I was going to lie. I had a history of mental health issues and I was informed that I could have not shared the information. I don't know if I would have been able to join the military after MEPS, but I was ready to sign the contract to give it a try. I did not discover my thyroid issue at the time. The contract signing was a hyperbole. I already signed all necessary paperwork and I was about to run it through to MEPs before my graduation so I could head to Charlotte for MEPs when I was told that my family wanted me to move to California with them. Face the possibility of being turned away from the military or possible future reprimand for concealing info or move to California? Hmmm...
I don't know if I could join the military even now without withholding my medical records but after college I hope to look into my options of enlistment. I wanted to join the military and I know that it would have provided money for college however, it was the difference between a sure thing (moving away at that time and taking the opportunity to go to college which would have been almost guaranteed) and trying to go for the military but failing. I chose the option that carried the highest chance of success.
""I will be a loser in society until I make the transfer...""
That is just how I feel. I'm sorry if you take offense to it. You can say that I am throwing myself a pity party or a superiority party if you want, and maybe to an extent in some of my posts it is true, but to say that my posts revolve around said qualities? That is your opinion and I respect it.
"I'm not trying to attack you personally, so don't think that, I'm just answering your question honestly."
"you're full of shit."
So telling me that my posts revolve around my jealousy, self pity and superiority issue is not a personal attack? Telling me that I am full of shit is not a personal attack? I'd hate to know what constitutes as a personal attack in your eyes.
I respect your opinion, however, I do not entirely agree. If that is the way that you take my communications then you are free to hold said opinion. Just because I do not choose to fully disclose the details of my personal life within every and any post and explain my reasoning so that people like you can assure yourselves of my integrity does not mean that I am "full of shit" as you say.
No, it's not a personal attack, you asked for opinions and you got them. If I were personally attacking you I'd be saying things I had no real basis in saying and doing it for the main purpose of insulting and hurting you, and that's not the case. I'm telling you the truth based on my observations. I know, you just wanted people to reply saying 'oh you're doing great, better then so and so, etc...' but if you don't want to hear truthful answers then don't ask and if you insist on asking then don't hate the person who responds honestly.
IIN to wonder how skinny girls see me? (you want people to say 'oh you're not fat')
IIN to use the search bar? (passive aggressive 'you're an idiot and I'm better than you' post)
IIN to see working fast food as a last resort? (I'm soooo above that)
IIN to talk to my boss about sex? (yet you wrote an essay on how you were SOOOO upset that you got sexually harassed at work before)
IIN people who complain about drama bring it on themselves? (um, hello...)
IIN fat women=curvy? (catty)
IIN my mom is always so sick? (um, then how did she 'beat the shit out of you' and control your life as you claim?)
IIN I don't want to make friends that are needy? (Oh the irony)
And the GRAND FINALE...IIN she still blames her mother? (if irony needed to be defined, here it is)
I had to explain this to MissSorel once before. Some of the stories are about family or friend relations that I try to keep to a decent level of anonymity from any one of them that would use google search. It's a retarded tactic, I know, and a weak attempt at best and I probably shouldn't leave that stuff posted on my profile with my picture because, well, too obvious.
I don't have a problem with you posting harsh comments. I also feel that I have the right to be able to act in my own defense. I understand your interpretation of my stories and if you wish to think less of me because of how you view my stories, posts and opinions then I leave that to you.
Contrary to anything that I have said and you might interpret, I am not here to please you. Once again, I respect your opinions. I know that sometimes I need to hear this stuff in order to keep my perspectives in check.
Interpret how you will, I actually DO appreciate what you are saying. But, in my defense...
IIN to wonder how skinny girls see me? (No, I really DO wonder if I am the only person that wonders how very thin girls see me if I am thin and see girls that weight substantially more to me as heavy)
IIN to use the search bar? (No, really. I wanted to know if it was normal to use the search bar. Although there is some passive aggressive "please use the search bar, dumbass" in there, the question is sincere)
IIN to see working fast food as a last resort? (I worked fast food before. I hated it. My Mom works fast food, it sucks for her. I wouldn't want to do it unless I had to. I am a security guard. Honestly, how much pride could that alot me?)
IIN to talk to my boss about sex? (Yes, I was sexually harassed at work. I fail to see your point.)
IIN people who complain about drama bring it on themselves? (Yes?)
IIN fat women=curvy? (catty = true. Like you're innocent of it.)
IIN my mom is always so sick? (Different familial relationship, details still the same.)
IIN I don't want to make friends that are needy? (Irony? I fail to see it. I don't want friends that hit me up for money or rides. It annoys me because I have little resources to spare myself.)
And the GRAND FINALE...IIN she still blames her mother? (I do see the irony, however, I hold myself accountable for the choices that I have made, regardless of whether they were influenced by her and I do believe that her abuse was responsible for my having to leave. Take that how you will.)
That's about all of the defense I am going to give. If you wish to continue, then you are free to do so. Once again, I appreciate it but if you're going to look for more reasons to prove my character as fallible then you have plenty of evidence to go on and by anyone's interpretation, I am a fallible human being. But if you want an apology for my weaknesses, you will not get one.
Neediness comes in different forms, yours seems to be constant ego stroking and pity upon you. I don't think my comments thus far have been harsh, again claiming my comment is harsh but yet it's based completely upon what YOU have posted and revealed about yourself is a bit unreasonable.
I certainly don't want you to apologize for anything, just maybe see where I'm coming from. You are who you are, I am who I am, we can coexist, no problem.
Claiming that I am being unreasonable for defending myself against your allegations of my being full of shit and in constant need of pity and ego-stroking which is based off of your interpretations of my posts and stories seems to ME to be a bit unreasonable in and of itself.
Once again, if you want to find flaw with me, you have no shortage of material to work with. I have no issue with co-existing with you. You are not the first person to find fault with my character and you surely will not be the last. If I couldn't live with that then surely I would not be alive today.
Is it normal to feel ashamed that I go to Junior College?

It was nice speaking to you. Have a good night.
