I am good about my self. I don't hate anything. the onlything I don't like about my self is that I get too stressed out about things

Post 3 by asdfghjkl (Account disabled) on Tuesday, 23-Aug-2005 19:33:59

1. I trust too easily.


2. I'm blind, but, eh, I'm starting to accept that...


3. I am negative, even when I don't want to be.


4. Priscy, I stress too much too.


5. I have an anger problem, I think (this sort of ties into my negativity), and I don't get angry easily, but when I do, I tend to burst...
6. I always keep something inside, and if people hurt me bad enough, I don't trust hardly anybody. Then, I am too trusting again after I "think" I've healed, and it goes even further down hill from there...

Yay I like this topic. <hugs> mel mel, I'm like you with some of these:

1. I trust too much
2. I don't handle disappointment very well
3. I obsess over things
4. my weight
5. I'm entirely too shy (in person)
6. I drink too much (working on it, honestly think it's taken care of now, but even so)
7. I have this way of coming across as a bitch and conceited to people--and I can't figure out why or how to fix it!

I really wish people wouldn't do this. I'm guessing that all of you are also looking for love, and hoping to find it. How can you if you don't even like yourselves? You must learn to accept and love who you are. accept your faults and work at them. We can all work to be better people, but accept that everything we experience contributes to who and what we are. We can't all be beautiful and the most intellegent, so lets just be greatful we are good people in other ways.

I'm in full agreement with Kevin's post; I couldn't have possibly said it any better myself.

i quite like the idea of kev being an agony aunt. all those in favor of kev starting up his own weekly column where he addresses self esteem issues in a caring and thoughtful manor add hear

Post 9 by Flidais (WISEST IS SHE WHO KNOWS THAT SHE DOES NOT KNOW) on Wednesday, 24-Aug-2005 0:33:10

ROFL Dan. I agree kev, but this was a "hate yourself" topic and I don't see anything wrong in acknowledging your faults. If you dwell on them maybe, but not just talking about them. I'm proud of the fact that I hate being a bitch lolol

Post 10 by Manwe (The Dark Lord) on Wednesday, 24-Aug-2005 4:05:47

lol. Well yuo are who you are, for 1 thing there's nothing wrong with being small, I don't think so anyway. Just be natural and be yourself. People can and will accept you for who you are. Ok yeah we all got things we can improve on but hey who cares really? take the good with the bad and be done with it.

Post 11 by PorkInCider (Wind assisted.) on Wednesday, 24-Aug-2005 5:29:30

Nat, I think there's a distinct difference between acknowledging your faults, and expressing hate for aspects of who and what you are. By all means discuss the faults, find some strength in numbers, and maybe help each other find a way to improve those faults, but don't hate them. You never know, what are faults now, may just help you become a better person in other ways later on. Everything about us and around us, affects who and what we are, so don't hate any of it. Embrace it, and let it make you stronger.

hehehehehe Add my votes for Kev!!! To be honest, there isn't anything I really hate about myself!!! I mean, I'm a sexy chick, what more can I ask for??? hehehehehe No. But seriously though, I am working on my anger management problem. heheheh I get really angry about things and sometimes, I say things that I regret later!!! I'm a big bitch too, but I like that part of me!!! So all the bitches with attitudes, come represent the B. W. A.!!!
*sexy*

You might well hate aspects of your body or personality, but ask yourselves what you're aiming at and if it's realistically possible. Also, here I go into the land of the hypothetical. Imagine a world where everyone is beautiful, outgoing, intelligent, well-mannered, etc. Might be pleasant for a few minutes but it would be mighty dull and bland and boring after that. Yes, we can all improve ourselves, but I also think that it's better and easier and much less stressful to accept yourself the way you are, and don't worry about how you compare to other people or celebs. Comparing yourself to others is usually a recipe for misery and too many people fall into that trap. Your small breasts or large size contribute to the variety of people out there. Work on those tempers and self-esteem issues best you can, because nobody deserves to hate themselves just for existing. This is about all I can say. The how and where of it all is up to you guys. I can't tell you.

What do I hate about myself? nothing! why? because I won't improove myself by hating myself.

Post 15 by Goblin (I have proven to myself and the world that I need mental help) on Wednesday, 24-Aug-2005 9:49:10

I don't hate anything about myself but there are aspects of my personality I'd gladly change..hmm self doubt, depression,I'm my own worst critic,and never really satisfied with anything I do.

