    From my mom:
    - If you're going to talk *kitten* about someone be honest enough to admit to it if they confront you over it. Otherwise don't say it.

    From my best friend:
    - You can catch more flies with honey.

    Not that I want to catch flies, but I used to be such a little b!tch to people I didn't know (for various reasons). She said "He might be an ugly guy who's hitting on you right now, but you never know whose help you're going to need some day." I didn't take that advice right away 'cause we were like 18 then. But not too long after that, I started to be cool with everyone I meet and just be real with people, treating them like they're human instead of something I have the displeasure of dealing with. So I find that most of my interactions with people are regularly pleasant (not in the fake way) and that people are very willing to help me out when I need them to - small or large favors. Most people like me.

    I think her 18 year-old advice was the best I ever received. I told her about this the other night. The waiter gave me us several free drinks. :bigsmile:

    Best summed up by 'don't burn your bridges'? Lol

    Nope, not exactly. It fits in the same theme, though.

    Marriage only works if you both feel like you're giving more than 100%.

    My best friend always told me not to have sex with somebody if they didn't have books in their house.

    Love that one! It's an old John Waters quote.

    ~You can not control someones actions but you can control your reactions,

    You can't control other's actions, you can only control your own reactions. (same thing) ---and VERY true.

    I believe that's called rape.

    A woman on a greyhound bus told me "you're young and travelling alone, you should carry a knife." Yes, ma'am.

    Marriage advice: If you are married to a good hearted person , then assume they have the very best of intentions.
    Be each others best cheerleaders.

    Mom advice: you are more stubborn than a toddler! (Re: Sleep problems)

    It is better to stay single than wish you were. (Wish I heard that as a teen.)

    From my mom: "if a guy tries to touch you or grab you in school, kick him where it counts, and we will deal with the teachers."
    It was very liberating to know I could hurt someone if they deserved it, and have support.

    No one can make you feel inferior without your consent (Eleanor Roosevelt)

    No matter how slow you're going, you're still lapping everyone on the couch

    If you want it, you'll find a way. If you don't, you'll find an excuse.

    Why are abs so yummy? Because they're made in the kitchen.


    ...There's nothing I can do to help you if you don't start taking care of yourself. Otherwise, you'll be dead before you're 30...
    ^^^That one's from my doctor. To me. Last year. I'm turning 24 this month.
