Most websites that you register for, weather it be Myspace, Facebook, Forums, etc... you're asked to fill out an about me section, or a profile of some sort describing how you want other people to feel about you. Normally people give a quick synopsis including: "I like to do this, I hate that, I want to meet my soul mate, ...tall, dark and handsome..."blah...blah...blah. The whole idea behind an "About Me" section is to honestly depict yourself to the public, in a way that gives them an idea of who you are, what you are about, your values, your methods, so they can have an idea if they might connect with you.
So why cheat your public eyes? Wouldn't the idea to be completely honest so that a connection will be as accurate as possible? Why do people feel it's necessary to inflate themselves so much? To shield their real selves with the self- absorbed wall?
I'm not going to lie, I do it to. The positive, attractive parts of my self are far more interesting than the negative, but it's a complete waste of time if your worst can't be tolerated by your viewers. Therefore wasting a lot of time on both parts. I tend to mention how well I get along with people, how positive I am in the worst situations, how I see the best in the worst people, whoo I seem amazing. But in reality It's bullshit. I mean I am all of those things, but there's so very much more to me. So many complexities that could be a total turn off for some.
So now I've ranted about vague, self-absorbed about me sections, and now I will write my real, raw, down and dirty "about me section: Raw Me....at:
Hi. My names Britney. I'm insecure. I love people, I always take the time to find out the good qualities, with that being said, I am impatient and if your true colors don't shine bright pretty soon i'll forget you even existed. I get bored with the same routine. I can't stand or sit for too long. I love sex, if it's good. I will never admit i need help, and if you try to help me i'll be very offended. I like meeting new people. I have lots of numbers in my cell phone that i don't even know. I have recently found a self control pattern. I am a vegitarian and a non smoker. I enjoy doing anything. But I can't stand when people are indicisive. I am critically honest. I change moods and you should probably fuck off when that happens. I will never betray my best friends. Not for anyone, they have earned their place in my heart. I will tell you upfront how i feel. you must be able to handle constructive citicism.. very rarley recieving apreciative feeback. I'm happy and enjoy my life. I get irritable and you'll know when it happens. OKay yeah... theres only so much you can get from a profile. You'll never know me till you ask.
Blah... blah... blah...there so much more i could add but I'm lazy so yeah.
More people would meet people that they are compatible with if they'd get off there high horse and be honest. I love everything about me and am proud to be an extroverted, vain bitch.
