Is this idea passe? Is it something nice people say to each other, but don't really mean it?
I've had people come and go from my life and sometimes I wonder how well they really knew me to begin with. It's the artificial outside bullcrap that people seem to focus on. Sometimes I wonder if I'm worth liking at all for who I really am, or should I just keep that locked up inside and make someone dig? What if nobody wants to dig for that?
I try to be a good person - a 'nice' person.. but what does that really get anyone, anyway? People often times will see what they want and disregard the rest. I know I'm not good or even nice all the time. I'm sometimes hard to get along with, demanding and sometimes just irritating as hell. I know this. When do I get to the point that someone sees this 'ugly' part of my personality and will like me anyway?
I know myself pretty well... the good, the bad and the ugly. I wish people would take the time to get to know me - all of that stuff that makes up "me". I feel sometimes that I don't really get to know others as much as I think I do.
I'm going to try harder to get to know people.... that's the only resolution I can come up with that I think is doable.
