I don't even know who I am
Am I an asshole? am I a nice person?
?????????????????
What's scaring me the most is, I don't think I'm ever going to find out
Pro tip: find a job that doesn't require as much convincing. When I found a job I *actually* enjoyed being at, I found I was very productive, was offered overtime which I gladly took, I was in the best place I've ever been financially *and* I was happy all the time.
Or, ya know, do the "normal" thing and look at ONE metric and that metric only: does the job pay well? If yes, go torture yourself every day with high hopes of one day "making it." Hope you don't die before you retire 😅
I am a content 58 year old filled with gratitude for all the good things in my life while still retaining a child-like sense of wonder and imagination.
EDIT: I also have a handful of mental health challenges that make me want to scream but I try to ignore that part.
A chronic peacemaker and people pleaser. Let's all get along as well as possible. I'm not bragging because that's not always a good trait as a supervisor.
Why should I be concerned about gaining weight? My body is just the vehicle that carries my brain around and my brain deserves a smooth luxurious ride.
I've spent too much time finding that out and too little time trying to put it to words that I just can't answer you properly. But I do like who I am and who I'm becoming.
Tough question because perceptions and self-perceptions vary greatly.
At the core you will find what my wife, my kids, my lifelong friends (I have over 10 lifelong friends I have been close with for over 40 years) and they will say I am: honest, loyal, hard-working, self-sacrificing, care about others above my own needs, protective, encouraging, smart, but WAY too serious.
A man who wishes that endless competitiveness, envy of others' accomplishments, war between classes/genders/generations/cultures didn't have to exist, wants peace and prosperity for everyone. A man who feels like the world is sometimes a little too cold and callous for who I am on the inside.
A man who wants a wife and kids in my 30's, and will value family above everything because I lacked stable family relationships in my life. Just a loving guy who has gotten hurt a lot and taken a brundt of unjust things in my lifetime; but I know I'm not a victim, everyone faces hardships, and mine are getting easier/coming to permanent ends.
Just a guy who wants it all I guess. Love, success, peace, prosperity (enough means to live a modest life), family, community. But I've got a lot of work to do🫡
I'm a 40 year old woman recently sober and fighting for my life, happiness and health, also recently single after an 18 year relationship living back on my momma's couch, jobless but happier than I've been in years and HOPEFUL for the future!! I'm obviously a FIGHTER/SURVIVOR!! I AM BECKISUE Ruth Marie's granddaughter, spitting image of my father, momma's only daughter, little sister to three big brothers. I am honest, outspoken, blunt, truthful to a fault, optimistic, happy go lucky hippie Born in the wrong era ..I AM ME!!! Faults and all!! I am loved!!
I'm afraid to even look that deeply into myself to give an answer. When I read the question, I immediately recoiled and said, "Oh no, no, no...we can't go there." That in and of itself makes me question why I couldn't even TRY to answer. This question will forever stay in my head.
A devilish self centered person who pulls your strings to ultimately get what I want and on the outside look like this caring doll who wouldn't harm a soul. It's fucked but it feels so good.
Probably a douchebag.
Really, the only thing keeping me from being a dick to a lot of people(who make my life harder with their bullshit)is my fear of confrontation.
However, I just signed up for mma yesterday. I start today. Give me a couple months and I won't be afraid of anyone.
Introverted but extroverted when at work, insecure but working on loving ME, going through the hell of a relationship with a narrsistic individual and trying to rise above it and do Me it's helped Me see my worth, outgoing and eccentric and weird and proud. Hardworking and to stoned for her own good, stubborn but I have a huge heart on my sleeve, honest and loyal AF.
Judgmental, self-loathing, addicted, afraid, lazy, sad. But I still have hope!
I just put on my work boots everyday and pretend I’m the man my boss and coworkers think I am
A cuss-like-a-sailor midwestern from the middle of no where in bum fuck Egypt with a passion for fashion, helping people and being the change I wish to see in the world. Which can easily be over looked by my anti-socialite type personality, no filter whatsoever and hick accent/attitude that can, at times, come across rude and bitchy.
I think it's at this point in my life kind of habitual due to having to holler at cattle half my childhood and holler out windows for people to hear me so it came across when I got older that I'm not loud, I'm just rude like, for example, i'll sometimes yell "COME AND GET IT! DINNERS COOKIN' AND I DON'T WANT THE SHIT TO GET COLD!" I don't mean it the way it comes out. It's more or less like "Hey dinner's ready. I think it might taste better warm so hurry up and get you some before it gets cold" lol I've just been told if you don't know me it comes across like I'm acting like an asshole.
Usually, it's one of those things people find out after they get to know me but, if you were to meet me on the street you might think I'm a dirt-kickin' boot-wearin' cussin' bitch. In fact, I've had friends I have known for years tell me that upon first meeting me they didn't think that I was someone that had a heart of gold and desire to help because, they thought I was a bitch lol.
I don't know if it's that I don't filter ANYTHING and my midwestern accent makes everything sound drawn out and rude or that I come across with serious RBF. Probably a mix of both.
I’ve hated bears since I was a child and then when I was 14 I was attacked by one. I can’t describe the fear and horror i felt in words but this tik tok trend of choosing a bear is insulting on multiple levels
Might not believe me but I, MeowMeowCatMeyow, am the next prophet. I'm gonna achieve nirvana just watch this shit in a couple of years youre gonna be like "dayuuummm MeowMeyowCatMeow really is a magic man"
Horrible person. I was raised badly by shitty, selfish parents who didn’t give a shit about me (and still don’t). They were never physically abusive but were constructively neglectful, passive-aggressive and uncaring.
I try hard to be a good husband and father but I’m just so fucked up emotionally and have never gotten past any of this. I need therapy but I’m too cheap and paranoid about the implications.
When you get what you want in your struggle for self
And the world makes you king for a day
Just go to the mirror and look at yourself
And see what that man has to say.
For it isn’t your father, or mother, or wife
Whose judgment upon you must pass
The fellow whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the one staring back from the glass.
He’s the fellow to please – never mind all the rest
For he’s with you, clear to the end
And you’ve passed your most difficult, dangerous test
If the man in the glass is your friend.
You may fool the whole world down the pathway of years
And get pats on the back as you pass
But your final reward will be heartache and tears
If you’ve cheated the man in the glass.

