I am not perfect in any way.

Let me list some of those ways:

I have a smart remark for every occasion
I am hotheaded
I rush in to defend or attack without thinking
I never can keep my mouth shut
I offend people easily and unintentionally
I'm gay
I'm married
I am probably bi-polar, certainly in mood swings
I have been seriously depressed most of my life
Happiness has eluded me - it arrives and I miss it and grab a nettle instead

There are more thimsg here, many more.

But you each expect, or some of you expect me to be perfect, even tempered, logical, the soul of tact and discretion, rational at all times, to give you lomg and reasoned replies to things, to react in your timeframe not in mine.

I can't do that.

I ask for things the wrong way sometimes. People mistake that for "getting the last word". I don't want it. When I've asked for thinsg to stop then last word has already been said, but someone always wants more.

I have so had enough right now. Some things in my life are wonderful, others awful. Those who need to know about it know and are helping me. Those who hope I'll share it with them, I am sorry, for a number of reasons I cannot, so please try to trust that. But I have had enough.

Just to give you a trivial idea, yesterday I skinned a knickle badly enough to drip blood. 5 minutes ago when doing the dishes I banged the tip of a kinfie into the same wound by accident.

I am not perefect. If you ever dare to think I am, grow the fuck up. This is life, warts and all, not a rose tinted place, though I wish it were.
