So, here's the deal
you are supposed to like people for who they are. not who they could be if they just changed this one little thing, or these few little things. who they are. if you don't like who they are, then don't be friends with them. the world does not revolve around you. you are one person. sure, you may have different behavior patterns than others, but you know what, that's what makes the world such a great place. we are all unique. we shouldn't all be the same. we each have our own personalities. the world would suck if we were all the same. so just deal with people's faults (or fault's as you see them, because not everyone sees the same things as faults), or don't be around those people.
you cannot make someone out to be on a pedestal if you're going to find faults with them and get upset over who they are. you know how the person is when the friendship begins. if you didn't like how that person was, then maybe, just maybe, you shouldn't have become their friend. and you sure as hell shouldn't have expected it to be something perfect and magical or whatever. maybe people aren't as innocent as you think. maybe you have a false image of them. because you want to see them a certain way, in truth, you don't see what is actually being presented to you.
and while we're on it...let's talk about this: so you're so innocent and grand and wonderful, but you can talk about someone behind their back. yeah, cause that's so sin-free. maybe you should re-evaluate yourself before you go and try to change others, huh? if i don't have a guilty conscience about who i am, what i do, or how i act, it is really none of your business. and the same goes for other people. so why don't you leave your nose where it belongs.
oh. oh. oh. maybe you also shouldn't try so hard to be liked by people. because the same is true in reverse. they should like you for who you are, not how many "sweet" things you do for them. and just for future reference, when you try that hard, it's not sweet anymore, it gets annoying.
and there really shouldn't be any bitching (whoa...should i have said fussing?) to anyone who didn't write this. i am the one who wrote it. i don't know exactly what anyone else thinks. maybe some other people think the same, but don't want to be so blunt as to say it. i decided to speak my mind (which is one of my personality traits, like it or not), and this is what i think. so deal with it and get over it. i don't have to please you or conform to your stupid standards. i have my own, and i am happy with who i am. so i cuss, occasionally have a drink, and yes, i have had premarital sex. i don't get drunk. i don't use drugs...never have. i am not a whore. i don't sleep around. i have high goals and aspirations for myself. i have excellent grades in school. i had my first college degree at the age of 19. i have a good job. i am responsible. compared to most people, i'd have to say i'm an overall good person. so you know what, i don't care what your opinion is.
and this is my livejournal, and if you don't like what i say, don't read it. thank you and goodnight.
