but seriously folks...

I escape. I don't want to dwell on problems, so I get involved in 'fun' stuff, and forget them. I know when I face them, I can typically solve them, but it's like I need to have some stressor looming over me for some reason. Couple that with my habit of not wanting to talk about things that bother me and I come off as deceptive to those closest to me.

I also have very low will power when it comes to indulging myself. I don't have any patience when I want something.

boy, I suck.

AM deceptive. see how passive aggression works? I don't even realize I'm doing it. saying I 'come off as' puts the onus on the perceiver. If I do things that SEEM deceptive, I AM being deceptive.

I dont know...perception isn't always reality. And 'deception' has a bad connotation to it. I am purposely deceptive a lot of times, but its usually just because I don't have the energy or desire to go into a big explanation. Or maybe I havent really sorted out my feeling enough to do so yet.
