How about this problem?
Okay you attract people, flirting is easy but you get bored, easily distracted, and just plain turned off by the people that refuse to take a hint
Are you sure you know what you want are your standards too high or too low?
Do you spend too much time focused around one particular area of your life?
Are you happy with you?
Can you shrug off break ups or does it feel like the world is ending?

My ideal relationship is one where I have freedom, the thought of a confining relationship just isn't for me.
As for the up and down question, I am bi-polar, so when I'm not on my medication, if I have a bad day, I just loose it, and when I'm manic I'm entirely too happy (which is real, don't let anyone fool you), and I'm fill of energy and start too many projects, and soon I'm swamped!
Sometimes I'm alright with me, but sometimes I look in the mirror and I'm just unhappy with me. I like my personality, I love to be kind, and I never try to change people, since it's not my place.
Standards, well. It depends on the personality.

I never did really get the whole flirting thing (I'm oblivious to it, if/when it happens), but I do historically tend to get bored in relationships rather quickly. Part of that is because I've had a tendency to get involved with one-dimensional people, part of it is because they tend to be dishonest about what they want out of the relationship.


Are you sure you know what you want are your standards too high or too low?


I know what I want; and perhaps that IS too high of a standard because, apparently, what I want doesn't exist.


Do you spend too much time focused around one particular area of your life?


Yes.


Are you happy with you?


For the most part. I am not particularly happy with my environment, but I'll do something about that when the opportunity arises.


Can you shrug off break ups or does it feel like the world is ending?


I go into relationships expecting, and sometimes even planning for, a breakup. I know, going in, that there is going to be a point where I want nothing more than to get out of the entanglement.

You might ask: Then, why bother? I can't really answer that. I don't particularly want to be alone for the rest of my life, but haven't found anyone who was ultimately more appealing than being alone.

What's flirting?


Are you sure you know what you want are your standards too high or too low?


Yes, and it apeears that my standards are too high, but I think they're pretty low actually.


Do you spend too much time focused around one particular area of your life?


Maybe


Are you happy with you?


No, and I don't see it ever happening.


Can you shrug off break ups or does it feel like the world is ending?


It feels like the worlds is ending for about 1/2 a second, then I move on.

It happens, but it's usually mutual. Also, I'm a little clueless, and it takes a while for me to figure out that someone is actually into me. Haha, that may be some of the problem.

Are you sure you know what you want are your standards too high or too low?

My standards are where they need to be, I believe.

Do you spend too much time focused around one particular area of your life?

No, I don't think so.

Are you happy with you?

Yes, 90% of the time.

Can you shrug off break ups or does it feel like the world is ending?


It's hard at first, but yeah...I'm able to shrug off a break up.

....so you want to hook someone, be entertained by them and then expect them to get your secret code for f *ck off..?

Are you sure you know what you want are your standards too high or too low?
i KNOW exactly what I want in every aspect of my life.

Standards...Who decided the benchmark to what is too high or too low?...my standards are perfect...for me.

Do you spend too much time focused around one particular area of your life?

yes...this life....I only have this one, right now, so it is my single focus.:wink:

Are you happy with you?

Yes

Like it is a light summer shower...thats how easy it is to shrug off...

I thought it was just a reference to Alanis' "21 Things I Want In A Lover."

When I think about that song and actually try to make a list of the qualities I look for in potential partners, I keep ending up with the list of the qualities I'd like for other people to see in me. Which means that I instinctively end up looking for someone a bit like myself. Unfortunately, experience has taught me that the things that I think I want and the things that are actually best for me or that I actually need in any given situation, more often than not end up being two very different things.
