guess the recruitment drive worked..

And yes, I do like to be complimented on my looks.  I also like to be complimented on my intelligence, wit, talents, kindness and any other good qualities.

privately, are you insecure about any of these qualities?
or are you extremely confident about all of them?

[McGiver]

LOL

Do you really think I'm that stupid with the attitude of people on here LOL

Give me a break!

no i don't think your that stupid.

i think you forgot to take your anti depressants or are extremely drunk right now.

[Calandale]

but, if i remember correctly, wasn't she all flirty with you last time she graced us with her presence, fawning over you and saying that you were pretty.

Yes, I did that because it amused me to see how he so LOVES attention

Even off someone who hated his guts all along.....

This combination has me convinced. If this is anything like it looks like (whether this is a lie or not), you are a terribly bitter person. You should switch from taking it out on others, and move towards a healthier view and seek to bring down the whole of reality. Don't waste your passion on mere mortals.

As to any thought of 'sucking up' to Peter: I can't see how it applies to me. He's pretty, no doubt. Not my taste, but whatever. But if anything, I tend to be harsher to those that I find attractive (in any way) than to those that I don't; no logic here, just one of my defenses against that which may harm me.

And yes, I do like to be complimented on my looks.  I also like to be complimented on my intelligence, wit, talents, kindness and any other good qualities.

Well, that's very modest.

I'm insecure about all of them, so I strive to improve them.

No, I'm not unduly depressed or drunk

Why would I want to put my photo on a site that is clearly so judgmental on looks?

I know my forte and it's my use of the English language, not how I look

People should play to their strengths  

[esme456]

Looks are God-given and not a skill

The ability to keep a thread running as long as this one is a skill

I don't think you have it Peter...

[Calandale]

That's a skill Richard has too....

[esme456]

The whole of Life is bitter

I am merely being honest about it instead of resorting to self-deception to mask the knowedge as
others do

I think I am only bitter on this topic anyway, I have no resentment towards others beign more talented, more intelligent, more anything else really

[esme456]

I've seen Richard's 'bit's and I will not be visiting a thread with them on anytime soon!

That is graphicness taken to the extreme!

I do not try to drum up interest by cheap displays of skin - my intellect is my only 'tool'

To be honest, you're boring me now.  Your attacks are empty and barely worth defending against, and I have better things to do with my time than spend all night on this thread.  Say something of merit and you might regain my attention.

Is that why you're still on here at 4.40am in the morning!

I'm eternally thankful that you resent me only for my looks, and not for my superior abilities in a discussion and my healthier psyche.

I'm here because of the way my sleep schedule happens to lie at the moment; not because your arguments have been so fascinating that I've stayed up just to rebut them.

Pity. Was hoping that you had promise.

[esme456]

You're right in much of what you say Peter

I hate myself sometimes, not even  because of what people might think of how I look
so much as not beign able to live up to the stupid standards I demand of myself and others

Im trying to be better than other people a lot of the time to try and make myself feel better
then I just get fed up of even trying as it's too hard and want to just be nasty cos of other peopels' nastiness
and cos others seem much better at being consistently nice

Everything's too hard to sustain for any length of time

Im always aiming for the moral high ground and then getting incensed when other people are continually trying to knock me off it

I wasn't drunk or depressed yeterday but had eaten wheat and a lot of sugar - evidently a very bad combination for me!

I have recently started a new relationship and feel a lot of pressure to make it work and it's driving me funny!

Like all the effort of maintaining a good act makes me want to be nasty underneath

I admire your consistency Peter and not dropping to my level
