I do a lot of things that make me seem to just ask for trouble. For the most part I try to avoid confrontation at all costs, but that just seems to pent up problems & one day that dam of problems is bound to explode. I know I probably shouldn't be so afraid & be willing to take chances, but I can't bring myself to. I'm afraid that I'll lose friends, that I'll end up looking like a jerk. At the same time I'll talk smack without trying to resolve problems. I'll talk about people and my problems with them that I've never really tried to resolve. Things won't magically fix themselves & I know that but I don't have the courage to try to resolve my own problems myself.
I also rarely listen to people who have more experience and/or knowledge on the subject/life in general than me. Example: Mommy says don't be friends with her, she'll end up a slut & use you. I didn't listen, "you don't know her, she's not like that". . . guess what happened? My friend's a slut & constantly uses me, but I don't have the courage to take a stand for myself.
-Sigh- I seem to manage to do things that bite me in the ass. I don't take advice when I know that I should. I'm one of those "learn for myself by making my own mistakes" kind of people. . . yeah, that's a bad type of person to be. . .
I wonder if all people are like me.
