taking criticism has never been my strong point maybe because i can hardly discern the difference between criticism and judgmentmaybe because i wish people were more selective in their criticisms

Ok, see, I know you in real life and this journal is only one small facet of your multi-jeweled fucking personality. I saw some things that pissed me off...I wonder how many of those people have really had a chance to see other parts of you...but I don't need to address that because opinions are lucklily not fact, and I know that you are more about life and love and the universe and energy and all sorts of other cool ass things...not just "boys". Ok, rambling. Point: You're awesome in a way that you have to really know you to "get". I just feel sad for those who don't. Because, please! girl, I know how you vent/express/exclaim. It's over the top & I love it!!
hahaha. yeah, i think in the FO entry i didn't make it quite clear in the comments section. but you said...i am more about other "things" than boys but who the hell even understands those "things" other than the few people i keep close to me, you know? that's why you get it.
I'm with Kate...I will be (mostly) silent, as I don't want to start a flamewar in your journal...but I too, was somewhat taken aback by some things I saw.
You are who you are, Valeri. And who you are is pretty damn cool...and complex. To say someone is only about 1 or 2 things is calling them shallow, and I'd never say that of you.
I don't see you enough. It was really good seeing you in your class the other day.
i was in Albuquerque a couple of weeks ago for the day.. i wanted to get ahold of you... i thought we were spending the night there..but no.. plus i didnt have any of yer info... or access to a computer..
what a bummer. i would have loved to see you! where are you now? i may be taking a journey to hollywood if i grow some balls! like in the next few weeks.
ohhh... man i knew the whole time i was trying to remember if i had ever known yer last name.. etc.. i live in northern california now.. come on up if ya like!
Val....I'm just gonna be on my way. I didn't mean that you were "less than" (and I think you know that). Shit, my daughter is 20 and she's not obsessed with boys, she's obsessed with sex....Anyhow, I am probably older than your mom and so maybe I'm not respectful enough for you when I talk to you...but I've always just been a really open person...without meaning any harm at all. So I'm going to unfriend you and I hope you will unfriend me... I was just trying to get to know some people out there and you seemed pretty cool to have a cafe press store with your kid's art and all... I hope things start going better for you....
that's cool. i considered removing you from my friend's list this morning, but i figure differences in thoughts and opinions is no reason to unfriend someone, and find that to be rather coward like. this is fine, though, as i was unsure how much more of your "different" opinions i could handle, especially since they were about me. i would think that if you were trying to get to know someone you would avoid criticizing them and telling them how you think they are. by admitting that you were trying to get to know me, says that you didn't know me at all, and making quick assumptions is never a good way to start off. and i don't know what being older than my mom has to do with respect. we should all try to respect each other, all of the time. even though i am #1 bitch...i think i consciously make an effort to respect others, and avoid labeling them, regardless of their judgment or criticism towards me.
i write for me and get shit for it. i mean if i say "interesting" and even in regards to the FO post i mean interesting to ME. i could care less if i interest other people, you know?
guess what? they're opening a ragin' shrimp in rio rancho.
