I saw this on an lj community I'm part of, so I thought I'd post here it in an effort to pass it on because I think this is a great idea

And yes, I know this. I don't like to admit it to myself, but I know. But I will say one thing - it's not just about a guy being a certain way or looking a certain way. I mean, hell, I've liked guys who were completely different from what I thought I was looking for. What it is mostly about for me is the connection, and if you know me well, you've heard me talk about it before. You may think it's some sort of cop-out or excuse, but it's not. A lack of chemistry won't prevent me from getting to know someone better, but I certainly won't jump into a relationship. I don't know, I'm just waiting for something that is going to last. I'll know when I find it, and it's not all about finding the perfect goth guy. I'm not THAT shallow.
But to an extent, you're right. Then again, we're all shallow to a degree.
I honestly think you had it right the first time! If there's no chemistry between 2 people it's just not going to work! Regardless of looks or ways, if there's no chemistry, no attraction; if they bore the piss out of you...it's a no-go

My dearest ambition is that one day I will be able to read the poem "A Woman's Shortcomings" by Elizabeth Barrett Browning and know that I've found love.

I need a man...desparately!:) I think i'm going slowly insane. I talk to myself too much. I have no idea what im doing with my life. I frustrate myself more than anyother person could. I am too spineless to be productive.......
yet... I'm fairly happy most of the time. Is ignorance truly bliss?
Ps. Although I do really like you and enjoy reading you journal, I still haven't quite figured you out yet. A penchant for drama and toil perhaps? Though genuine it dominates you. I think this can be both good and bad...
Oooo. I have had this in my journal before. It isnt so much as a secret as no one seems to understand. I wish people would listen to each other. Thats what a lot of problems stem from. Then again, I think I may listen too much to other people and not myself. Its hard to say either way. I tend to be overwhelmingly selfless, but I like that as a fault. I think you have more depth than most people, though I dont know you too well. The end!
As much as I can cope with the seemingly endless bombardment of problems that come my way, and as much as I believe that everything happens for a reason, I often wish that something would either click back into place or kill me. The light at the end is flickering and barely within sight. My true purpose will come to surface one day and the suffering won't seem in vain; up until now it has pieced together perfectly, allowing me to accept and smile through the negativity. Enough is enough though. I need alleviation.
This aside, due to my awareness and experience, I have acute perspective. When others feed me with their sympathy I only want to tell them that it could be worse as is the case for the problematic areas of their lives. I hope that you have this ability too.
I do not care if you know who I am or not; the things that I want to be kept truly anonymous I leave inside my mind.
