If You *REALLY* knew Me...

[ferret]

If you really knew me, you'd know that I'm pretty easy to get along with, and generally up for anything.

If you really knew me, you'd love me for my for my faults in spite of them.

If you really knew me you'd know that I'm a toucher. I love to touch and be touched. That doesn't mean I'm clingy.

If you really knew me, you'd know that even though I'm an extrovert, I like my alone time.

If you really knew me, you'd know that it's best to leave me alone and do what I need to do if I'm mad or upset.

If you really knew me, you'd know my middle name.

If you really knew me, you'd know what my favorite color is.

If you really knew me, you'd know that I'm ticklish.

If you really knew me, you'd know that the sillier or worse the joke is, the harder I'll laugh.

You would know that I get the biggest thrill doing things for my girl and knowing that she truly enjoys and appreciates it... like making a pot of coffee for her on the days I had to go into work early so that when she woke she had freshly brewed coffee waiting for her.

You'd know what things were difficult for me to talk about or what things I'd like to avoid talking about altogether.
You'd know that it's okay to ask me anything, but I might not want to answer.
You'd know that I have a tendency to open my mouth before thinking about it.
You'd know that I'm always afraid that I'm going to be "too" honest, if there even is such a thing, and that I'm going to end up pushing people away.
You'd know that I'd rather just stop with this introspective bullshit, but maybe it's where I need to be right now.
