What does having a masculine ID have to do with not hating "all men or women that ID as lesbians"??

You would perhaps understand why silly little things are so important to me.

If you really knew me, you'd know why I have no pity for almost anyone, even though I think I'm pretty compassionate. Pity is just not in my vocabulary.

IYRKM, you'd know when you lose my attention, but you wouldn't take it personally.

IYRKM, you'd know I'm long-winded and there's much more to come...

that if I'm really upset I tend to isolate myself

If you really knew me you'd know the impact my father's violence had on all of us.

If you really knew me you'd know about the only two songs I know all the lyrics to are Bohemian Rhapsody and Mahnamana

If you really knew me you'd be coming over to Malaysia for a holiday because I love playing tour guide

If you really knew me, you'd know that for me to say what I *really* feel is a big deal because it's not always easy for me

If you really knew me, you'd know that if I try to make amends or right a hurt my actions may have caused you, it's because I know personally that life is short

If you really knew me then you'd know that I have strong shoulders to lean on and it's ok to lean.

IYRKM, you'd know I work in spurts instead of spreading things out. This means I get involved in a project for entire days sometimes instead of doing little bits at once. My "flow" is very important for finishing things. I find I don't finish a lot of things I start if I try to piece them out.

IYRKM, you'd know I'm a harder worker than you might imagine from my current level of productivity.

IYRKM, you'd know that, although I am pretty self-motivated, it's nice to have someone who pushes me to be better. I am better when someone expects the best from me, particularly if that person is someone I admire.

IYRKM, you'd know I'm not as tough as I present myself to be and that my feelings get hurt quite easily, though if you don't know me well, you may never realize when they do.

-You'd know how much I struggle with being vulnerable

-You'd know how much I'm working on making my life happen

-You'd know that I really just want to go on a Buddhist meditative silent retreat or to the mountains for a few days.

-You'd know that I've made some scary changes.

If you really knew me you would know that I have been accused of those two things on a consistent basis since I was 15 in my rel life experience.

If you really knew me you would know I am capable of being single. That I do not need someone to complete me I want someone instead to compliment what I have to offer in a relationship.

If you really knew me you would know I love to travel although I have not been outside of the U.S. yet.

If you really knew me you would know I have a thirst for knowledge and I am constantly trying to learn something new.
