Time to get this off my chest so I can move on! A little back ground info for all the "Haters" and the general I'm just bored so I guess I'll read this... Not liking me because I happen to be half attractive is The Same as making fun of a person with Down syndrome or mental retardation. Agree or disagree I Don't Care!! I was one of the lucky people to be born with Bi-Polar Disorder. It was genetically past to me from my daddy. With this "different wiring of the brain" comes with pros and cons. Cons: Major internal struggles, total personality changes sometimes as frequently as a few times a day, over the top highs and lows, dysfunctional home life. Needless to say this has always made me different, a strange very non popular introverted kid, hard to date/marry as an adult. I'm 44 with only 3 but totally awesome men throughout my life. Cons: A certain level of above average intelligence, along with personality changes comes with multiple interest, not being popular gave me the perfect excuse to throw myself into my studies an even today continuing to soak up knew knowledge fairly quickly. I learned to use my highs constructively instead of turning to alcohol or drugs like most with this disorder. 85 to 90% of my family members are very over weight, alcoholics, dysfunctional an I TOTALLY LOVE THE SHIT OUT OF ALL OF THEM!!! God Blessed Me with the realization almost at birth that I was different, the want to learn more about why I was different and to manage it without medication. I HIT THE GYM A SHIT TON!!! So if people want to dislike me for purely shallow reasons I have this to say: I have over come many obstacles with your mean help so I thank you! I'm half attractive cause I spend many hours at the gym because it calms my inner daily demons, not for personal vanity!!! The people I surround myself with Love Me For Me!! I know that because I'm not easy to love and surface beauty doesn't mean shit long term. God did make me an I am Uniquely and Wonderfully Made!

Before I could even hope to do justice to your sharing post, I just want to know if you are referring in any way to the off hand comment I made which referred to you in a general way as "a pretty new girl"? Because if you are, I'd be glad to discuss it with you. I clearly did not mean to "trigger" you.

Think that cruise was to long 😂 I need some rock shop therapy!

Good on ya for appreciating and accepting your uniqueness. Pretty much a broken toy myself with a big ole helping of OCD, mild speech impediment and a touch of Asperger's. One comes to enjoy being a bit different. ( My wife often calls it being annoying). Regular folks can be so......well, regular. And playing with horses and hiking, the gym, and licking a lot of rocks really are therapeutic. Got to get me in some sawing time though. That's like a day of opening presents and is really uplifting....Mel

Probably got it from me but my Bi-crazy just covers it haha I'm used to being called a gammet of words. Con says God had to make me pretty to off-set my mouth 🙊🙈🙄 but that man loves me an I him!! I'm going to get in some sawing time soon!! Not to mention a group Rockhounding trip this weekend, new slabs to cab and wrap or set in silver... all I do in the solitude of my little shop an it's all therapy!! But I gotta admit my bestest friends are always unique too

Well when we "VanDykes" have a family reunion,people leave town,because they think and know we are who we are and live life with all it can bring....We have them all,a very nice blend of crazy,boozers,dopers,Bi-Polar Disorder,even us with PTSD !! I wouldn't trade my family or friends for any amount of cash.... We are all unique in this world,in our own ways,I love it that way!! As for bailing you out,how could I ,because I will probably be in the next cell to yours,making the guards crazy!!!! LMAO
PS: The haters will hate,no matter what! Smile at them,it makes them nervous and they wonder what your up to....LOL
