Music and personality

sergedan @sergedan (767) • Romania 12 Nov 12

Is there any proof that the music you like the most has any connection with your personality? People have told me I am boring according to the kind of music I like. That was pretty true too!

MelanieMay People have many interests and likes but I don't think one particular area of interest like music can define one's personality. I like many kinds of music myself from pop, to rock, to classical and country. These are all so varied and different so how does...

MelanieMay Well, most people really love to talk and then there are those who really really love to talk to anyone who they think is a willing audience. :) If you don't want him bothering you with stories at certain times, just firmly and politely tell him in a...

I'm quite annoyed looking at the icons for each myLot section (or interest). They are not uniform and they don't seem to belong together. I can't stand it any longer so I uploaded a set of icons for my chosen interests. Now,...

MelanieMay :D You made me smile. Thanks. :) Well, people are different and that should be celebrated. If uniform icons make you happy, then by all means, use them! You may be OC, but hey, that is just a label. Just do whatever makes you feel good.

Ignore is the biggest contempt

Gretchen522 @Gretchen522 (714) • China 12 Nov 12

Who you are can't be decided by others,because you don't live in others' eyes. Those malicious criticism and personal attack can't be stop by one of your piquant counter-attack. It is no worth to waste your life on...

MelanieMay People who criticize and attack others do so because they depend on others to make themselves happy. We cannot control the behavior of others and it is ridiculous to expect them to behave in ways that satisfies us. Indeed, the best way to handle criticisms and...

MelanieMay I do not think it is weird. :) There is no rule that says you have to be a certain age to watch and enjoy an animated movie. Even though Barbie movies are targeting the kids demographic, it does not mean that adults can't enjoy it as well. :)

Can You Laugh at Yourself?

Marja @buenavida (9984) • Sweden 7 Oct 12

I love to make people laugh! It is incredible how much fun I and my friends have had at my black eye.. Maybe you read about how I got it last week. It is getting better now, but I still go out with sunglasses on and look...

MelanieMay It may seem pretty hard at first but I think the trick to it is not to take yourself too seriously. When you can do that, then it becomes easy to laugh at yourself when others do. People who have a great sense of humor are some of the happiest people and that...

MelanieMay People have been predicting the end of the world many many many times and yet we are still here. Humanity has a kind of weird fascination when it comes things like these which does not really serve us any good. All is well and you should not put any stock to...

MelanieMay I think that the simplest and sincerest way is still the best. :) But then again, it can depend upon what your girlfriend likes as well. You can take her to her/your favorite place, or you may recreate your very first date or is there somewhere in particular...

MelanieMay The HTC smartphones are some of the best in the world. You can find an HTC model at the median price (i.e. HTC Wildfire or HTC Desire) and get a lot for your money. Try researching HTC models and read user reviews so that you will be able to determine which is...

MelanieMay Families should be together. :) It is important. A good friend of mine was also in a similar situation and she and her husband have definitely agreed and decided that being apart is no way to start, build and nurture a family. Once they have decided, they put...

life is so unfair....

mamaging @mamaging (12) • Philippines 24 Sep 12

Life is so unfair, I've always been wondering why I am facing a lot of difficulties.. Sometimes I cry in a corner when I don't know what to do. Everyday there is always a trial.

MelanieMay I believe that we create our own reality. All the experiences that we have were attracted by us, whether consciously or unconsciously. And this happens through our thoughts, our perspectives, our outlook in what life has to offer. And the good thing is, we can...

jonabelle @jonabelle (10) • Philippines 24 Sep 12

I do believe in UFO's in fact I saw one when I was a little girl. It was dark and just when I was outside I saw a colorful light rotating, then I suddenly realize that it was a small flying saucer. I wanted to catch it but it was...

MelanieMay The Universe is so vast and almost infinite that that the possibility of life elsewhere is certainly very high. I believe that we are not the only living things in this galaxy, much more the universe. It would be very small-minded of me to think otherwise. As...

Will you marry someone you cheated on you?

sergs_pogi @sergs_pogi (170) • Philippines 24 Sep 12

I watched an episode in Umagang Kay Ganda that raised this question. From the survey made, most people answered no. What is your viewpoint for this matter? What is your reason for that?

cheating partner

3 responses

MelanieMay I think the safest thing would be no. :) But then again, it depends on my state of mind, whether I still feel good about the thought /idea of marrying him or not. If I still have doubts and questions, it's better for me not to.

I just dont understand why women get soooo mad and almost choose to stay mad even after the problem is solved? i feel as a man i let things go easily. or maybe its just me.....smh

MelanieMay I think you are generalizing the "women" part a bit. :) I am a woman and I don't stay mad for long. It does not serve anyone anyway. Most of my friends who are women are also not the type to stay angry for long, especially if the problem has been resolved...

MelanieMay I haven't experienced that myself but I think I would find that funny if it ever does happen to me. :) As it is, it is really no one's business if you are not part of a conversation. Unless, of course, if what you say is really really very important or that...

MelanieMay That's always a tough one but for most of the people I know who were once wearing your shoes, confessing was the only way to go because they didn't want to go on wallowing in "What could have been" modes and regretting it for the rest of their lives. But you...
