Ok, so there's this young whipper-snapper at work (my pt job) who can drive me INSANE! But the thing is, he reminds me of myself, fresh out of high school: thinks that the person who can win the arguement has the "correct" viewpoint,
aggressively stands up for his friends (who are 20) when unneccessary (they're 20!), hates people who generalize about homosexuals yet is verbally prejudiced againt arabs, thinks that he has discovered the "truths" to life and will lecture you on how you should do things, etc. There are days when I just want to ring his neck, but then I realize, a.) he won't listen, b.) I used to be the same way... ever happen to you?

Wow, just think what this says about me and my self-esteem!

<font color="cyan">Yeah, my ex girlfriend.

She was very clever, gorgeous, but she knew it. And when we broke up, she tried to get me back and I played about dodging this and that, and we either did or we didnt. But then, when I tried to get back, she did the exact same. We were very similar in mind, and we went through a period of hating each other! Well, we talk at the moment, but....</font>

My dad reminds me of myself when I was younger.. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Really though, I'm too young to compare! :D

i have my own personal philosophy related about that... actually science as well

all of you know that a
positive and a negative attract
and
both positive and positive or negative - negative repel

SOMETIMES and i repeat that SOMETIMES,
people who have the same chractarisitcs as you or just similar can pretty turn off for you simply because you guys are exactly the same.

I completely agree with you, Hark. All of the girls that I dated that were like me, we split pretty quickly.

My dad. DON'T get me started.

As a general rule, anyone i meet or bump into who appears to be about the the same age and, i percieve, 'thinks' like me instantly falls into the disliked category. I can't stand to be reminded of myself.

Nope.

Same...

You see I have this bunch of friends I go out with, and I am always the clown, I tell jokes, I make funny things and such...But then whenever someone else acts like me I m saying to myself : "what a tard, he thinks he is funny or what, i hate guys like that...", and then after 2 secs of intense thinking : "oh shit...he is just like me in fact". Go figure :D
