yeah! haha im so simple don't see how ANYONE could be so confused...

i get:
1)your cold and distant..is anything wrong?
2)You show others a mirror of themselves..some people don't like seeing their dark side. (guess i'm too blunt..or too honest)
3)A.D.D.

It used to bother me when people couldn't understand me. But then it hit me...people don't "try" to understand anything/anyone who ticks differently than they do. In other words, it's not something to take personal, so I stopped taking it so personal.

The people who try to understand me b/c they're either alot like me OR b/c they really want to, eventually DO understand me. Understanding an Aqua is not some impossible challenge or obstacle course--it IS possible...just takes the right kind of individual.

Yes I'm often told that I'm a little TOO blunt for everyone's liking. People want me to soften my words or sugar coat my words so that I can soften the blow to their ego. Whether or not I will depends on the situation. If you're my friend & you need the diehard truth, don't count on me sugar-coating anything.

I'm told that:
1. I'm non-forgiving when someone betrays me to the limit. I'm very good at acting like someone doesn't exist once they've hurt me. Some people hate this about me, while others wish they knew how to disconnect emotionally from someone when need be.

2. I pick up on everything. I notice every little detail & the things that others skipped over/missed. I'm very thorough in my observations. It's pretty hard to pull something over my head & fool me. I think it's b/c I've learned to pay more attention to what people are NOT saying/doing, moreso than what they are saying/doing. I.E..I'm good at reading b/w the lines

3. I'm too independent socially. I don't need a huge group of friends around me all the time to feel "alive." Sometimes my version of "fun" is me, all alone, with the tv & a crossword puzzle, by myself. People don't understand how I can be just as content when I'm alone as I am when I'm around others

On a scale from 1-10 I would say a 6,I don't feel like anything I say is "smart" or above what should be considered normal but ppl always put me above that standard!It's annoying,that makes me REALLY wonder what goes through everyones elses mind half the time..oh & i def. get BLUNT or str8 forward,now that is understandable because I really don't like beating around the bush.lol
