I did a little game of 10 truths about myself with another listener, and found that it was a fun way to learn about who I was! I think it would be fun to get even more people involved so that we can actually get to know one another in the 7cups community! My 10 truths: 1. I am gender-queer (feel free to ask) 2. I am a 18+ year dancer :-) 3. I believe in everyone no matter what 4. I dont have my life together, but im working on it 5. I see myself trying to go to college soon! 6. I love music as a whole 7. I have 2 brothers and a sister I have never met 8. I love to help others 9. I believe in the good in everyone 10. I know I am not perfect, but im ok with that! You dont have to share 10, but I hope you can share at least one thing about yourself!

1. I love languages and anything to related to them. I've been learning Japanese, Korean, Dutch, German, Spanish and Arabic. 2. I'm kinda of a hardcore gamer. I've tried to mirror my problems into a game I've been playing and it has really helped in the healing process. 3. I'm straight edge. 4. I like music that is highly experimental, if that makes any sense. 5. I'm kinda of an army dropout. You see, back in my country, conscription still exists. Oneday the pressure and the mocking of my peers got me and I suffered the worst breakdown ever. I was down shaking like jelly and barely being able to breathe. Managed to get out, despite the look of disgust I got from my mother when I did. 6. No matter who I befriend,I feel alone. 7. I've mistreated people and I believe everything bad I get is karma. 8. I'm too immature for a romantic relationship. 9. I always lose at arguments. 10. I'm obsessed with keeping my hair long.

Let me give this a shot too! Seems fun!

1) I have many problems which easily brings me down, but being a listener here really helps me put perspective on things and move on.

2) I have been madly in love with a girl for one and a half years, and I still can't move on despite rejection.

3) I had two tortoises before who were insanely quick for no apparent reason.

4) I easily pick up different interests and go all-in on them, then grow tired and quit.

5) I get stressed when not doing something productive, which is problematic since I'm a huge procrastinator.

6) I rarely fall asleep before 1 am. Ever.

7) I don't like my country where I live and will most probably move from here in short future.

8) I want to study law after moving away.

9) I am getting annoyed about the fact that all my points are starting with the same word.

10) That is because I like language with flow. I love English despite it being my second language.

Let's see, um ten truths.

1) I absolutely hate being touched, but put up with it because it is easier than telling everybody I hating being touched, and then having them apologize when I remind them.

2) I sleep with a giant ikea teddy bear Daddy got me when I was 5ish. He keeps me calm, and is the best thing to cuddle with after an intense nightmare.
3) I have TARDIS string lights hanging on my bed frame. Not only are they cool, but they light up my room just enough so that I don't forget where I am.
4) I love to write poetry. I'm not sure where I'd be today without it.
5) Due to depression, I haven't been able to write. I can't even write a simple haiku. :(
6) I am madly in love with my straight female best friend. She'll never love me back, but I'm fine with being so close to her that we could almost be girlfriends. Holding her hand in class is the absolute best thing.
7) I've pushed people away in my life that I wanted to keep because I didn't want to hurt them anymore. To be honest, we were cataclysmic together.
8) I'm watching the girl I love fall down the same slippery slope as I did, and I'm terrified to see myself in her. I'm terrified that her brother is pushing her towards a place I'd rather her not go.
9) I procrastinate and procrastinate, I just can't seem to get work done ever. Lmao
10) As much as I love Calc BC and AP Biology, the classes have become a chore. I am trying to get at least a weighted 4.0 gpa and on top of that stay the best in my AP Biology class. Everybody looks up to me, I have passed test with a 93 to have the next highest grade be a 76. I feel like I must keep everything up, and idk why.

I found this thread interesting so I thought I would share!

1. I was sexually abused for 2 years, starting when I was 7, and I find it very hard to have real, functioningrelationships with people. But when I meet someone I trust I never want to be without them.

2.Sometimes I wonder if getting married as the right decision for me. I love him, but I a lot of the time I want nothing more than to be left alone.

3. I am currently unemployed but I am leaving for boot camp in 5 weeks and am very excited to start my life.

4. I love cats, like a lot.

5. I guess this could be considered an extension of #4, but I have a small, but growing collection of Hello Kitties (I have 8 currently).

6.I was a musician for 11 years, I found playing instruments helped me escape from all the bad things happening while growing up. I was also 6th chair in the state of Alabama for my instrument 2 years ago.

7.I secretly wish there was another one of me so I could dress her up how I wish I could dress. I go back an forth in my style, it alternatesbetween hipster to classy chic to edgy to boho.

8. Pilates and yoga are my favorite forms of exercise, pretty much anything but running, I hate running.

9.My life feels like the color has been stripped from it since my cat (I had him for 11 years) passed away in October. He was my baby.

10.I feel pressured to have kids, but in reality they're the last thing I'm thinking about. Having children has never appealed to me.

We have a lot in common. yes

I lost a cat to FIP at 3 years old and have never been the same. It was like someone pulled all of the air out if my lungs. I like how you described it, too.

Here goes...

1. I am my own worst enemy, I have been bullied all my life, but my own opinion of myself is worst then any others.

2. I don't let people to close to me and have a habbit of pushing people away as I don't think I will be good enough for them.

3. I have a stubborn streak, did not want to go to the doctors to talk about my depression which I have had for a year as I am ashamed of myself.

4. I had selective mutism as a kid and even now still struggle in social situations.

5. I always take on other people's problems and want to help them with theirs, in doing this I probably neglect my own.

6. I have always wanted to travel the world and write a book (however never will anything I do be good enough to be published)

7. I think my boyfriend is too good for me/I am not good enough for him.

8. My family are my life. I think unintentionally I've nearly pushed most of my "friends" away.

9. I am a bubbly person on the outside but inside I feel dead.

10. Music always takes me away to a better place. And the things that help me on a daily basis to atleast live a little are bright vibrant colours, my pets, funny pictures and videos and of course my family as already mentioned.

10 Truths

1- I have coulrophobia. I am terrified of clowns and have had this since I was about 10 years old. Slowly realizing that my fear is a bit irrational at times.

2-I absolutely love to sing. I am not the best singer but can hold a tune. I love singing (playing Rockband, Karaoke) whenever I am stressed out. It is a great release!

3- Sometimes my anxiety gets the best of me and I have my days where I lay in bed and feel like I don?t want to do much. Then I realize my purpose. That helps me with motivating myself.

4- I am spiritual but not religious. I consider myself agnostic at times because I just don?t know what?s out there. I?d like to believe that we were put here by a higher being for a divine purpose. Would suck to think that there is nothing after this world!

5- There are times were I am way too hard on myself. I expect greatness, from everyone, it?s just who I am. I guess I can be a perfectionist at times. When I don?t do good with school, or my work isn?t up to par at work I def come down harder on myself than anyone else would.

6- In H.S. I was a practicing Wiccan.

7- I have three cats (two are brother and sister who I couldn?t bear separating) Nemo, Nova and Geppeto.

8- I am the first person in my family to graduate high school and go on to college!

9- I would like to retire in Hawaii. Absolutely gorgeous over there! Went to Oahu for vacation back in 2013 and am dying to go back a.s.a.p.!

10- I am a Netflix binge watcher! Greys Anatomy, Walking Dead, Orange is the New Black, Bates Motel, American Horror Story!!!
