I am very black and white..iin?

Dealing with others' differences in a tactful and mature way; practicing tolerance. These things will bring you more inner peace. It is ok to hold yourself to those standards, but how others conduct their lives is really not your business. You will feel a great release when you just let that go and just steer your own life course. Good luck.

Everybody holds everyone else to their own morals, so I think you are normal there. However, your black and white/all-or-nothing thinking isn't very normal and probably makes you very unpleasant to be around (as you stated).

Do you care that your expectations bother or hurt other people? If you don't, then continue on being the way you are.

If you are talking about war it always changes people. The thing military does is get you squared off, orderly and prepared for battle. War itself is what I think messes up people. Any military person will tell you this too. However war is sadly not always avoidable.

Also you could make a point without being a dick. So like if someone does not believe what you do saying "Wow your religion is bull shit. You are a complete moron" its going to piss people off. You have to have some tact. The only people who like cheaters are cheaters.

I agree with most everything you believe but if people want to destroy themselves that is the persons choice and we can not really do much about it. I like tatoos since they are artwork but I would never get one.

I get annoyed with the following (Furies, paedophiles ,and extremely prejudice/racist people,Self destructive irrational teenagers) I agree with most everything you stated. Its rude to push your beliefs on others though. If you just do not like these kind of people do not hang out with them. If you hate drinking do not try to make friends at a bar. If the person is not bothering you or others let them be. Actually I have known some furies but I think the idea of having sex with animals is disgusting.

High morals won't save your soul from hell. There is a free gift of salvation when you believe Jesus died on a cross for your sin. The Bible says " there is none righteous, no not one. There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh God." Romans 3:10 that's why God had to find a way to reconcile us to himself. God is holy, we are dirty sinners. So Jesus, the son of God, who is the only one that lived a perfect life, died for our sins. So now when you believe on Jesus, God will forgive your sin, and accept you to himself. Don't gamble with your soul. NO man knows for certain what happens when you die.

What I have found over the years is that people judge according to their own standards. Meaning that if you are open and honest with the best of intentions, a gossip with malicious intent will assume you to have the same motive as themselves. I have since learned to keep council with few trusted friends and the rest are mere acquaintances. Let them learn by your example

I can relate. I'm very different from you on certain points but similar on others. I'm a practicing Catholic and I do drink on occasion. I don't smoke anymore and I have pretty liberal ideas regarding marijuana. I'm pro military but don't support the current situation in the middle east. I wish we could just find a new fuel source and be done with it. I don't care for too many tattoos and extreme piercings are gross in my book. Needless to say I abhor lying, cheating, stealing and adultery among other things. I try my best to live by my morals.

Last year I lost three female friends because I found one of them morally objectionable. The female in question slept with a married man and had zero remorse. Instead she became desperately obsessed with him and acted like I ought have compassion for her gross behavior. All that selfish entitlement made me nearly lose my mind and vomit because up until then I really liked her. When I confronted her about everything she and the other two decided I was this mean and judgmental person. I'm actually better off without the three of them but the whole experience was really an ordeal for me and even when it was over I had a lot of emotional fallout. Now I'm much more wary about who I befriend and I intend on taking my time to get to know people so hopefully I won't have more similar experiences. If I have any advice for you regarding the disgust you feel it would be to take your time to really get to know people before you get too close to them. Guard your heart!

If you would have said that you were black and white and read all over, I would have thought you were a newspaper.

I know a lot of ppl like that. Maybe you should try to do more fun things and things that make you happy,not necessarily the things that you believe you "SHOULD" do but what you "WANT" to do. It may help you stop caring so much about other ppls actions because you enjoy yours so much.

Are you Al Jolson?

I know how you think personaly I choose to
never lie, never cheat, be just and composionate and to have the courage to live everyday ''According'' to my standars.

So I get very desapointed and at some point almost disgusted when I'm on this site....But I tell myself that it might be me that is living in a too strict way.

But I try to not force people on my standars but on the ''other way around'' a lot of people I know ask me how I can live like this in the crooked world we live in. I've been told I'm marriage material ( ?)

One day I hope I could find someone that think like me.

thts rascist & i dislike that you can't act black or say you are black if you are white BLACK people are humans they act a certain way to defend themseleves & they take charge since us WHITE people ridiculed & tormented their humanity since the beggining so to be your a ignorant son of a bitch

i have once or twice been on the highly strict standards. realizing nobody's perfect including me, i started to consider everybody has his/her own value unless it causes problems in relationships. TAKE IT EASY :D

BUT...it's wonderful that you yourself have morals. Be proud but also be proud of others for being different.

Diversity makes the world beautiful. I'd try to jump down off that high horse you're on. Enjoy life.

Are you a Virgo because you sound like me a lot...lol

Again, MercedesBenz with another good comment!

Just keep telling yourself every time you find yourself irritated by other people's stupidity and ill manners: "Everybody is doing the best they can. Nobody is perfect, not even me."

The sad part is I have never told anyone of my objections. I am kind to most...only the people that manage to get close to me know of some of my standards.

I do care that they bother others, that's why I wanted to hear about others and how they deal with it.