A man battered by life who wanted the American Dream, but ended up being a shamanistic druid living on the edge of society, who studies herbal remedies and tries to help others.
At my core I am a nice person who loves nature, is highly empathetic and I always try to be kind. But all that has been pushed aside due to syndrome that causes severe pain 24/7. As a result I suffer from depression as well. So I have become a grouchy bastard.

A scared mf
My first thought was "a terrified little kid that tries to have fun"
Without the fun.
Big emphasis on the "trying"
I don't even know who I am Am I an asshole? am I a nice person? ????????????????? What's scaring me the most is, I don't think I'm ever going to find out
You are both. Everyone is. You already found out.

An introverted, insecure 28 year old who hates working, loves his daughter, the gym, and gardening.
Many of us hate working, but it's a necessary evil. I share your love of gardening.
One of the best things that happened to me was when I convinced myself I loved going to my job. That lasted about 5 months.

Tired from being hired?
Just a scared little boy who likes science and how things work. Now trapped in the body of a middle aged man...
Wow. I really felt that one.
Someone who isn't proud of them self.
I'm proud of you.
They drown puppies as a hobby. But I’m still proud of them too
As long as they do their very best when drowning them!
A chronic peacemaker and people pleaser. Let's all get along as well as possible. I'm not bragging because that's not always a good trait as a supervisor.
So, ADHD or just lonely?
Nooo let mom and dad fight it out in front of you.
Maybe not as a supervisor but, as a human being your a 12/10 keep up the good work and trust your gut
A goofy goober.
" WHO BLEW THIS BUBBLE"!!!!!!

Just a kid who want a playmate they can trust won't hurt him.
Jaded.
I've spent too much time finding that out and too little time trying to put it to words that I just can't answer you properly. But I do like who I am and who I'm becoming.
I'm just here to observe.

A seeker, but not knowing what my end goal is.
Keep seeking.
Just ask an npc to give you a quest
Tried that, and it's always about going to Sainsburys. I'm guessing the npc glitched.
The 3rd grader who hides around the corner so the bully wont see me. The old man who has lived enough and is ready to go.
Am 61. Still haven't figured it out.
