"I'm like some wayward comet trapped in her gravitational pull" - I love that image. Well said, Webgoji.
I'd like to start of with "Hi, I'm Lexa", but that's not my real name. It's the name i wanted to use for my future daughter, but I found another name i like a lot more.
However, I'll try my best to describe the person behind this name as honestly as I can.
When I think of myself, the first thing that comes to mind is a phrase I've been told too often- "you work too hard" It's reached a point where that phrase seems more like a bad thing rather than a good one.
I'm very much of a loner, almost a recluse. It's not social anxiety, no. I just prefer to be alone with my thoughts under a tree somewhere, rather than in a crowd of people.
In person, I tend not to talk much, but over the phone or pc, I can talk your ears off. Hehe.
I try to help out wherever I can, how ever I can. I'm better at listening to problems than at giving advice, but that hasn't stopped me from trying.
I'm one of those people who don't get angry often. I sort of soak up everything like a sponge, let things slide, until reach a point where I have taken all I can, and if I'm triggered then,Heaven have mercy on the cause of my anger.
My faults:
I trust too easily.
I'm very hard-headed, especially when it comes to accepting help. I prefer to do things on my own, otherwise, it somehow seems like a weakness in my eyes if I complete a task with the help of another. This is ten times worse when I am in a position where I have to ask for the help of a man.
Likes and dislikes:
I love children, animals and books.
I like drawing, reading, all things medieval from food to warfare, attempting to write a novel, and attempting crosswords.
family:
I love my dog. She's the apple of my eye. I love my parents, however I'm not as close to my mother as I would like to be.
values:
I value honesty.-the hard truth is better than a pretty lie.
I also value punctuality. I'll admit, I'm a bit too strict when it comes to this one.
Kindness and patience are important, too.
And give me a rainy day over a sunny one any time

.
That's basically me... my alters are another story.
Thank you for this thread, Webgoji. By typing out a response here, I realised a few things about myself
