Things I've Learned about Myself That I Am Reluctant to Admit

I read strictly for entertainment. Don't care to waste my time reading stuff that is going to keep me up at night.

I also happen to be the world's slowest reader. I am easily distracted. I often have to read the same sentence more than once. I've heard they make medication for this...

I love technology, would love to have a million gadgets, although I would need a remedial course to learn to use them.

I could never have an eating disorder. Food is pleasure.

I could never be a vegetarian. I have lost 10 lbs since the first of the year, and I miss hamburgers most.

I actually do expect people to treat me the way I treat them. I'm always shocked and sad if they don't.

I am unreasonably attached to my hair. It is very traumatic to me to get a bad haircut or to have too much cut off at the salon.

I am a hopeless romantic. I happen to believe in love and in love at first sight.

I am old-fashioned. I WANT to be a liberated woman, I really do, but I also want to be taken care of and spoiled and protected.

Turns out I am not invincible.

I care what people think of me. It matters to me. It really does.

I am always disappointed when I meet someone that has somehow failed to learn the social graces.

I am a shameless Texan. My heart beats faster the closer I get to the capitol.

I have trust issues - perhaps more so with myself than with others.

I am a cheap skate.

I am a simple person. I have deep thoughts, but I find no advantage in using too many words to express them.

If I can't understand the lyrics to a song, I get highly agitated. Why have lyrics if no one can understand them? There, I said it. And I'm not sorry.

My instincts happen to be very good, but I often ignore them. I have no explanation for this.

I am flattered when boys look my way. I said "look." No touching. No commenting. Just looking.

What sort of things have you discovered about yourself that you might be reluctant to admit?