Post 16 by Texas Shawn (The cute, cuddley, little furr ball) on Wednesday, 24-Aug-2005 10:00:07

Well, after mulling over what Kevin said I agree. I thought about starting another topic called what faults do you dislike about yourself. hmmm, maybe I will! But hate is a pretty strong word. I don't hate things about myself I wish I could do them better or except them as who I am. Trust me I am a work in progress, there are things about my personality that have changed so so much in the last 2 years. There still are things I'd like to improve on but I like who I am now and that is one of the problems I used to have! Anger, Fear, self-centerednness, depression are all facts of life and normal. All of us have those feelings it's how you react to them is what matters.

Post 17 by Manwe (The Dark Lord) on Wednesday, 24-Aug-2005 12:41:22

Everybody is a work in progress, there's no such thing as perfection. Because perfection like so many other things is in the eye of the beholder. Still, just do what ever you can and let that be that. People will either like you or they won't. You can't please everybody, and sooner or later you'll learn not to bother. Because the moment you purposefully change something to please someone else then you aren't yourself.

Post 18 by bermuda-triangulese (Help me, I'm stuck to my chair!) on Wednesday, 24-Aug-2005 13:45:51

lol let's ditch the positive for a minute. Me? 1. My temper, I will get angry very fast and throw things across rooms. 2. My weight holey shit do I need to change this one
3. my lack of socialibility and my general belief that people, as a hole, suck.
4. my lack of trust and doubting every single word that every person says to me looking for an alterior motive
5. my laziness, if I say I'm gunna do something, just, do it, god damnet!
6. some strange kinks of mine I can't get rid of

Post 19 by PorkInCider (Wind assisted.) on Wednesday, 24-Aug-2005 14:09:28

Shawn, I'd like to just say here, having known you for a good part of that 2 years, you've made a major difference to your life, keep it going dude.

Post 20 by Pink Flamingo (Generic Zoner) on Wednesday, 24-Aug-2005 23:30:55

The only thing I need to work on is my fear of dissapointing people. I learned a few weeks that I can't please everyone and by trying I hurt those that I love. but other than that I'm very pleased with myself!

Post 21 by Flidais (WISEST IS SHE WHO KNOWS THAT SHE DOES NOT KNOW) on Wednesday, 24-Aug-2005 23:43:04

&LT;weeps at the beauty of Kev's words> yeah geesh, I guess the politically correct way to say this is....."my above post was directed at the areas I think I can improve upon in my life" I don't analyze every word to make sure I'm getting across right. Hmmm maybe I can add lack of communication to my list....lol

Post 22 by Goblin (I have proven to myself and the world that I need mental help) on Thursday, 25-Aug-2005 12:11:37

Fabulous I can understand how you feel I know many people say that in order to fit in, or offer their pseudo sympathy, however I do empathise and it's a feckin horrible place to be.

Post 23 by bermuda-triangulese (Help me, I'm stuck to my chair!) on Thursday, 25-Aug-2005 15:55:17

chears, I'm working on it but yeah.

Post 24 by Witchcraft (Account disabled) on Friday, 26-Aug-2005 3:56:03

I wouldn't go so far as to say these are things I hate about myself, although a few years ago I would have said just that, *smile*, but, let's see, 1. My to large breasts, 2. I worry way to much; to the point where I make myself sick, 3. I bite my nails; and am working on trying to change that, 4. To overly sensetive at times and take a lot the wrong way, 5. Not truly sociable enough face to face; guess you could say shy. Well, that's all I can put into words in my current state.

Post 25 by Goblin (I have proven to myself and the world that I need mental help) on Friday, 26-Aug-2005 8:56:43

Fabulous I admire anyone who is able to admit their faults, when so many, are content to runaway from the truth.

Post 26 by bashful (professional hypocrite) on Saturday, 27-Aug-2005 11:15:38

ahhh. Well, I'd say the thing I dislike about myself most is that I'm not good at being myself. I get to caught up in what people want me to be like, and I need to stop that. When I am myself, I make more friends, so I need to give up on becoming someone else. I also need to work on loving myself for who I am. That's always been a tough one. I think I'm getting closer though.

Post 27 by Goblin (I have proven to myself and the world that I need mental help) on Saturday, 27-Aug-2005 11:23:39

Bashful if people want to muold you into a clone of themselves I'd leave them well alone, as they are definately not happy with who they are.

