I wholeheartedly agree with what magicvixen says, Jodi. Except for that ‘all weekend picking out names for your kids’ part.

You are grown up now.

You should definitely watch Good Will Hunting. “You’re not perfect sport, and let me save you the suspense, this girl you’ve met she’s not perfect either. But the question is whether or not you’re perfect for each other.”

girl, you need to get over yourself and realize that you’re setting yourself up for failure here. why are you always trying to convince yourself that you’re not good enough when, in reality, you’re the one who should say, “fuck you. i AM good enough. in fact, i’m more than that.” come on, dude…you’re a grown up now and you have all these people behind you telling you that you’re wonderful and i think it’s about time you stopped flapping your god damn lips and listened to them for once.

and i say that all with “great gobs” of respect, because i used to be just like you. i used to think i was unloveable, unfuckable, undateable, unlikeable and every other un(whatever)able too. and i sed to thik that someone else loving me would fix all of that. the only one who can convince you that you’re not any of that is YOU. now get moving, because this TTHM guys seems like a good fella, and i want you to stop writing all these self loathing entries and start talking about how you and the TTHM sat in bed all weekend picking out names for your kids.

I reread that psycho-babble Thomas wrote a few times. He’s a pretty smart guy.
The Tall Handsome Man sounds pretty smart too. He’s also a good listener. The problem is you’re not listening. Sometimes, when someone pays you a compliment it’s ok to just shut up and say “Thank You” and accept that the compliment payor is just in their praise. Every time you do it, it will be that much easier to do the next time and pretty soon it will start to sink in that you are a likeable/lovable individual.

Besides, it’s rude to tell someone they’re wrong all the time. People don’t like it.

Really, try it. The next time he pays you a compliment just shut yer yap and say “Thanks” and think to yourself “He’s right, I do deserve praise.” Can you do that for me?
