i need you, it's nothing new
1. Have been studying Psych like a mad woman in the lounge. This chapter is actually fairly interesting (although it doesn't excuse the fact that it needlessly spans some 40-odd pages). This quiz in particular caught my attention: "What's Your Attachment Style?"
Avoidant people fear intimacy and expect their relationships to fail. They place a higher value on work than on relationships and generally like their work and job security. They follow a workaholic pattern, but (not surprisingly) they are dissatisfied with their coworkers.
Too bad my mom was generally good to me when I was a child (except that one time when she tied up all my limbs with rope--kind of like a pig about to get roasted--and to this day, I wonder how she could forget to gag me since my teeth were the only reason I was able to wriggle out of that situation at all hahaha) so I formed attachment to her regardless of what an evil biatch she turned out to be later. D: OH WELL. C'EST LA VIE.
Which do you think you are? I'm really curious. (Fay's undoubtedly the first...)
There's no point in listing what secure individuals are like anyway, because they inevitably win at life, the lucky bastards.
2. Last year, when I hadn't eaten for five or six days, the thing that drove me crazy and eventually broke me was fresh white bread. Question: If you were on a hunger strike, what food do you think would break you? (And don't give me answers like "chocolate" or "a nice big bottle of Jack Daniel's," because unless you're Tiffany Matloob, you don't actually live off chocolate, okay? REAL ANSWERS, NOW, FLIST.)
Despite everything, I'm still a simple girl at heart. (White bread! ♥)
- I am somewhat uncomfortable being close to others; I find it difficult to trust them completely, difficult to allow myself to depend on them. I am nervous when anyone gets too close, and love partners often want me to be more intimate than I feel comfortable being.
- I find that others are reluctant to get as close as I would like. I often worry that my partner doesn't really love me or won't want to stay with me. I want to get very close to my partner, and this sometimes scares people away.
- I find it relatively easy to get close to others and am comfortable depending on them. I don't often worry about being abandoned or about someone getting too close to me.
