i create this discussion on a dare from a friend.. to seek out the oppinions of others who know me well.. who dont know me that much.. and those who dont know me in the slightest.. YOU the masses of the Lot. i can handle compliments.. criticism.. even the vilest of insults.. as long as its HONEST. so come on.. i dare you to tell me yer impressions of me.. what you think, what you feel. and i dare those around me, to start their own discussions asking the same.

I have not interacted with you much before tessah so this is a difficult question to answer on a deeper level! from the limited dealings I have had with you so far, you seem to be quite outspoken, very direct and blunt and not really concerned about rocking the boat in any way. Maybe even a little cynical as well. Probably a tad crass at times too I reckon! But I have never seen you being abusive or rude to anyone and I am assuming that someone would have to push you pretty damn far for you to get this way. If they DID push you far enough, I am sure it would not be pretty. lol. Well there you go. Honest enough for ya?

blunt.. crass. and sometimes downright UNtactful i have been told i lack that little brain filter that says "shoosh, DONT say THAT!" and the words just tumble out of my mouth as soon as they hit my tongue. that flaw can turn quite comical at times, specially when face to face, as i try to scramble to catch and stuff the words back into my mouth. LOL thanx for yer words here, and i hope we get the opportunity to interact more in the future

Hi Tessa, Over the period of time I have known you on the lot I have seen you to be so honest it has been detrimental to you in some discussions because others can't handle the truth. If you see an injustice you just have to say something. Sometimes I am confused about certain issues so feel I cannot respond. You would kill to protect your family and loved ones as you protect them with a vengence. You are a very caring and loving person with a great sense of humour and a true friend but if crossed very volitile and angry but if mistaken humble and willing to apologise. These are just my observations. I would also like to add that you are full of fun and mischief too and to thank you for having been then when I have needed help too. Huggles. Ellie :D

From what I know from the time I have spent chatting to you, I know you to be brutally honest. I mean I still remember the first discussion of mine that you ever answered and you told me that I was selfish and greedy!! That was one about sharing a box of chocs I had, I was absolutely gobsmacked and decided immediately that I was not going to like you!! But, You kept popping up in my discussions and I would notice you in others and I read what you were putting and I realised that you were not being nasty you were just being honest!! I liked that, because not many people do it, I used to do it when I had friends I would tell them straight what I thought whether they liked it or not. That is probably why I have no friends where I live lmao!!!! I get the impression of you as being a good person but one not to take crap off anyone but also the kind of person to not see others taking crap, you dont sugar coat anything. I get the impression that you are strong and that in an argument you would win hands down and wipe the floor in words with anyone that tried to start on you. I think you are friendly but do not go out of your way to push your friendship on anyone if they want you they know where you are. Well, thats what I think anyway, you are someone who I have grown very fond of on here over time. xx

Trust me I will never forget the chocolate one! And I did not decide to hate you because hate is a very strong word and only reserved for certain people, I had just decided that I was not going to like you because as they say "truth hurts" lol and it did!!!! It is all about getting to know someone, I usually know within a first convo if I like someone or not, I pick up on certain things, with you it was hard as your vibes can be mixed and hard to pick up on!!!xxxx

