Not necessarily true.Originally Posted by Director Abbie
I am pretty good at keeping my schedule open much of the time. I can often be ready at an hour's notice to drop everything and help a friend, and I often do. How is that not dependable?
Disciplined, I am not. Dependable, I believe I am.

Input, PLEASEAnd thank you
good to know you are not competent at typing.
btw rational and irrational isn't complementary, they are opposites. Duals are complementary and share same rationality.
I have plans, not goals.
You want time to prepare for a party because you're shy and middle-class and vulnerable to negative social criticism and need time to 'prepare your defenses' in case somebody says something that you don't like. (The root of social anxiety)
A lot of people are that way though.
Nothing to do with being a judger. I love you a lot dear but I believe that's just an excuse.
This is hard to do and takes practice, but when somebody says things we don't like it's no excuse not to live our own lives, is it? Parties can be a lot of fun! Of course there will be your jerks there that aren't very empathetic to your feelings....but I think if I let them ruin my happiness, then that makes me the weak one. Sometimes I just want to dance like the world is ending and not care what anybody else thinks of me, of how gay I am, of how awkward I am, of all my 'loser qualities' you know? I just want to be....free.
Now I'm trying to lighten up more and enjoy parties and extroverted-ish stuff and not be intimidated by all the manly straight jocks. I'll just hit on them instead and use my gay powers on them. =D
Kassie and Bardia expressed how I experience this. And whether I'm up for doing something spontaneous depends in part on whether I was imagining being spontaneous in advance, lol.i was skimming through the thread and trying to think of how to explain my attitude toward plans and then i saw this which i can relate to a lot.
i'm not a planner but i tend to see things going a certain way - not necessarily like a goal or anything, but just what i expect to happen, i guess. as opposed to just seeing everything up in the air, which is a perspective i have a hard time imagining.
i have no problem doing things at the last minute on principle, but i can feel blindsided by things - like if i'm sitting around in sweatpants and expecting to spend the day reading and somebody invites me out, it takes some mental/mood adjusting and that adjusting in and of itself might take more energy than i feel like expending. or i might get excited and really want to go. lol. depends on anything, i guess.
If I'm blindsided or pulled off course a lot, I get irritated or even exhausted.

LSI: “I don’t have ideas.”
You're just being shy
A billion psychological excuses to discover why
Therapy offices, drugs, bills and jobs
But...
You're just being shy
Everybody is so shy like you
Secluded in their own world of 'me' and 'you'
Wanting to drown in the romantic blue
Can't you please wise up?
And learn that everybody is shy like you
You say it's your function or type
That its cuz you're born under the mercury sun
With a flourscent tiger's stripe
Narcissists couldn't absorb like you do
But you're just being shy, hey you
It's okay, be weak for a second
And just cry
Just die a little when you need to
And you'll come out
Stronger on the other side
Because you're just shyyyy
(Everybody is in their own way)
You're just shyyyy
You can't expect that they will protect your ruse
A prick will break it down for you
And maybe you'll think they haven't got a clue
But they were once,
Shy like you
