Someone told me he is a self destructive mess that probably would treat anyone that cared about him terribly. He said people mistake his politeness for being genuine. Then he asked me if I had a tumbler account and offered me his phone number. Is this a test? To who it may concern, I aim to treat everyone with respect and have no interest in being treated terribly. I appreciate the frankness and humility necessary to own one's problems. That isn't enough. Admitting to being unappreciative and abusive isn't enough. It isn't a destiny. It is a choice. Take steps towards genuine caring for yourself and others and let me know how that's going. PEACE

Just wanted to get laid, excuses for vanishing afterwards offered in advance, so he Never has to speak to you again once he gets off.

And I'm pretty good to have around too! No thank you to boarding that ship. I said think with me, not sink with me.

Only way to know is go hang out and see what he means. Maybe he's being over self critical, or maybe hes calling it exactly as it is. I certainly have issues I can see, but don't feel ready to address. Identifying flawed behavior is a beginning... but I know from personal experience, it isn't enough.

Out of compassion and/or because it is my job and with back up. What I don't need is to be a willing victim. I prefer to invite people who care into my life I need to care about me or I end up with nothing to give.

Sadly not even weird, but common to me.
