oh god, I just thought of this one..

when my brother and I were like 8 and 9, we used to have a big playroom in the house, and there were a few times that we hid in the closet and kissed, because we thought we should be practicing for when we grew up and had boyfriends and girlfriends.

[koala]

I seriously wonder if I love my brother anymore. He's done a lot of shit to my parents and I.

I would love to move away. I love my friends and my parents to death, but I want to move away from all the drama. I wanna have friendships that aren't so "high school"

Everyday in third grade, I was attacked by a fellow classmate on te playground. He would push me down, lay on top of me and hump me. Sometimes I ran, sometimes i got away, sometimes i fought, sometimes i just lated there. I hate my teacher for telling me to go play after a particularly violent attack. When I changed schools the following year because we moved, i would have panic attacks and "stomach aches" right when i pulled up to school. My parents dont know. I want to tell my parents, but i don't know how they would react.

oh if i only had more time

no need to be leary of Alligator! He's been here for years. he once even sent me a b-day card with a dragon on it.

I have a soup phobia and I didn't even know it. All my life I've struggled to justify why "I hate soup" given that soup isn't a flavour or anything.

I try to learn the word for soup in other languages just to make sure I can avoid it.

If I even find out that someone used packet soup in the non-soup cooking (eg a sauce) then I don't want to eat it. I was staring in secret horror at a rice stir fry because M had put soup mix in it and he pointed out that I have this phobia. I feel like such a loser about this, for some reason.

I have a crush on an employee of mine who I am seriously old enough to be his mother. And not in a "well technically I could be your mother if I had you at 14" kind of way. Like I REALLY am old enough to be his mother.

acually, all the girls I work with have a crush on him. And we all could be his mother.

[culturehandy]

I'll never have children because I don't want to be my mother.

[raisingirl]

Okay, more. I mean, I love them both because they're my parents, but I love my dad way more than my mom. He means the world to me, even though I've never been "Daddy's little girl" in the traditional and icky sense. I like hanging out with him, even if we're just laughing over bad TV or going to the library together.

[voodoo_princess]

I am very leary of "alligator"s and don't think I like posting in this thread anymore.... see you all somewhere else.

[miss_jane]

I can't be bothered to call me dad and it puts me in a bad mood when he calls and i have to talk to him.

[raisingirl]

I LOVE HOUSE MUSIC AND I DON'T CARE IF THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS IT!

I'm still undecided, but I really don't think I'm going to call my mom today. She's been a pain in the ass lately. And, well, not like my inaction is going to teach her a lesson, but I can't be bothered with the obligation. Maybe the guilt will make me change my mind later this afternoon, but I'm not holding my breath.

[alligator]

Ok, a real one...

My enthusiasm for 80s Euro-disco and gay club music has begun to frighten me.

I call up radio stations and request Ken Laszlo's "Hey Hey Guy." I know the words to Scotch's "Disco Band" and Alan Ross's "Valentino Mon Amour." I find myself thinking, 'That song would be pretty funky if Lime reworked it as a HiNRG dance track.' This is not healthy. At this rate I'm going to have to re-subscribe to Guns & Ammo to re-butch myself...

[alligator]

Sometimes when we touch, the honesty's too much. And I have to close my eyes and hide.

There. I said it.

[lunasol]

i'm a horrible snob. if i think someone's not smart enough, i can't even be bothered with them. this is really, really bad given my line of work. it's something i should get over, but i actually don't want to get over it.

and in general, i've become lately the kind of person who just can't be bothered with people i don't like. in many ways, this is a good thing, because i used to be way too concerned what others thought of me, but i worry i'm becoming the bad kind of bitch.

[missladyj]

I started posting with out ever going to the Newbie thread

[pollystyrene]

Oh, I just remembered this one!

When I was in college and really depressed, it made me hyper-sexual. Anytime I wasn't in class or working, and my roommate wasn't around, I'd use her computer to find fairly raunchy erotica on the internet and jerk off right at her desk, wearing just a bathrobe. I never touched the keyboard with the hand I used or anything, but it was still a pretty rude thing to do, and not something I'm proud of now.

Unfortunately, I haven't had that same level of horniness with the current round of depression.

P.S. I don't think that makes you a bitch, pepper- I hate my rude neighbors!

[pepper]

i call the police on my neighbours.
i leave anonymous notes on their doors and windshields about leaving garbage and other junk in the hallways, parking in the no parking emergency spot and wheelchair access parking outside, and for throwing cigarette butts on the ground around the building. i call the building manager whenever something happens and tell her who did it.
i also give the teenagers and their visitors shit, like i really tell them off in a nasty way when i catch them up to no good.
maybe this makes me a bad neighbour but i just don't care. i live here with my kid and i refuse to put up with it.
i am such a bitch.


oh, and the last boy i went out with i used for sex for the last three months of a year together before breaking up with him even though he kept telling me that he was in love with me and i didn't feel anything for him anymore.
that was mean.

[humanist77]

Ooo I want to play! Why didn't I notice this thread earlier?

I LOVE to speed while driving even though I know how dangerous it is and I know I will get caught eventually. I know I have to stop.

um..I will post more as I think of them..

[lunasol]

wow. this thread is ... amazing. actually, my first confession is that this threa makes me feel better about myself. which is not to say i feel better than anyone here, but it's nice to know i'm not the only one feeling and doing many of these things.

i just wrote a whole bunch of other stuff, and then deleted it. i guess that's my other confession: i'm a coward. maybe next time.

in the meantime, big props and thanks to everyone else with the guts to post.

[obelix]

I lie. I have developed a reputation as being absolutely horrible at lying, and everybody buys it. Because of this, I can lie to all of my friends and they believe me.

[bklynhermit]

i love bitching about people's places in the home tours on www.apartmenttherapy.com

i say the most terrible things about people and their homes. and usually the resident actually reads the threads there, so they get to read my terrible screeds about how they have no style and are just rich assholes who bought the entire Design Within Reach catalogue.

what else, what else?

i think all three of my brothers are white trash.

i once had a crush on this girl, and then one day she wore a low cut tank top and i saw that she had coarse black hairs growing down her chest between her breasts. i stopped being attracted to her right then. and i'm one of those hairy-leg advocate type feminists who doesn't believe in removing any body hair whatsoever.

i'm currently unemployed and have no interest in looking for a job, especially since i'll be going back to my original job in august. seriously, i'm really tempted to feign looking all summer and just be 2 months behind on rent. even though it would be completely unfair to my roommate.
