everyone in your circles? Do you accept people that are different from you or Do you have to hang with people that are like minded? I'm only asking because I have met many people in my life and I'm of the opinion that you accept people as they are and hope they will accept me as I am. I mean I'm not here to hurt anyone just be myself but I have some friends that when we dont agree on a subject she wont talk to me for the longest time. I guess I just dont get it. I let her be her and I agree to disagree but i guess not everyone is like me .... smilin .... How bout you?

I have always known I was different. I have always known there was something about me that made me stand out. Sometimes I wonder if I am the only person alive with a beating heart, sometimes nobody else seems to make any sense at all. I prefer to be alone most of the time, though I do enjoy being around people I really like. I don't really care what a person does to me because I generally only care what I think of something, but I do want to make other people happy when I can. I don't judge people and I try to get along with them, but I am afraid to be the first to talk to someone.

Im not that different from people around me. Of course everybody has different personalitys which makes them different from others. And i hang around all kinds of people. I mean of course i have best friends and really close friends but im always friendly to everyone in my highschool and everyones always friendly to me. I dont dress much differently then others either, i got the sorta skater image ;p ive been skating for 7 years. And i usually buy the really expensive name brand clothes. Not because everybody likes it and it, but because its just me. Its my style. So bottom line, other than my personality im not that much different from others around me.
