People with Type A personalities are often high-achieving 'workaholics' who multi-task, push themselves with deadlines, ( Read more... )

I'm known in the family and circle of friends as being the social butterfly. I love meeting new people and I love striking conversations with strangers pretty much wherever I am. This side of me I definitely get from my dad as my mom is very much anti-social. What I get from my mom though is the need for alone time and the preference for living ( Read more... )

I got this from 2 comments on a friend's facebook status update. Put together, it's some sound advice. ;)

"Take your time, find the right one. And enjoy your time with the wrong ones, Ms Right Now can at least lead to entertaining stories."

That last part - oh so true.

Pardon the emo, it's almost "that time" again ( Read more... )

"Don't let someone be a priority in your life when you are just an option in theirs."

Damn, that's good. I have some pretty smart friends.

I've been thinking about doing this for a while, and last Sunday...I finally did it. I reached out to Bikee, my ex. What I really wanted to do was invite him out for a cup of coffee or something, but our mutual friend advised against it ( Read more... )

Not to say that part of it isn't the girl's fault. Just realize that it isn't all her fault either.

I haven't been following this blog in a while, but I really liked his latest post, particularly this line:

"A real man isn’t driving his woman crazy, so much as he’s calming her down."

Just came to a realization the other day. It's not the thought of falling in love that scares me; it's the commitment that usually follows soon after. If I can be in love with a guy who is also in love with me minus the commitment, then I'll be fine. The moment the "c" word is uttered? That's when I freak out and the big, bad issues/insecurities ( Read more... )
