I’m not even good at that stuff when it doesn’t involve me. That’s what’s so scary. I’m completely oblivious.

But lots of practice remaining neutral, eh? That must be a helpful skill. I think I’d find that more difficult than actually hiding my feelings though.

Oh, and I didn’t mean neutral expressions, I meant actual neutrality

It’s been *years* since I watched that movie, so I can’t remember if I picked up on the Scotty/Dirk thing but I’m usually pretty good at that stuff, *except* when it comes to me. Probably half the reason I think men are such jerks (except you dear is because the only ones I notice are the ones who are right in my face, jumping up and down and yelling that they want to get in my pants. As for my own feelings, I keep them pretty well hidden. Lots of practice remaining neutral when interested in people that relationships precluded any goings on with. It probably is a worthwhile skill.

It’s a dead give away when you force your expressions to be neutral.

Time has sped by and I’ve spent the better part of the last hour reading back through the last two month’s posts. I can’t believe it has been that long since my last visit. You’ve had a very difficult patch these last two months and I’m glad you have friends that care enough to keep you from becomming too much of a hermit. Once again your writing has moved me and your photography continues to blow me away. I hope November returns you to that blissful state of contentment you had found in August. And a great choice for the photography contest.

@loo - There’s a difference between being proud of your choices/nature/instincts, and putting yourself out there at the risk of humiliation through non-reciprocation.

@Jenn - I was hoping you wouldn’t find out in such an inappropriate way, but I had to say it for the point of the post. Now I’m a little embarrassed.

Aw, really? No, I just thought for awhile that I annoyed you. (Trust me, it is well-known that I am the most oblivious person on the planet.)

why the need to hide it?

Be proud of your choices, of your nature, of your instincts.

i think you’re dreamy… maybe i should hide it better, might have more allure. hmm *wink*
