Who are you?

[smurf2]

I'm pretty shy with people i don't know. Not outgoing unless we're already friends. Not very social. Would much rather do my own thing or stay home. I'm goofy and funny. I am friends with people i've known my whole life. Im very close with my family but i dont talk to them everyday. Stupid people frustrate me. I have no tolerance for incompetence. People who know me always like me. Im pretty agreeable. I keep my opinions to myself. I dont prefer to argue or debate. I am all about 'to each his own'.

I am a peacemaker. I am diplomatic. It has been an asset to me, not something that has been a detriment, and its something that I am not ashamed. That is who I am. I try to do the right thing always, but I don't always do it. Its not something I really "strive" to do, but it is my desire. Unfortunately I'm not perfect and make mistakes. I usually beat myself up over those mistakes, I have a hard time forgiving myself.

I'm not shy but I'm not outgoing, either. I guess I would say that I'm friendly. I'm not as nice unfortunately IRL as I am on here but I still consider myself a nice person. I have many friends but few real ones. I'm fiercely loyal to the real ones. The others, whatever. I don't go around talking about psychobabble nonsense IRL; I'm pretty normal. I absolutely can NOT tolerate conflict, I internalize it and it makes me physically sick. I consider myself warm and caring, but I guess you'd have to ask others that have to be around me if I actually am. I'm best friends with my Dad; he is my best friend in the entire world and I would do anything for him. I'm not competitive and I don't have to win.

Almost the same for me, what you see is what you get, but there times I'm a lot more vulnerable than I show.

Those of us who are paying attention can see the vulnerable side.

Me, I think I'm pretty much myself online; definitely been open about my life.

Like so many of my generation I grew up being ignored by my parents but thrived on the independence. I certainly love attention which probably stems from that.

People come to me for advice all the time, I think because of my confidence, the life experiences I've had, and the fact that I genuinely bear no ill will toward anyone.

I think a lot of people feel lost and out of control. I rarely feel that.

As I age I cry much more easily (at sad movies or songs and such) but it's almost like it's not painful to cry. I'm grateful to feel such deep emotions because I have so much responsibility at this point that I'm usually on autopilot and feeling nothing.

When I'm alone in a crisis, I fall apart; not good at all on my own. But when there's someone who needs me, I focus entirely on their well being and become very strong in a crisis.

I could see myself in a serious relationship with either cindylou or blueta.

Wow nydj I take that as a huge compliment. I'm really flattered.

I never talk about racial issues IRL because it's all good to me but there's so many a-holes here I feel like I have to stand up for my peoples, so I'm the EF Rev. Al Sharpton.

I have a long-time GF who I met on Elite and only 2 people here know who she is...this thread won't change that.

Whoa bro that was something I didn't know about you and I've known you for a while. Awesome!

Having gone through some challenges in the last few months, I've learned I'm stronger then I think I am but don't feel as strong as others perceive me to be. I don't show emotion very well and usually hide behind humor.

I have many friends but few real friends and those I've had for life and am loyal to a fault. I'm also a bit of an adrenalin junkie and as I look back over my life, my career choices, friends etc often reflect that desire for the "rush".

And...I love surfing too and live in the absolute WRONG part of the world now to surf but have a Quicksilver board in my home office that I stand on sometimes just to pretend!

I'm basically what you know me as here with my posts. Sort of a nerd, loner, and not ever really with the popular "in-crowd" at all. I trust most everyone until they give me a reason not to. Hate isn't in my vocabulary, and all people are potential friends, and I don't tolerate bullying or bigotry.

I'm really not an Etough guy at all like a lot of people here think lol. All that is just for shits&giggles. In fact I'm quite the opposite IRL. I'm actually very caring, calm, confident, but yet very humble, with a very composed personality. Take the time to talk to me on a personal level, and you'll see that. I do need to work on being more emphatic though to people close to me.

We already knew all that, einstein

IRL im a fucking douchebag, or so my GF tells me
