In the interests of adding to positive thoughts / energy in what seems to be a rough time for a lot of folks (stolen from my darling [livejournal.com profile] monkeyman )

Comment here, and I'll give you one (most likely several) reasons why I like you.

You are smart and committed to the things you believe in. You're talented and you're absolutely, distinctly, completely you. And I know that no matter how much time passes between us seeing each other, it will be as though we were never apart

That is beautiful. I thank you. For a girl who is in the process of re-figuring things out, that is nice to know how you see me. It is true about true friends, that no matter how long it is between "visits" it is like no time has past... Sending you big rays of love...

I find you have strength and resolve in matters of the heart and body. Hope that makes sense.

Thank you. You remind how good it is to make connections online with people I might never have met otherwise

I could use some love right now (LOL)

You're a profile in courage for me; hoping some will rub off.

I love that the first words you said to me were compliments ;) And I love that you are such a fearless, and vocal advocate for the big, the full-figured and the zaftig.

I'm picturing Queen Latifah in Hairspray singing "Big, Blonde and Beautiful"

This should be interesting.

You're a tough one because I don't know you that well and you're a recent convert to chronicpaintism.

But you're another one who makes me glad that I can connect with people from a distance using this tool. You've let me be a part of your online life and share in your world. And you're kinda cute too :)

What do you mean "kinda cute"?

I'm crushed beyond words.

Bitch, please. You make me sound like Audi or something.

As you will learn, Grasshopper, if I see an opening for something humorous, I will grab it. More often than not in a self-deprecating manner. But never, never, in a malicious manner.

Unless I set the inner Dago loose then it's women and children first and you're on your own.

Must be another reason why I like you :)

We don't know each other well, but I'll bite.

It's okay. That's what friends are for.

You are a survivor. You got through something that few would or could, even though you don't see it.

You wear your heart on your sleeve and despite how hard that can be sometimes, it's a good thing to be yourself and share what you feel.

You remind me of who I used to be once. I hope that our friendship shows you that you can survive and thrive and be the awesome guy that you are.

I'll bite... ;) well, nibble...

Posted by [identity profile] chronicpaint.livejournal.com
Well, being willing to bite or nibble is always a good place to start. ;)

You are sweet, smart and very cute. Your heart is open and you're full of love, a definite old fashioned romantic.

Which I admire. Even though I can't relate ;)

*laughs* yeah... that whole old fashioned romantic thing...

Not many of us kind left...

I have some of it in me. Despite all evidence to the contrary.

You are brazen and brave. You are wild and free and you do things your own way and damn the torpedoes. I envy how open and daring you are, and wish sometimes I had your confidence.

You have opened my eyes.

I'll do my very best to rub some off on you whenever we first meet...

Hehehe. Dirrrrrrrrty

Which is another thing I like about you

Just be careful of your aim. Because my eyes are open ;) Because of you

Be sure to blink, though... certain things are, erm, annoying to wash out of one's eyes. Not that I know from experience or anything... *whistles innocently*

Been there, done that.

I mean, have a friend who's been there and done that ;)

Wow. In your case, you're a serious example of how strong man can be. Then you're amusing too, I love your date stories!

You are sweet and smart and loving. I love reading about your part of the world, as seen through your eyes. I want to come and visit, just so you could show me around and we could just talk for hours

You are an amazing writer, but I didn't find that out until long after you had become my friend for life. Just reading your entries here makes me smile. I remember liking you just from talking to you on the phone back in the day. And then when we finally met, it was like we'd always known each other.

I admire your talent, your spirit and your commitment to books and sharing them with people. It reminds me of something that has passed from my life, but have missed.

my first glimpse of you was also my first look at Bill Pusztai's photography, and I was absolutely blown away by your honesty and beauty and I wanted to read more of what you wrote and more about you. I didn't "friend" you right away, but I shyly kept reading and commenting here and there, and then managed to weave a spider thread from my keyboard to your page, and I'm glad I did.

Like your username, you are clever. I can always see in your words the mind behind them, the desire to know and understand and make sense of what you're taking in.

You are sassy. There's no other way to describe it. I picture you standing up to bullies and scaring them off. You're you and that's that and anyone who doesn't like it, can lump it.

I admire that so much and it's something I aspire to.

Aww, thank you!

Hmm... I'd like to think I stand up to bullies... I did once call my eldest brother-in-law out, at Christmas dinner no less, for being insufferably rude and dismissive to his mother. I was shaking and my body temp plummeted, but I didn't back down, and got him to apologize.
