Ask Me Anything Meme - Curiosity Never Killed The Cat
Basically, a free-for-all for you guys to be nosy, or if you're newer, to figure out shit you're not really clear on. I'm enabling the anon option in case you don't feel comfortable asking something "face-to-face", as it were. I'm also posting it with the hopes that it spreads - sometimes with LiveJournal and such the way it is, people change and

1) A nasty attitude towards others. It doesn't matter that you have the face and body of a god(dess) if you're an arrogant, self-centered piece of shit.
2) A callous attitude towards animals. You can tell a lot about a person by how they treat animals, and the first thing I try to figure out is how they treat their companion animals, if they have any.
3) Sexism. That's an instant deal-breaker. If you don't respect me and other women, you're not worthy of me. (Sounds cocky, but I'm not desperate enough to date a chauvinist.)
4) A blase attitude towards one's own hygiene. I'm not the cleanest individual ever, so it's not like the person has to shower twice a day, every day, or any nonsense. But there are obvious signs that you don't care for your body and/or your health; if your hair and skin are always greasy, and your have intense body odor from cigarettes/alcohol/unhealthy lifestyle, that's... not... attractive.
41. The nicest thing anyone’s ever said to me.
Hmmm.... honestly, something positive towards my writing never fails to make me feel better about myself - my art skills are nothing of note, I can't sing at all, and I'm not the most athletic individual. Writing's the only thing that, more often than not, I feel confident that I can do with some degree of ability.
"Whoever has to honor to date you is a lucky man." Though it came from a guy that ended up being a jerk, hearing multiple remarks about how desirable and beautiful he found me, and the way that they were given, was a huge ego boost. They were things I needed to hear at the time, considering that my confidence had been completely shattered. It did a lot to make me feel that, just maybe, someone could find someone as fucked-up as me to be a girl they could still fall for. It's just a shame that all that ego-boosting came with its own set of pitfalls and realizations, but no rose is without its thorns.
46. My biggest worry currently.
Money. They say money can't buy happiness, but it can certainly make the security required to experience happiness much easier to attain.
If I had more money, I wouldn't be so stressed about work. My job performance is rated by sales, and it's not easy to focus on sales when you barely make enough to cover the bills with some left over for - perish the thought - having fun or just... as an "in case" fund.
If I had more money, I would be going back to school. I was derailed in junior year, and I'm not happy where I am. The careers that would make me the happiest would require a degree of some sort, and I only have an AA.
If I had more money, I would try looking for a therapist. I feel like, though I'm functioning for the most part, there's way too much that's mucky and that I'm just covering up with distractions rather than confronting with another person to give me their unbiased opinion on how to move past it. I don't want to be distracted - I want to move on.
