What kind of dame writes a thing like this?
I'M A HANDFUL! Unfortunately most women won't repost this. I'm strong-willed, funny, independent, and outspoken, I make mistakes, I am sometimes out of control and at times hard to handle—but if you can't handle me at my worst then you sure don't deserve me at my best.
But I do deserve you at your worst? Come off it, Madam.
Maybe it’s not that you can’t handle her at her worst but rather that you just wouldn’t want to.
Maybe it’s that I don’t care. She needs to get over herself.
2 things I might toss out here for consideration:
1) I don’t know this person, so I’m not sure how she uses her FB page, however, I use mine ONLY for personal interactions with people I know well and consider personal friends. Because of that I say things that I wouldn’t say anywhere else in the online world, and I don’t worry about whether I sound cool, professional or non-dramatic. I have decided that for me, Facebook will be the one online place – because I keep everything on there limited to the small number of friends I have – where I can let my hair down so-to-speak, and be as silly as I feel like. Before you go too far down the judging route, you might consider what purpose Facebook serves for this individual.
2) I guess I’m the only one who noticed that the description above there, which you are holding up for fun-poking could, with the exception of the word “woman” be used to describe YOU, David! [Also, it totally describes ME, so I am NOT judging, I’m just sayin’] Glass houses, pal!
😉
Kristen, it could be used to describe all of us, I suppose. Even more reason it should have gone without saying.
The VERY self-indulgent logic might be along the lines of merit: if you can’t manage the rough spots then you don’t deserve the payoffs. A defensive assertion of self-esteem, to be sure.
