I don't have any major issues with expressing or repressing anger. When I'm not happy you will know it.

same question

[tonywalt]

Same answer (seriously)

Interviewer: "Well, lilmarlene - we've looked at your questionnaire and you've answered every question perfectly - your'e the first to do so. So balanced and controlled, it's most impressive".

Lilmarlene: "Thanks" she beamed, "my resolution for self control is like the wars now waged for peace - ya-know-i-mean?"

Interviewer: "hhmmm," excitably scribbling the back of his hand, "we have one more teeny weeny question, and it really determines whether or not you can be released: When you open the drawer after having poured yourself a big bowl of cereal or a bowl of anything really, do you reach for a Small or Large Spoon?"

[lilimarlene]

I am balanced and I am controlled. I'm not negative or self destructive or terribly insecure except for the usual stuff, (like is my a** too big etc). I am very social,outgoing and make friends easily and have a large group of diverse friends. I can be a little shy at times and don't always reveal how I feel, especially where love is concerned. I don't get angry easily either but when I do, my anger is so hot that it’s cold, the exception would be if I catch a bf in a compromising position, then all bets are off. I'm not claiming to be perfect but I don't have any major issues.
oh , and I reach for the small spoon
