! That's excellent that you went and did it.

i feel exhausted and stressed at the moment. my boss told me i need to step it up. and i thought i was, but now what? i mean if i thought i was doing better this whole time and i was really trying, now what? do i keep trying? do i quit? i feel like im not getting it. like i must be missing something. and i look at job postings and i have no clue what else I could do or where to go? why would i get another office job just for the same thing to happen again? they all say the same thing: must have good verbal skills, must be able to work in a team environment, must be able to communicate.... i feel so stuck. i have been a temp for 2.5 years at the same place now. f i would just blow it off and not worry about it. bosses feel like they're not doing their job unless they're cracking the whip. just say 'yes sir' and salute, lol. ;D

If they've kept you for 2.5 years....you certainly must be doing something right! Did your boss give you any suggestions? btw...I really hate seeing the job ads with those type of requirements mentioned, as well.
