This is kind of weird...

A perfect world for me would be that if I had to work around women they watched shows on USA Network/HGTV/NatGeo/The Travel Channel. They listen to podcasts, they dress modest, the woman are polite, nice, and up front with you in a professional manner...no head games.

I agree. Too much nonsense goes on among the female population these days, and I have to say that it makes all women look absolutely ridiculous at times. I feel ashamed for my gender because of the way women carry themselves.

I'm not a Christian, nor do I follow any type of religion, but I do have something that many other girls don't have: I have respect for myself and those around me. I've learned that if I can respect myself and carry myself in a professional and caring manner, then I can respect those around me. Too much media these days, especially in the TV shows you mentioned, reflect and enforce the messages that women live by these days.

To me, the solitude and happiness you find when you're working alone is normal... and I can relate. I don't like going out with friends to parties, or even going out with people just for casual lunches. I like being by myself where I have control over who I can listen to. I guess that's why I chose the job I have-- I can work from home and work with people directly, yet in a way that gives me my space.

Hearing what you said in this post really reminds me of myself. A lot of the times I consider myself a bitter person, someone who is too close-minded. But most of the time I know that my more private ways of living life are perfect. I don't have to deal with all the annoyances of everyday life by living among other people, and I get to choose who I communicate with (which is usually online).

It's nice having someone else be on the same level as me for once. Shawn is probably the only other person I've found who I can talk with this about!
