Introductions - any three things about you

[265]

1) I'm a man
2) I'm not good looking
3) I can fix a computer

 

[2xblended]

1- I adore animals and have never lived without at least 1 fur baby.
2- I lost my fiance (who was my best friend before we got together) to cancer.
3- I've lost 2 of my closest friends to suicide. I feel tremendous guilt around this daily.
4- I feel like the dumbest person alive at all times

 

[Married2019]

1) this is my first time writing anything on tattle and I'm scared now
2) im 28 and live with my husband and two dogs- no kids yet but soon hopefully!
3) my younger brother has an intellectual disability and I'll stand up for him and mind him unquestionably for the rest of my life.

 

[Belulah]

1. I was totally lost before I had my little girl, she was the making of me and I truly believe she was sent to me to save me.
2. I really love my job and I think for the first time I’m starting to be really good at it!
3. My twin sister is the love of my life- she will always be the person I want to spend time with and share my good and bad news with! I adore her!

I’ve gone for positive things as I failed my driving test this week and have been in a grump since Tuesday but I have some great things in my life!

 

[DCICassieStuart]

1) I can name all fifty US States and all fifty State capitals

2) I wear red lipstick pretty much everyday

3) I've got very bendy fingers - see photo

 

[FuzzyWuzzyWozABear]

Hello I joined this forum today, thought this thread might be a good place to start

1. I’m a stage 3 cancer survivor (15 years later, still going strong)
2. At 45 I retrained as a sports coach after being in office jobs since I was 18
3. I get frustrated with people who don’t ”get me”. I’m highly organised and strive to do my best, this seems to make some people think I’m “little miss perfect“ when nothing could be further from the truth. The sly little digs get me down occasionally.

 

[tskiry56]

1. I’m a twin and was born 11 weeks early. I had a brain haemorrhage and a collapsed lung.
2. I’m incredibly proud of myself for leaving my abusive ex and being happy.
3. I bruise incredibly easy.

 

[Be creative]

1. I’m in a job that pays the bills, but not my “passion”. Never have managed to find my “passion” and hope one day it shows its beautiful head so I can focus on it.

2. I’m 31 and single as a Pringle. I was totally fine being single for a while, but with Covid, I’m genuinely getting freaked I’m gonna end up alone forever. It’s also somewhat depressing when all your friends are coupled up or moving forward with families etc and I’m just stuck. Never seen to be changing.

3. I can be a terrible procrastinator at times, for literally no reason. On the other hand, I can be super efficient at other times. There is no rhyme or reason to it.

 

[CarrieW24]

1. I very rarely sleep more than 4 hours a night. I just don’t need a lot of sleep.
2. I co-wrote a song that was a top 10 hit in the late 00’s.
3. I have been shot at.

Ok, did anyone else have a progressively more dramatic sequence of reactions reading that: 1. omg, 2. OMG 3. O. M. G!

*picks jaw off floor

 

[Quattro formaggi]

1. I have a very poor demeanour I am perceived as too serious or nervous even when I’m neither of those Which makes it hard to socially so I tend not to bother a lot of the time ( but enforced now by covid)
2. I have a really boring office job I hate and I’m Struggling to move on from it. I am 45 and age is against me now.
3. I had breast cancer 4 years ago but made a complete recovery and avoided having to have chemo so I was quite lucky really

 

[Medusah80]

1.I think l am autistic
2.l love hiking
3.l’ve had 3 unsuccessful rounds of IVF, have 2 frozen embryos but petrified of trying again in case it fails

 

[idk2]

1) I read alot, sometimes more than 120 books a year. But absolutely no one in my life knows! I usually read on my phone/iPad. I'm not sure why but I feel the books I choose to read are so telling, not that anyone will figure that out. If I'm single, I read a lot of chicklit and romance. If I'm going through some shit, I read a lot of thriller etc. Theres really no need for it to be a secret but I like keeping it to myself now.

2) I'm worried I will never find someone to spend my life with! No one I've met thus far is on my wavelength and I seem to find flaws in everyone I talk to which is horrible to say. I also have yet to meet someone who's on my intellectual level which sounds so snobby but some men really cant hold a good debate/conversation while having a pretty face? It's shockingly sad. I'm always compromising then having to break it off because the r/s is doing nothing for me.

3) I'm a skinny bitch who's lifelong mission is to put some meat on my bones. Nothing is working thus far.

 

[super grateful]

1. I have lived in Cyprus, Hong Kong, Brunei, Germany, America, Canada, England, Ireland, Qatar and Gibraltar

2. I am waiting for the day I have enough money to finish my house reno, rent it out, take a career break and work in Ghana for a good while (an amazing 3 month volunteer experience in 2017 won’t leave my mind!)

3. Besides my partner (does he count?) I actually have 0 friends. I get on well with work colleagues but never enough to progress to “outside of work friends”, I struggled at uni to make friends and have no friends from school. People often tell me how funny and kind I am () so I don’t understand what I do wrong. I tell myself I enjoy my own company but to be honest I’d quite like a bit of a social life

 

[under the ivy]

I love stuff like this!
1) I’m doing a PhD researching juvenile arthritis and I’m really proud of myself. I left school with nothing, managed to get a degree and I want a career in health policy research one day.
2) I’m obsessed with white chocolate/salted caramel. Anything with that on it, I’m all over.
3) I’m learning to drive!

 

[Jg182]

1) My dog is my best friend, and honestly the love of my life, she’s got me through some rough years... and I sometimes wonder if I prefer her then my husband
2) we are starting IVF soon
3) I’m 32 and still have no idea what I wanna be when I grow up!!

 

[Mulholland Drive]

1. Bit of an IT nerd (which is good because that's been my chosen career path for the last x number of years, and as such I have no friends, )
2. South African by birth, and a happy-go-lucky-non-woke lesbian
3. I love easy-going forums like this. Like a standalone jewel in a crown of awful yukiness (former Digital Spy member)

 

[Platypusfattypus]

Ooh I like these kind of threads.

Im Platypus and three things about me are

1. I know all the words to boom boom shake the room

2. I have a pet snail called Elvis

3. I have a real fear of zombies. Especially one's that run like in 28 days later

 

[tskiry56]

1. Genuinely think I’m depressed but not done anything about it. It’s mainly due to infertility and I can’t see meds helping that.

2. I thought I wouldn’t like Tattle but find myself here everyday and think it’s great! Been a great distraction this year

3. I’m ridiculously scared of spiders. I put peppermint oil over the entire house during this time of year and drive my husband mad. Even bought plugins that are supposed to make them go away (they don’t work). Horrible wiggly little shits

Please go and see someone or speak to the doctors about depression. It’s nothing to be ashamed of. Mental health is so important to your physical wellbeing.

 

[Bingewatcher92]

1. I lost my soul mate to suicide last year.
2. I don’t feel like I have a purpose in life anymore.
3. I have Asperger’s syndrome

 

[Mum.est2014]

1. I very rarely sleep more than 4 hours a night. I just don’t need a lot of sleep.
2. I co-wrote a song that was a top 10 hit in the late 00’s.
3. I have been shot at.
