If You *REALLY* knew Me...

ferret · 08-02-2012, 04:47 PM

If you really knew me, you'd know that Rear Window is probably my all-time, favorite movie.

If you really knew me, I enjoy Batman as the character, and not the comics themselves.

If you really knew me, you'd know that I was worth the time and effort.

If you really knew me, you'd know I'd do it all over again... with very few changes.
If you really knew me, you'd know I'm a geek.
If you really knew me, you'd realize that if I confide in you, either something is REALLY wrong, or I REALLY trust you. I just don't talk to people. It's backfired on me too many times.
If you really knew me, you'd know that the way to my heart is through my dogs. Love them, and I may just love you.

If you really knew me, you'd know I'm just a normal guy.
If you really knew me, you'd know I love computer games.
If you really knew me, you'd know that I have very abnormal interests. It doesn't make me creepy, or morbid. It's simply a part of history and I get curious.

If you really knew me, you'd know why I quit.
If you really knew me, you'd know that while I've been clean 4 years, I consider myself an addict, always in recovery.

If you really knew me...you'd know I am resourceful enough that things usually work out alright

gaea · 08-04-2012, 09:39 AM

if you really knew me you would know I'm not the type that feels the need to compete, my self value tends to get in the way. Besides that I just see no need to waste my time.

Blade · 08-04-2012, 12:32 PM

If you really knew me, you'd know that I hate being dependent on someone else to come fix something for me. Due to a knee injury, slowly healing I can not crawl under my house. This has me wanting to poke my eyeballs out!

Tony · 08-04-2012, 01:35 PM

You'd know that:
My bark is usually worse than my bite.
Unless you mess with my family or loved ones. Then I turn into a rapid junk yard dog.
I'm a lot more sensitive than people suspect.
I'm a hopeless romantic & a realist. Bad combo.
Even tho I'm a badass, my life has no real focus without a woman to center it on.
You'd also know that this was way more revelation than I'm usually willing to divulge to strangers.

thedivahrrrself · 08-02-2012, 09:01 PM

...you'd know....

that I need a chihuahua sitter for Sunday night.

that I love to learn new things.
that I'm sometimes a crappy listener, but I hear you.
that I don't always know myself very well. In fact, you may know me better than I do.

ferret · 08-03-2012, 04:40 PM

If you really knew me, you'd know that it's a lot easier for me to say screw it than stick it out - at least in the short term.

If you really knew me, you'd know that no one could figuratively beat me up better than I beat on myself.

If you really knew me, you'd know why I keep people at a distance.

If you really knew me, you'd know that I'm pretty much the same in person as I am in chat.

If you really knew me, I hold myself to a really high standard, and unfortunately, hold those I care about to the same, high standard.

If you really knew me, you'd know that I have some regrets. I think everyone does, and I know there's no point in having them, but there they are, just the same.

If you really knew me, you'd know that I'm trying my damndest to think before speaking, rather than just opening my mouth and letting god knows what pop out of it.

tazz · 08-03-2012, 04:57 PM

ruffryder · 08-05-2012, 07:17 PM

If You Really Knew Me: You would miss me when I'm not there

Soft*Silver · 08-10-2012, 08:48 AM

...I cant tolerate the smell of vanilla and actually do have a gag reaction to it

....how terrified I am of getting sickly again. And if I ever have to go back into the hospital, they better put me on watch.

.....my insomnia is over, for now. I live with recurrent bouts of it.

.......I plan to be wintering in california within the next 5 years

...........how lost I am with any kind of technology. My latest is a smart phone. I have had it for a month and cant even figure out how to get it to turn on easily.

KayCee · 08-10-2012, 08:58 AM

IYRKM: you would know I'll never be the same person I was before and you would know why.

Tony · 08-10-2012, 09:07 AM

You'd know my confidence is real. I've earned it. I own it.

I seldom back down from anyone, especially if defending someone else. You'd also know that I am always working in my tact & diplomacy.

I am a work in progress & I am man enough to admit that.

My heart does bleed. I do feel pain. But you will only see that if you really know me.
