get over yourself and take control of your life.
if you want something, go get it.

I find the majority of people who preach "everything happens for a reason" are at some highpoint in their lives and realize that through certain intricasies(sp) they wouldn't be in the current good stuff if it wasn't for certain events in the bad stuff

Nobody is themselves at work outside the break room. I don't think there is a person who exists that is boring enough to fit into the employee expectations of blockbuster or the bay without taking it down a few notches.

Actually, the adapting/changing thing vs. selling out wasn't in relation to work. They hadn't told me to not joke around with customers, either.

As for karma, maybe this life IS my next life? Who knows.

I am in love with the best friend that was always there for me when I needed someone; in fact I had been for years, I just never did anything about it because I didn't think they were interested in that way. Turns out we were both just shy about it and would have continued being terminally hopeless forever if things hadn't changed rather. This doesn't have any relevance to you, I suppose, but in my case it wasn't that I went looking for the arseholes, they were just the only ones blatant enough to make their interest obvious. *shrug*

I understand that, but at the same time, I can 99% guarantee you that any of these people I have a thing for do not feel the same for me. I have no idea who, if anybody, has feelings towards me.

So, I guess it's just a personal thing for me, then, that all of the times I've made my interest known, it's been to people who haven't felt the same back. Anybody I haven't let know, I have a pretty good idea they don't. Experience tells me that if I tell them I like them, they'll get awkward and not feel comfortable even hanging around me anymore, even though I make it clear that I'm comfortable with them not liking me that way.

So what's your advice, then? My feelings seldom ever seem to be mutual with another, but if I ever want to double check to make sure, I end up losing a friend as well.

I'm hoping it's just the maturity level of these people that results in them reacting the way they do to your interest in them. I'm hoping that --one day-- they all grow up, realize how stupid their reactions were, and smack themselves in the head because they managed to lose a friend out of pure idiocy.

You know its funny. Reading this comment about maturity, becuase I see it all the time in University. Even among my own friends. I have quite a few friends that are younger then me, but at times you can seriously see their maturity level being much lower then my own...

I have no advice to give you on what you should do. I like the "being yourself" thing, becuase that's what I do. It's not perfect (just look at what's going on in my life) but it's the only way I know how to handle these things.

ahhhhh, so how can one offer advice when said reciever has heard all the basics of the "advice" one can give. (now of course, this is under the estimation and assumption that you are looking for advice...but we've touched each other in special places so i can say what i want
