  • ....You sure about that now? Trolololol
    But I do get that a lot from people over the internet. I would guess it has a lot to do with the medium being the internet.
    Social anxiety and perfectionism (imo) are paradoxical in that you are trying so hard and expecting so much of yourself that you actually get a worse output than if you expected so much less from yourself, which would leave you with a lot more room to move and forgive yourself, while in the process allowing you to forgive others more easily as well. (Sorry, I say "you" a lot out of habit) But yeah working on that perfectionism in our relationships and in other activities will bring our anxiety down a lot and allow us more space to think clearly. It sounds like a very good thing to work on. It's just hard to pinpoint the perfectionist attitude (for me) at times. Here's something interesting... my counselor suggested that to work on my NFness I should go into one of the lounge areas at my college, pretend to read or do something and then try to pick up on people's emotions around me. It's actually quite interesting at times. Though I don't necessarily pick up on emotions (since people aren't emotional 100% of the time) I can look at the ways people are communicating and their facial expressions to guess at what type of conversation they are having. Be it personal or superficial; joking around or flirting or whatever. It's pretty fun. Have you ever tried something like that?
    Alright thanks. I don't know why I was stressing out over a simple matter. I'm off to purchase the book now and receive some self help.. I really need it :D
    I have a quick question. I didn't know how to fill out the info on amazon. What do you fill in 'address line 1'? I need to fill in street address, P.O. box, company name, c/o
    I don't know why, but I'm getting irritated easily. I hate not understanding basic things. I didn't even know where to find it when I was at the book store..
    oh well, at least I'm learning
    okay mike... :D

    I actually went by barns & nobles last night. I couldn't find the book. What section would it be under? I was looking under 'self help' section but maybe I didn't look hard enough. I ended up reading the bio on bob marly. The book wasn't as interesting as I thought so I didn't buy it.

    I'm still reading through the book of Matthew. Some of it sounds familiar, like I've read through it before (but it's most likely what I heard preachers go over). I'm finding it interesting nonetheless.

    This one verse is something that really stuck with me. It speaks about anxiety, which I seem to have a lot of.

    Matthew 6:34
    Therefore do not be anxious for tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

    There is plenty more for me to learn though, so I'm not going to rip out a page of the Bible and run with it like I got all the answers. :D Yeah, and my xbox account is used up, so I definitely need new hobbies. I can definitely afford to read some more.. Why the hell not- I'll buy the book you recommended on amazon. It's killing me, just working and having nothing to look forward to when I get home.
    Yeah, tbh, That's how I took it at first..
    I feel you... that's all I'm gonna do from now on. :m069:
    Oh cool, that gives me something to do tomorrow, so thanks! I'll head by the book store to check it out. I'm glad you're feeling better.
    I know you're not much into worship stuff but this song is really touching imo. When I first listened to it, I was amazed by the woman's vocals in the beginning. She really sings with a lot of soul. It even brought me to tears, I'm not gonna lie :-)
