Things that cause me stress: disharmony, judgmental people, lack of communication, chaos, injustice rigidity, isolation, overly aggressive people, paperwork and too many details, cruelty to children and animals, being yelled at, being lied to, conflict, tunnel vision, politics, bossy/negative people, arrogance, lack of support, narrow-mindedness, lack of understanding, no hugs, heartlessness, lack of integrity, insensitivity, not being able to express myself, lack of romance, cynics, people who won’t grow, dealing with untrustworthy people, unresolved confrontations.

Things I wish people did more of: tell me what your personal feelings are about any topic, listen attentively and look at me while talking to me, tell me what you appreciate about me, physical contact (appropriate hugs and kisses) accept my individuality, allow me to express my feelings and above all be honest and sincere, I can’t stand a phony.

Things I wish people did less of: be abrupt or cut me off while I’m talking, discount my dreams, expect me to be confrontational, compare me to someone else, deny my emotions or criticize my sensitivity, ignore me, take advantage of my kindness.
