Blah

Everyone has pet peeves. One of my biggest ones is feeling embarrassed for other people when they should be feeling embarrassed for themselves. Everyone knows those situations... it's when people do or say something that is completely and totally tactless. You think in your head, "Alright buddy.. Stop talking while you're still ahead.." But they continue to talk or do whatever it is that is embarrassing, oblvious to the looks everyone around is giving them. I usually get up and leave the situation immediately. I CAN'T STAND IT!

Recently I've realized another huge pet peeve of mine. I hate it when people take me for granted. I hate it when people just assume I will be there to pick them up when they're down or use me for pleasure when they aren't getting it anywhere else. Don't you hate that? It's like...if I'm good enough during the bad times then I damn well better be good enough during the good ones too. People tell me all the time not to let others walk all over me and I just blow them off. I feel like I'm a pretty strong person.. I stand up for myself, on most occasions. There are only a small, small, SMALL few out there that I don't stand up to for whatever reason. I think it's time to stop that.. I'm tired of laying down and taking shit from people. I'm tired of getting used and taken advantage of. It's really starting to piss me off, instead of hurting me. I used to let it get to me.. I used to get hurt, then sad, then confused. I didn't understand why I seemed to be an easy target. What did I do to deserve such treatment? It doesn't matter now. I'm over it.

(hugs)...linny me darlin, I know how you feel...i sometimes find myself feeling the same way, wondering the same things...and i believe it was you who told me to let it go...and to stop being there for those who only seemed to need me in the bad times...it took time, but i am finally there...and it gives you a sense of freedom a small freedom but freedom just the same....(more hugs) -- tigg, 13:08:04 07/13/03 Sun
- Thanks Karen... I know that I shouldn't care so much what people think and what they do, but that's one of my faults... I need to work on that.... (NT) -- Lindsey, 00:55:31 07/15/03 Tue
