    srsly. i fucking LOVE myself. luckily i don't think i come across as a massive douche IRL because i don't think it shows much (plus i'm incredibly friendly. another reason as to why i'm so freaking awesome). i've not always been this way; for me it definitely comes with age. when i was 18/19 i was VERY wet behind the ears and didn't feel all that comfortable with myself. FF to 21 and i loved myself lots, but perhaps a bit too much and i came across as arrogant (who didn't at that age?).

    since then though i feel like i've ironed out a lot of my negative personality traits. don't get me wrong - i still have a lot of them, but the point is i recognize them and i'm working on deleting them altogether. it's this fact which is one of the main reasons i love myself so very much: i can feel myself becoming a better person. i'll think things through more*, i'll listen to other viewpoints and be willing to change my mind, i'll admit when i'm wrong, i'll not take baits as often, i'll rise above pettiness, rationalize things; when something pisses me off, instead of just being pissed off i'll trace a route to the cause (and more often than not i'll learn it's just something that doesn't ACTUALLY, like ACTUALLY affect me, so i can convince myself to get over it)...

    omfg this is becoming tl;dr. i think i'm amazing. is anyone else the same? or is anyone going to admit to their neuroses?

    [SIZE=1]*except for making this thread, which makes me sound like a ma-hoosive cunt.[/SIZE]

    I always told women, "I'm white, and I have the penis to prove it."

    i count two, three if you include this one before you posted. they were done overnight, fwiw. but, if you're not satisfied, hide the threads you don't like.

    You have to be confident in your self if you want to go anywhere in life IMO. I most certainly would never go around acting like I am better than everyone else because I do not believe that to be the case but if some girl blows me off or something I just think of it as her loss.

    I used lack self confidence and I gained a bit of weight and it sucked, now I try to keep my fitness up and overall that makes me feel a lot better about myself.

    I had some chick contact me thru craigslist when I put my apartment up for a third roommate, we ended up finding one but I fbooked her email and she seemed really hot, I told her the place was filled but I could show her around sometime since she was new to the city. We started texting a fair amount and eventually I met her at a bar. I was hammered but she literally came up to me, said hi, gave me a hug and then said her and her friend were leaving and never talked to me after. The old me would have taken that situation pretty brutally but the "new" me literally just lol'd.

    Removing/Reducing my ego to zero is the best thing that I have accomplished. It's so much easier when nothing at all has anything to do with you, yet you are a part of it all.

    From what I have learned, it is very difficult to maintain a healthy and happy relationship if you have a big ego.
