God yes. lol


How did you feel about "your" best friend? I mean, this bitchy woman was manipulative, condescending, downright hateful, phony, loud and obnoxious, thought she was cute and she looked like a man. Sometimes I would get so frustrated I would just blurt out..."WTF do you see in this bitch? How can you stand to be around her for hours at a time out shopping? Seriously, Pam...I would kill her on a road trip."

In the beginning, I tired very hard to get along with her for my friends sake. Hell, we even went out alone together when Pam got sick and we had benefit tickets. But, I am not that phony, and could not keep up the pretense.

We were all supposed to go on a cruise to Jamaica. The closer it got to our departure date, the more I knew that I would throw her overboard and be arrested for murder outside the US. stab I told Pam that her trip would be ruined, and I did not feel like causing tension and so I cancelled.

How would you feel about "your" friend being friends with someone who was so obviously TO YOU a phony, spiteful person? Would you look at them differently and wonder why the hell you were even friends? Or would you just chalk it up to bad chemistry?

clarification edit
[Edited 4/12/08 9:26am]
Once upon a time, I would question why some of my friends were friends with someone I couldn't stand or be friends with someone they know I have issues with but I got over it. Now, if there is an event that both of us would have to attend, I just bow out gracefully: I'm not trying to ruin anyone's fun. As far as the best friend is concerned, I love him dearly but most of the chicks he's dated/been in relationships with, have caused rifts in our relationship. One had issues with me even though they lived 2000 miles away from me. Sometimes, you just have to be understanding: those were the people he loved but hopefully he checked them on their bullshit. I guess our relationship is different anyway because I feel most women have problems with their man having female friends, even if that friend has been around for many years before they met. At least he's dating someone that i get along with now. lol

I definitely believe in it, I've met people that I've immediately felt a bad vibe from or made me completely uncomfortable when I was around them and I generally stay away from people once I feel or get that vibe.

I think people get their hopes up when they assume too much of someone they never met -- especially on a site like this. People easily build up an image of a person in their mind that is sometimes unrealistic -- to the point where one gets upset when what they perceive in their mind clashes with the reality.

I don't tend to do hate at first sight, i prefer to have a valid reason to hate someones guts.....and i do.....many. However that is not to say it is as much the person as the attitude or thinking that i tend to hate

I know, right? nod
some people must not be comfortable enough in their own skin to be able to do that, and that is pretty sad sad

sometimes i wonder if people make a conscious choice to have an online personality and a "real time" personality. it could be that they have an unaffected affectation. lol

I definitely have a "sixth sense" about people. I can tell almost from the moment I meet someone whether I'm going to be okay with them or not. And if it's a "not" situation, I usually find out something later that justifies my initial feelings.

Like there's this guy I work with. Something about him gave me the woogies from jump. I found out later that he lied on his resume to get hired here.

i've been thinking about this a bit...when i was younger, sometimes people who gave me a strong negative reaction when i first met them would become some of my closest friends. but i think with time and age, those impulses get sharper and more trustworthy (though never 100%).
