Maybe I'm just too cheerful?

or too happy-go-lucky? Lesson learned: You can't be optimistic when talking to a friend that is pessimistic because then you'll look like a "holier than thou" BEE CAREFUL when saying, "I know how hard it is, I've been there You'll be fine, I am just FINE!!! It will all be great in no time at all, just wait and see" because that can be construed as "I'm better than you because I'm not having this problem any more. Ha ha, you are."

A pessimist sees only the dark side of the clouds, and mopes; a philosopher sees both sides, and shrugs; an optimist doesn't see the clouds at all - he's walking on them.

So fine, she squelched me by telling me I'm a self-centered better than anyone around me egotist. And clearly - I am better than her with a attitude like that. Why am I still friends with this Cuban? And no, she doesn't have my blog address!

I thought you ditched her a long time ago? She just doesn't know you that well, I guess... to know that really, you are completely harmless, and you actually make sense most of the time! Reminds me, I gotta tell you something....

Ah, just ignore her. Pay attention to us! :) Of course you may get bored and need to go back to her for entertainment? :P

This Cuban? Sorry, but I keep picturing you talking to a cigar.
