ok, so i just finished rereading my 5 minute writing from five minute friday, you can read it here. i sound like a depressed, not fun, really, really insecure person! i swear i'm not really. well, maybe a bit insecure.
i'm really a fun person. i love to laugh. i love hanging out with people. i love talking about pretty much anything. i think most people like me. i'm not a controversial or divisive person.
what i do have issues with is meeting people for the first time. i don't enjoy going into situations where i don't know people or where there are a lot of people and i think that's where my five minute post came from. it's true that i don't share very much of myself when meeting someone for the first time. i'll laugh and have fun, but inside i'll be unsure and questioning.
i'm definitely a person who has a few really close friends and then lots of other friends that i can hang out with and be comfortable with. my 'who should i call when i want to hang out on short notice' list is short. there's only 2 or 3 people on it, but if someone were to call me and say, 'hey, let's do something.' i'd go.
all this to say, i am generally a happy, fun, easy to get along with person. you just may have to hang out with me several times before i feel comfortable enough to let the deeper parts of me out.
Ooops . . . the addendum post of 5 minute Friday was what I actually read. I'll have to read the other one now too. "Thank you for visiting my blog and for your very sweet comment. After reading your post, I'm sure that we would be good friends and meeting you would be fantastic. I'm a follower and look forward to getting to know you more! :-) Have a wonderful day. Thank you for your very honest and beautifully written 5 minutes."
