I have no problem apologizing when it is warranted. the only time I will hold off an apology where necissary is if the act of or the apology itself will give me more grief from that person later on. Just like there are two types of people whom apologize, those who have a hard time doing it and those who don't, there are two types of apology recievers. Those who take it as a genuine realization of incorrect behavior on the part of the apologizer, and those who use the apology as a means of manipulation. It is generally not bennificial to apologize to the latter.

"I think nic' is overly serious these days."

"I don't know if it is overly serious or not, but somethings up... Was up Nic—"

I think I have only been posting in the serious topics. I didn't realize I was beeing overly serious but everything has been going pretty good. Good but hectic, good but stressful. I think every compartment of my life has something important going on in it right now and even though I have a lot to be greateful for it takes a lot of calculating on each end. None of it is cirtain either so I am trying to keep everything progressing towards that as I go. Don't want to get to talking to much about myself though LOL...gonna need a some tenacity and a little luck for the next month or two though.

🙂

Theres a smile.

To keep on topic, my Virgo ex said "sorry" a hundred times a day and it rubbed off a little. I think it is polite though to drop a sorry when you accidentally bump in to someone or go for something on the table at the same time as someone else. As far as the heavy stuff goes I think Libras just want to be absolutely cirtain that the other person knows EXACTLY what we are saying sorry for. A lot of times were not sorry either. Some stuff falls in to the category of "you have to do what you have to do...everyone knows the rules here" but I am not so much that type of person. It isn't hard for me to say sorry but sometimes it is easier to stand your ground if that makes any sense at all?

Yeah, this whole year in general has taken some thick skin that is for sure. I am kind of at a pivitol point right now. I am feeling out a potential work situation that could lead me back into my passion but I am having to do it in my off time when I am not working my day job which is another situation of serious potential...both are a do my best and wait and see situation. I don't like waiting to see. I am a free agent for both companies so......while I am stable in that I have two sources of income....I am in an industry with one that I am lucky to be in and the other has a specific niche that I could both fulfill and enjoy (training) but if NEITHER of them provide what I need then I am pretty much back to square one. Square one being deciding what direction I want go with my life and essentially starting over.

All in the middle of trying to find a new house. Correct several financial issues do to unforseen/emergency expenses that happened at pretty much absolutely the wrong all the while wanting desperately in the middle of all of this to just spend as much time as possible with my girlfriend. That is a big one right there. This is the first relationship I have ever been in where I WANT to change things around as far as MY life and goals are concerned to improve the quantity and quality time of the relationship.

However, I am taking it all in stride aside from the stress of it all having the symptom of being overly serious at times. While this year has been a struggle through and through, I have learned so much about myself that I would go through it ALL over again if I had to. It's worth what you get from it.
