What I Hate About Me: I Look Like The Grinch
It recently dawned on me that I am being too picky with the girls I date. After I thought about this idea in more depth, I realized that I’m really no prize, so who am I to even be picky? I decided to try an exercise that is very much against what I was taught to do. I spent 14 years being educated at a small private Quaker school. The experience was amazing, but it gave me too much self worth. I distinctly remember a story about an I.L.A.C sign that hangs invisibly around our necks. I.L.A.C stands for I Am Loveable And Capable. It’s taken me years to even buy into this—and, you know what, I still haven’t bought into it completely. The story dictates that every time someone says something hurtful, or crippling to you, a piece of your I.L.A.C sign is broken off. If we go around hurting one another too much, then we are all left broken, with no sense of I.L.A.C. But, I’ve been too picky with the girls I want to date. Perhaps I am alone because I don’t deserve anyone beautiful, special, or intelligent. So, instead of looking in the mirror tonight and telling myself that I deserve someone great (I.L.A.C), I will go over all of the things I don’t like about myself. If I humble myself, and realize that I’m not that special, perhaps my standards, which are impossibly high, will come down and I will be more forgiving when a strand of a girl’s hair seems out of place. So, here are the things I don’t like about myself and how I will correct them:
