Awww shucks thanks you guys!
I had to post this because I have to write these things down and remember them. The last thing I want to do is get back to a place where my own arrogance becomes my worst enemy again. So I am making a point in my life to be completely humble and admit I have my own "WTF am I thinkin" moments! And I am getting better at stepping up and accepting responsibility for them nowadays.
Hearing myself trying to convince someone to be with me was disgusting and pathetic. I mean...really...do I think I can't do any better than that? If so, then I need to fix whatever is broken inside of ME. Who gives a sh!t what he does or doesn't do.