"Oh Simon, you take care of me... you always take care of me.... MY TURN" I figured I'd give you a few days to think I wasn't going to respond to this and give you a moment to breath easy. I've read over all of the others from your friends, acquaintances, and even total strangers. I figured I'd be the icing on the cake since, I live with you! Let me begin by defining the difference between a good person and a bad person. To make this easier, I will use the example of our outlook on life as a comparison. A group of people who view the glass as half full would describe you as a pessimist and me an optimist. You prepare for the worst, and I hope for the best (this works for us very well by the way). They view me as the better person because I have the positive outlook on things. A group of people who view the glass as half empty would say otherwise. In their eyes, you are a realist, and I am an idealist. THEY view you as the better person because you don't allow for surprises in our life to drop us on our knees. Erego, outsiders, including myself, cannot tell you whether or not you are a good person. Only you know your true motives, and only you have to live with those choices. With that being said, I will describe you in my eyes, for those are the only eyes (other than your own) that matter to me when it comes to you. Your motives are always to make the situation better. You very rarely try to escalate issues to make them worse, and when you do, it's usually because you are trying to show another that they are making a mistake or have an unhealthy spirit in some way. In my eyes you will always be a good person. You are very sensual and sexy. Downright HAWT if you need me to go on. You love like there is no limit, and you feel without boundaries. You are absolutely honest to anyone you care about, and most of those you don't. This causes you to get alot of flack about being uncaring, but only I see the woman who falls apart when you sacrifice your feelings for someone to allow them to be able to improve their life. Always remember, you are doing the right thing. The reason people get mad, or seem to hate you when you do this is because they are selfish. They only see what you are saying to them, they do not bother to see why, or even look to realize you are right. You are a realist. You see problems before they arise, prepare for them in case they do come to pass, and do work like a mule to make sure they don't. I have less stress in my life because you have eliminated so many problems that I will never know could have been. You keep my optimism in check so that I do not lose my footing. You are an analyst. You can size any issue up and down and figure out all possible outcomes before they even have a chance to think they can exist. This gives you the ability to never speak what you do not mean and keeps my spontanaity from ruining me or even getting myself killed. So in essence you could say you've saved my life more times than you originally thought. You are my other half, in every way. We are both on extreme opposites of the field. Together we are balanced, and we learn from each other. We are both able to become better, more well rounded people, because we are with each other. In closing, there is nobody else for me, you make me perfect, and you are perfect for me, I love you.

wow.. i had to keep stopping reading this cause from the get go with the quote you chose to start off on, ive been sitting here tearing up so bad i couldnt see the damned screen. and again, while trying to respond to it, trying to reread yer words, you have me weeping. neither of us are the sappy sentimental romantic type. i mean crist, our pet names for each other are "jackass" and "c*nt". we dont spend time with the outpourings of how do i love thee, let me count the ways. yer words here.. have blown me away. i love you so very much. thank you feels rather.. inadequate

now that you posted just a so complex question of impression of yer friends who you dont know at all,that indicates you are a person who is thinking of self and your present self-questioning is a respons to something happend to you.parhaps that thing is so bad and frustrated and i just hope you can tell us,not dismay yourself and question self.sharing with others can help you release your burden. the above is for the care to you, if it is not true just forget it.

Well I cant make a judgement on someone I dont know, and in my off line life I try not to judge people instead I like to give people the benefit of the doubt and not make snap judgements on anyone.

I feel you are brave and interesting posting this up. I really would love to tell a few (just a few) on here what I really do think of them sometimes but I would not have the guts to do so. I do not know you well, but I like honest people who tell it exactly how it is, and I think you are one of those people and it's a good thing to be like that.

from what I'm getting from this post is your not into what other people think of you. because of this I'm not sure why you would post this other then a dare like you said. I really don't know you and I've never seen your discussions before. I think I might take this up though to see what others can tell about me from my posts.

Well I am one of those that don't know you in the slightest but I have to say that because you posted this discussion that you have gumption. What I mean by that is that I like the fact that you aren't afraid of a little criticism.

im relatively unique.. and no, with most things i dont have much difficulty in expressing myself. yer thoughts are taken positively.. im taking any and all, including the criticisms, in a positive manner, and quite frankly, expected more negative feedback than im getting as i have a tendency to rub folks the wrong way. ever the learner.. i like knowing where my flaws lie, and how i can improve my own self where necessary. its a perfectionist obsession, which is also a flaw.. but i like that one. *nod*

Well one that doesn't know you in the slightest I don't know how I could have an opinion although i guess I admire you for asking and as you say you can handle anything it seems, I hope some of your friends give their opinions as though would know pretty well.

Wow this is probably the most unique discussion I have ever responded to. Granted I don’t know what to say since I am only just getting to know you but by virtue of the fact that you started a discussion such as this means that you may be an adventurous person. Also you are straight laced person expecting honesty from others and not afraid to be honest with others come what may. You would be the person seeing your friend wearing mismatched clothes and not tell her .So I believe you are honest .Don’t think I will take you up on that offer to start my own discussion

Since I do not know you much, I cannot give any opinion about you; giving an opinion would be disrespectful on my part. One thing I cannot understand however, is why you are asking for the opinion. I am sure my opinion will not make any difference in your life. I am sure you know very well who and what you are and so, my opinion is unimportant.
