arystine Hello Bounce. Thanks for the response, and for the male point of view. :) Yes, I have been hearing that a lot from many guys, it is their way of de-stressing. So I guess beer really has a way of relieving men?

I am seething mad. I had an encounter with one of the most egotistic, conceited, and arrogant person. Ever! What's killing me is that I can't even voice out what I think of him because he is my in-law. Now, I am calming myself....

arystine Hello Bounce. Actually, it is hard to even try to understand these kind of people. Thank God I have never seen him since that night that he pissed me off (to the highest level). I feel sorry for him. :p Thanks for the response. :)

arystine Thanks for the response Bounce. Yes, it has been different ever since I came to this resolution. It became a constant reminder for me to love myself more, to be more assertive when it comes to ME. I do not deserve to be taken advantage of. Have a good day!

arystine Thank you so much for the response. You don't know how your words made me feel better. From now on, I vow to keep some commitment to myself. And not to allow others to control me. I will not care what they say. I cannot tolerate being taken for granted.
