pedestal epiphany

this is the thing, and if you REALLY take my advice, you will save yourself a LOT of heartache.

if someone tells you that you are giving them to much credit, they are NOT being MODEST. they are being HONEST.

NEVER put someone on a pedestal that hasnt EARNED it.

Just because you see a kernel of potential or a glimmer of integrity in a person it DOES NOT mean that they will EVER live up to HALF of your expectations.

most of the time, people are endlessly dissapointing. especially if: they are male or if they have a name starting with an S, or J. Especially J. And especially if they tell YOU that 'you are to good to be true."

also i have become a student of names. if you meet one bad egg with a certain name, most of the time all the other eggs with that same name are cracked or from the same carton. TRUST ME. avoid repeating names. avoid men with april birthdays. avoid men who eat snickers for breakfast. avoid men who question YOUR fashion sense. i could go on forever but....

and if you ever hear the phrase, "i have always wanted to meet someone like you. i have been describing you all my life...' or some shit like that. you have a con man on your hands girls. abandon ship. flee the scene.

RUN FOR YOUR LIFE LADIES.
