I don't like people thinking highly of me.
I'm a troubled individual with a bad temper. I may not display it in public but under the right conditions, behind closed doors, I can be the biggest asshole to walk the Earth. I have, in the past few years, been able to keep from hurting others and throwing things, but a temper is a temper, regardless.

I don't like people thinking highly of me because I'm not a person to be thought highly of. I have my own set of issues. IIN?

    When people put you on a pedestal, they are setting you up for a fall. No one is perfect.

      Well that was uh... That wasn't really the point that I was trying to make but uh... I wasn't advocating that I be seen as a total piece of shit.
      Ok I guess. Thanks for the response?

    Well sure it's normal. That's a lot of pressure to live up to, especially if you don't want to disappoint people. Being put up on a pedastal is unfair and challenging. And climbing down is tricky, you usually fall. But it happens. The best we can do is to try and land with some grace. And sometimes it's covered in ivy and it snags our foot on the way down. So you just dangle, wondering what the hell do you do next. You sure as hell don't want back up, but you can't get down either. Hmmm...if only you knew how to cut those bonds. I dont , sorry. But if it helps, I'll call you an asshole anytime you want.

    Everyone has a temper, everyone gets angry from time to time.

    Try focusing on the person everyone loves.

    see if you can get that personality to flourish, remember, you're never going to be perfect.

    maybe you're putting the pressure on yourself.

    If people think highly of you than just accept it. So you have a temper - big. fuckin'. whoop.

    I don't know you so I can't speak for them, but if somebodies admire you then they obviously have their own personal reasons for it. Even if you don't think you're so great, other people sound to! It's normal for you to not want people to think highly of you, though. :]

    You don't sound like a bad person from this post though, actually I kind of like what little of you I could derive from this post. :B

    Maybe you should ask yourself if these people are telling you this out of honesty or because they are just too big of pussies to tell you that youre a boring cunt. do you have a lot of money? if you do, id be willing to bet however much you have in your bank account that they are kissing ass for cash.

    We are all our own worst critics! For example, I look at myself and can't see on reason why a girl would be attracted to me. This doesn't mean that I shun the attention of girls, I just don't expect it.

    If people think highly of you, the it sounds like you are making great strides in controlling your anger! Let their praise fuel your fight against your anger instead of rebelling against it!

    You apparently have good qualifies if people think highly of you. Just because you can be a jerk doesn't mean you're unworthy of affections.
