It occurs to me especially when looking at profiles that there's a lot about us that we want to hide. Not many (if any) come out and blab about how f'ked-up they are or how unhealthy they are. I suppose it's only natural to want to put our best foot forward...especially on a site where most are trying to look "attractive" to a potential mate.
Most stories about past relationships demonize the "ex", but I wonder if it's always the fault of the ex that the relationship failed. Most would like us to think so. I've probably been the reason that my past relationships have failed more often than not. I'm f"ked-up to some degree (who isn't?) Now, I know that I'm not helping myself to find that special someone by saying these things, but...it's honest. Don't most say that they want honesty? Do the people that say it practice what they preach?
So here's my dirty lil secret (for today anyway). I'm currently suspended from work because I tested positive for marijuana during a random DOT mandated drug screening. I've been lucky over the last 15 years or so, but as I've grown fond of saying lately "You can only play Russian Roulette so long before you shoot yourself in the face", and I finally took a bullet.
Anyone else?

I'm a procrastinator with stinky feet and a big nose.
I've been arrested several times by the police. Most of those times were as a minor and for posession (see OP) and most recently in 1993 for a DWI.

I'm bipolar, very insecure about my body, I can be very nasty when I want to be, I can be manipulative but usually I'm not, and I am very irresponsible.

My infertility was a major factor in the failure of my maraige. And in many ways, this kept me from keeping my end of the relationship afloat. He saw me as a great deal less attractive because of this (and eventually I saw myself this way as well)
In the end, there are few things in life that do not happen to us without our own ability to choose. I chose to stay in a relationship that made us both miserable. If I had cut the bonds sooner, he may have had a better chance at the large family he had always dreamed of.
I'm so damn independant that I have made virtually no room for a man in my life.

 Everyone, and thanks.
I'm moody at times, I tend to avoid people who are likely to annoy me. I get angry too easily at people who are inconsiderate and oblivious to those around them. I sometimes have too high an opinion of myself. I have a huge mirror in my bathroom that I look in before and after taking a shower (naked) to carefully inspect any areas that might be getting too...er...fleshy for my liking.
Sheesh, I could go on for hours....
Next! Anyone...anyone...Beuler?

I've been told that I refuse to need anyone for anything... I just do it myself...
and so women have always felt they had nothing to contribute, and became insecure and left...

I walked out of my marriage because my step son used me as his personal punching bag...Like LGQ, I am insecure about my body too.. wouldn't you be if all you ever heard from your father was that you were a freak of nature?.. add to that the fact that I couldn't have children was another one of his favorite personal digs at me..
and i used to smoke a helluva lotta pot in my 20's

Oh damn...that reminds me. I've recently dismissed my family (siblings) when they offered help with my current misfortune. (again, see OP) I'll get through it in one way or another because I always have.
I've been taking care of my own problems for so long, I don't ever think to look for anyone else's help, and I don't want anyone's help.
I think there's a selfishness lying somewhere beneath the surface where I don't want to feel in debt to anyone. When dating, I most always insist on paying, and I've been known to buy a round for an entire bar...I don't accept compliments or gifts very well, and probably for the same reason(s). I'm fairly generous, but like I said, I think some of it is about not being in debt.
As far as helping others, I'd probably rather help with money than with my time.
sheesh, I suck.

I base every potential mate against my father. The poor bastards don't stand a chance.
I am repulsed by bible thumpers. No. I don't think you understand. I'm repulsed. I can't even hear what they are saying. I just hear them giggling madly and mentally picture them rocking back and forth gazing at the sky waiting for jesus to come.
That may not be fair (and I'm sure it's not) but I can't get past that visual.
I can only be social for short burst' of time. I am much to reclusive and find my writing to be better company than most parties.
I look at every potential mate and mentally picture how our babies would look. And have been known to turn away from a man if the visual is to horrific to comprehend.
I tend to root for the underdog even if he is an idiot and has made an utter ass out himself.

Im very insecure about my physical person prolly because of an ex who berated me when fat or thin and its very hard for me to accept compliments about how I look.. (bugs the heck outta Mac  ) I sometimes think less of myself because I was at one time thinner and more appealing (by societies standards ) but I have in the past few years worked on that and liking ME for me and found that the people whose opinion of me really matters like me for me too  I CAN be a bit OVERBEARING and stubborn and downright vicious when you fck with me or mine but that is a GOOD thing right?? I do tend to use my intelligence to put others in their place when they cross the line... oh and I have BIG FEET

Congrats Painter...that's great!!
I'm happily married, but it doesn't stop me from oggling other women's boobs and butts and fantasizing about them.

*sits down and covers up boobs
I have used my share of doobie in the past, and I can't really remember ever paying for it. Of course, I could have just smoked so much pot that it affected my memory. Who knows?
I once stole a car. 
I judge others people by their parenting skills.