Post 28 by bashful (professional hypocrite) on Saturday, 27-Aug-2005 11:28:07

aww. thanks. I'll keep that one in mind.

Post 29 by PorkInCider (Wind assisted.) on Saturday, 27-Aug-2005 18:48:09

Goblin, how is it you can admire someone who is able to admit their faults, when you clearly are unable to do the same. Is it a yearning to be able to do the same that enables you to admire others?

Post 30 by Harp (I've now got the bronze prolific poster award! now going for the silver award!) on Saturday, 27-Aug-2005 18:52:18

indeed kev. i was struck by the irony of goblin's comments but as he has me on ignore i didn't really see that there was much point in me saying so! lol.

Post 31 by PorkInCider (Wind assisted.) on Saturday, 27-Aug-2005 18:55:03

ah, he has me on ignore too, but we all know he comes to read the boards without signing into the zone, so he can see what those he dislikes are saying about him. So, it's all worth it.

Post 32 by asdfghjkl (Account disabled) on Saturday, 27-Aug-2005 19:27:03

My, my. The irony. I actually have him on ignore as well, but from what you guys are saying, I used context clues. Hahahaha!

Post 33 by The SHU interpreter (I just keep on posting!) on Saturday, 27-Aug-2005 23:04:03

well, to tell you the truth, I am happy with my self. im so proud and I like my self because I am able to go to college, learn alot, and prove others that I can do anything. what you think?

Post 34 by Goblin (I have proven to myself and the world that I need mental help) on Monday, 29-Aug-2005 12:27:21

I'm glad you like yourself which is more than can be said for the detractors

Post 35 by Goblin (I have proven to myself and the world that I need mental help) on Wednesday, 31-Aug-2005 14:45:44

No problem Bashful it helps when you meet these eejits.

Post 36 by The SHU interpreter (I just keep on posting!) on Friday, 18-Nov-2005 0:11:24

what you all think, II like my self because I can overcome many challenges. I like my self because I am able to stick with anything when it comes to studying hard to accomplish my goals.

I like that I'm outspoken. I'm freespirited and fun-loving and carefree! LOL ... I'm bubbly and effervescent, just like Dr. Pepper, which happens to be my favorite beverage, heeheehee. What do I NOT like about myself? I have no idea yet ... I'll have to think on that one.

Post 39 by jessmonsilva (Taking over the boards, one topic at a time.) on Thursday, 24-Nov-2005 15:21:27

Things I hate about myself. Hmmmmm, let's see.
1. My small breasts.
2. My lack of trust for people.
3. The fact that I fall in love too easy.
4. I'm my own worst critic.
5. My lack of communication.
On the other hand however, I love the way I sing, and love being very outgoing and energetic.

i don't hate myself at all, i'm a pretty upbeat person.

Post 41 by Twinklestar09 (I've now got the bronze prolific poster award! now going for the silver award!) on Monday, 19-Dec-2005 21:43:10

I like most things about myself. I guess the main thing that I don't like though is that it's hard for me to keep a casual conversation going (meaning I don't talk to people I don't already know). I don't think it's too much that I'm shy because I do talk to people once I know them, usually because we're already working one-on-one together and see each other more often, but I mean like classmates or other random people. Because of this, it's hard for me to meet new friends (outside of using the computer anyway). So yeah.

Post 42 by Rune Knight (Ancient Demon - Darkness will always conquer Light!) on Sunday, 29-Jan-2006 9:44:05

Here is what I hate aboot myself.




1. I'm to kind to others, and tend to get taken advantage of even though I know it's happening.


2. I have trouble speaking up.


3. I procrastinate way to damn much.


4. I worry about things way to much and stress over them.


5. I find myself giving into peer pressure. EXMPLE: If I were here on the Zone and one of my friends bashing someone I myself right there bashing whoever it is along side them. I hate it and I've honestly been trying to quit doing that. It's hard to do without someone supporting me on it though.

1. I give in too easily. 2. I can not tell my parents off. 3. Too less self-confidence. 4. I am not patient enough.

Post 45 by The SHU interpreter (I just keep on posting!) on Friday, 24-Feb-2006 7:39:16

well, everyone has different types of personalities, strengths and weaknesses. I feel that those weaknesses can become strong.

I hate that i bothered to open a depressing topic that didnt need to be made
