good things
I had a class in which we were told to write a letter to ourselves. What we had to write were all the things we loved about ourselves...and then things we wish we could change. You also had to put in how you could improve on the things you like and how you can change the things you want to. For most people this was pretty hard. Some people didn't really care, and just wrote down whatever to get it done. But this is what I wrote:
Dear Andrea,
I love that you laugh at everything (mostly yourself), and you always try to look at the brighter side of life. I think it's great that all of your friends call you when they're going through a hard time and need some advice. You have a laid-backed personality and don't take anything too seriously. Ever wonder why people compliment your hair all the time? It's because you have great hair. Also, you have mad cooking skills. I love that you love to read and you can name every song that plays on the radio. You make friends easy, and never pass down a chance to have fun. You're spontaneous. I have no idea how you'd improve any of these other than, you should become a chef.
Although these are all great, there are some things I'd like if you could change. I wish you weren't so vulnerable. You cry too easily, and why don't you let anyone help you when you're going through a bad time intead of blocking them out? You have the worst jealousy issues. You've never kept a promise to yourself, and you probably never will. I hate that you're so self-centerd and you have no trust. And why do you have to be so vain? What really gets me...you can never make up your mind. JUST MAKE UP YOUR FUCKING MIND ALREADY. I'll never understand why you lie to everyone. And just because your source of strength ( or what strength you have anyway) comes from God, doesn't mean you take after him. Try smiling instead of crying.
P.S., Be yourself for once, just once...and then maybe
he'd love you back.
Just a suggestion,
Love Andrea.
At the end of the class he informed us we didn't have to turn this in.

10 Things I like and Dislike about being in and out of love
10 Things I dig---
- Pure and uninhibited sex that comes from mutual interest and respect. The dirty stuff that you always wanted to try but couldn't try til you found the right partner. Especially if you like it rough....(I'm just saying)
- Beginning a discussion of my day from the point of view of a character I made up and having my lover indulge my fantasy...(this is HUGE for me, I'm pretty damn dramatic).
- The glow that comes from connection. Knowing that you arent in it alone is good for the esteem.
- Someone to take care of when the mood hits. This may just be me but I was raised to be a good and domestic Southern Girl and I sometimes can't help but dig up old markers in the DNA.
- Having one person in the world who understands that a fight is temporary. I fight with acid sarcasm and knowing that I can vent without a person falling to pieces is one of the best things about being in Love with the right person.
- Inside Jokes! I love having a little inside thing that is just ours that makes us giggle or grit our teeth at the same time.
- Someone to cheer me up when I hit a low (which honestly isn't often)
- Taking liberties with someone. You know, like poking fun at them in way that had you both doubled over in laughter.
- Having a man secure enough to accept flowers from a woman! (yeah, that's how I roll)
- Sharing their BITCHING Book collection! (I used to dig a guy whose taste in books was exquisite!)
- New and Fresh single-ness you feel with initial breakup
- The desperation you act on to try to re-assemble the house of cards that was the relationship.
- Realizing how careless you had been with your heart, home and/or wallet. That naive and defeated feeling that comes with the cool light of day that clears the cobwebs.
- The prospect of starting all over with someone new
- the absence of physical connection-the accidental daily touches. The sex (especially if it was good)
- Handling the minutiae of closing the Chapter. The exchange of property and the issue of future boundaries
- Controlling emotions, fits of rage or depression with no productive way to vent.
- Seeing them with someone new. Watching them love another harder and deeper than they ever loved you.
- Trying to assign or dodge blame. Once the depression ends the anger sets in and you just want to be right. Especially when you KNOW that you are indeed the one who IS right.
- Watching all your freaky secrets leave with that person and having to rely on their discretion.
Have a great day y'all and be sure to check our Bloggers Delight 2 Write for a wonderful and varied selection of writing....(careful there is some explicit language and situations on the site).

I've been tempted to write this for awhile now. Normally when I have an idea, it'll fade out again in a couple of hours. However, this next thing I'm going to write has been in my head for about a month. Why? I have no idea. Maybe because I find it important in some way. Many of you won't want to read it and that's okay. Mostly it's for me. To remind me in it's own way. But I've been compelled to write this, so here I go.
