Dave's Meme

[thehefner]

Yes, I realize that this meme is kind of flirting with disaster, especially here on LJ, but I'm narcisstic and masochistic, not to mention bored. Put 'em together, and your get a Heffie cocktail! Anyway, here's Dave's meme:

Post a comment telling me what you think my 3 best and worst qualities as a person are. Please be specific if you can, then post this meme in your journal and i will do the same for you.

wow. okay... this is going to be hard.

These are gonna sound vague but I'm hoping you'll get what i mean. If you want more specificity please let me know.

1.) You freely give your love even after having your heart broken. You refuse to let it make you too cynical to take a risk on loving someone.
2.) You are incredibly loyal to your friends. I've not known you to be malicious towards anyone.
3.) No matter how depressed you get at times, it is clear that your driving force is optimism and fearless perseverance. It's clear to me that you will never give up or compromise on your search for happiness.

1.) You can be overindulgent in your sorrow at times, and that can be very counterproductive in moving past it.
2.) You have tendency, in my experience, to feel guilty for things that aren't your fault and you can be irrationally stubborn at times.
3.) You often use your sense of humor as a defense mechanism.

1.) You're very sensitive, and not a emotional brick wall
2.) You always make me laugh
3.) You're one of the kindest people I know, and are always there for your friends.

Negative:

1.) You think that the things that you're interested in are the only things worth being interested in
2.) You turn everything, even heartache, into a monologue. This distances you from everyone else.
3.) You require a lot of energy to keep up with. This isn't really a negative, but I'm out of negatives, and when I'm tired, I guess it's sorta negative...

Okay, I totally missed the boat on this one and I'm just now getting around to posting to people (because it's hard, man!) and putting it in my own lj. Forgive the lateness, and I am, of course, curious to see what, if anything, you post in mine :-P

Good Things:

1. You are a compassionate, compassionate fella, John. You allow yourself to be open and caring and let all sorts of things touch you, it seems. You're a wonderful guy to come to with problems, because either you've been down that road yourself, you have good sound advice, or you're just willing to listen, and maybe play some pretty classical music for an angsty gal.

2. You are so excited about the things that you love! I swear it's contagious too--you get me really pumped up about things even as small as internet flash cartoons. It's great that you have such passion and that you're also willing to share it with others.

3. You're very talented and you work hard honing your skills. This is a great combo. I'd thought that you were a good actor before, but now I'm really starting to see the polish come through. Maybe it's because you've had great opportunities this year, but I think it's you growing and shaping your talent and it's cool to see.

Negative Things

1. You hang onto things longer than you ought to sometimes, it seems. Speaking from experience, I know how hard this is, to just let things go, especially when they seem so important. But in the end, it looks like clinging is really just hurting you, and it hurts the people who love you to see you suffer, especially when it looks like it could be remedied.

2. Relationship wise, you get hung up on people bigtime. This is great in that you're clearly incredibly dedicated and loyal, but it can get less than great when the feelings aren't reciprocated. I guess this sort of goes along with hanging onto things.

3. I have to agree with 2sick2pray's comment in that you don't seem to be great at helping yourself out when you're sad or just less than good. Sometimes you need just simple comforts, but other times you need to climb out of bed and face the day without agonizing over what could have been or what might be. Or maybe that's just the way I handle things. I dunno.

I hope this was helpful. :-P
