If You *REALLY* knew Me...

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.

you would know I'm a keeper and I'm rare.
you would know I am good at assessing and making sense out of people's feelings.
you would know I'm open, loving, and affectionate.
you would know I fall in love a little too fast and I am working on slowing it down.
you would know that I could make a real "type A" personality batshit insane
you would know I had 2 relationships that could've worked out if they happened at a different stage in our lives. The other parties agree, but you can never go back. Timing is everything.
you would know my positives outweigh my negatives.
you would never want to let me go.

You have been "accused" of being a lesbian?

WTF?

People call me a lesbian. I would not call it an accusation.

I call it my identity.

No I have been accused of hatting all men and all women that ID as lesbians since I was 15 because I have a masculine identity. Which was your original question. Sorry for not making it clearer.

If you really knew me ...

you would know that i'm not so tough and my feelings are actually pretty easily hurt. i try not to let things bother me, but they do hurt.

When my feelings get hurt i get angry with myself for letting that happen.

i don't buy into the internet version of things, and find it quite amusing.

i love looking for four leaf clovers.

i am semi panicking because the thought of never riding a bike again scares me, i have got to get my lungs in order.

most thing people find as vicious i find as quite sad.. very sad.

i am not a very social person but i am so looking forward to the reunion and so excited that my partner wants to take me and is making that happen.

To get my respect the walking the walk part is crucial, words are nothing without action.
