Yeah, tell her to put a bag over her head while she is at it lol!!!

I am a waste of space when it comes to doing what I know I should. I went to an assertiveness course once..

was horrified to find out that I am not a mild person (as I had always believed) but a passive-aggressive person. Calm on the outside but seething within. What does this have to do with saying what we want to??

Everything, I suspect...

Heh heh. Can't remember what the advice was, but I think we were told to SAY WHAT WE FELT!!

Didn't work, 10 yrs on and I am still a sap. And still seething inwardly lol.

Back to insomniac speak - the best (or worst) thing about being an insomniac is seeing your name on every conversation on active convos!!

im there...you know i always respect people who speak their mind...but when i do it (not very often)...i just explode and everyone immediately hates me or avoids me! (or they think ive got pmt and disregard it because its so unlike me). lol.

myturntobeposh · 12/10/2005 02:18

Hehe. Unfortunately I only explode at the people who least deserve it i.e. family, not at people I should REALLY be taking it out on.

oh yeah that too...my poor mother gets it mostly...i dont shout at her but i snap without realising it sometimes. i owe her so many flowers.

hope you get some sleep tonight essbee xx