A lot of times when people get out of relationships, they tend to remember the reason they broke up. The unhappy things, the problems. But I don't want to think about all my exes this way. I loved some of them, I loathed a few. But one of the most important thing from this and from them, is that I must remember that they shaped me. They showed me wonderful things. They showed me who I was. And I think that's really important. I don't want to forget them. And I guess, I never will. So in this next bit, I'm going to remind myself of what they've done and the good times. And those who are lucky to be on GJ get a cut tag around here so you can avoid it. Myspace, however, gets to SUFFER!
Colin was my first love. And sometimes with love, very honest love, comes confusion and heartbreak. We had a lot of that but now a days when I think back to the time we were together, I try to remember all the fun and happy things we did. I didn't start dating until a month before my 18th birthday. I had been friends with him for a couple of months and I had fallen head over heels for him the moment I saw him. He was gorgeous, he could sing, and he had the most lovely golden eyes I had seen. And for some reason, he didn't just over look me like a lot of guys. I got up the guts to ask for his phone number and from that moment on, I found a person that meant a whole lot to me. Not only was the timing right (troubles with my dad and friends) but it was right at a point that was crucial for me to grow. I was going to go to college. Anyhow...He taught me that it was okay to be intimate with a person and not to constantly fret over physical appearances. He pushed me to be better. We had weight challenges with each other, we would excersize and not think about it. He took me hiking and didn't discriminate me because of my weight. He made me feel so special in so many ways. He taught me how to love, and though I caught on late, he taught me how to do it so I wasn't afraid of what others thought. He also made me realize how fragile my heart was and what it was like to lose it. Though things have sadly fallen to a horrible relationship between us, I will never forget him. He really was my best friend, my lover, and my love all at the same time.
Steve was next and I didn't really date him long. Out of everyone, he's the one I'm glad I don't talk to anymore. He frankly used me. And he used me when I was weak. But I began to understand that and now I'm stronger because of it.
Will/Colin. I feel very awkward about calling him just Colin, but that's what he goes by. William is his first name. Anyhow...After my terrible break down I had after my first boyfriend and the eventual used feeling from my second washed over me, I got sucked into an online game. And while I was on there, I met this person who I thought was an older (40's) woman! I got really close and comfortable talking to this person because I didn't have to do it face to face. And it turned out really weird because this woman turned out to be a man about my age. And this guy could sense my moods through a computer. And through his care and attention, he began lifted me out of my deep depression that I had been for a year. He gave me faith, hope, attention. He relieved me from my guilt over Colin. He helped me when I didn't think I could get up anymore. And because of him, I'm thankful everyday. Because no matter what, I know there's someone else out there. Someone who can help and care and I'm never alone.
Bryan. Oh geeze, Bryan. We didn't really date but I can say this, he definitely made me feel like I was a woman again. And that even though I'm a bigger girl, you can be beautiful.
Aaron was my most recent ex. It's really hard to decide where this began and where it really ended. He, besides Colin, was the only other man and boyfriend I ended up truly loving. He was sort of my whirlwind relationship. I met him on the Internet, and I flew off to meet him when my parents didn't want me to come home for the holidays. And I found everything I was looking for there. Home, family, escape from my past, love, future. There was so much there. Well I went back to school and then when things fell through with school and some things happened with him, I decided I was going to move to Indiana to live with him. And for the entire two months I lived there, I loved it. The only thing I seemed to be missing was him. Something happened there between us. And essentially, it drove me away. But it never changed the fact that I cared for him. I guess the real big realizations about my feelings for him came much later. About a year later. Because I still thought of him. And I wished that I would have gotten to know him so much better. I wish all the love and acceptance I had found in Indiana had been completed by him. If it had, I'd probably still be there. But I still had some growing to do and some flaws I needed to fix. I learned I should have talked to him more. After all, he made me be stronger and realize what I want in my life and in love. He really made me realize that life can be full of music and new adventures and no matter how much you think you've grown, you can always grow more.
And everything that's changed me the most drastically, has been from these men. Because as much as people want to think that they don't need these people or that these people didn't mean as much, they really did. I changed because of these men. I changed because of others as well. Men, women, friends, family. But I can definitely say that no matter how many tears I've cried or how many times I've had a broken heart, these are the people who made my heart beat and make me bounce in my step. And no matter what, they've made me into a better person. I will always love them for that. Always.
