So last night I compared myself to a girl I know. This girl is very strong, independent, a “wears the pants” type, and knows what she wants and generally gets it. Some people find her a little abrasive, and she can come across as controlling.

I said that I was similar to her (kinda jokingly) and that’s why we get along so well, and my friends agreed, with this added: “Yeah you are like that, but you’re a lot nicer about it.”  Wow, thanks guys.  I was just kidding, but apparently I am like that. Dammit, I need to work on that! I like to think of myself as a pretty laid back person, but if I'm really like this, I have a very screwed perception of myself.
