Questions ?

So today I got this e-mail from a friend that came from a friend that came from a friend..yada yada yada... The gist of it is you answer all these questions about yourself (43) and send it off to that person and any other folks you might want to torture. Then I guess you wait and when it comes back you find out all these things about the person you didn't know ...OK that's cool, but maybe those are not the questions you want to ask them or even answer yourself. As for me I've always had a problem with answering and asking questions. I feel like I'm invading that persons privacy or putting them on the spot ...OK so I'm projecting . I feel like I'm on the spot when questioned, not sure why as most questions people ask are pretty benign but I get all butterflied when it happens none the less. So I try not to put myself in a position to question or be questioned. Not good for a variety of reasons...It makes me look awkward and generally I'm a fairly confident person, so awkwardness does not become me and makes me look somewhat shady, but that is so not the case as I am usually very straight forward, except when it comes to women I really like. Then I fall apart. My ears get all hot and I can't say the things I want to because I could be reading the situation the wrong way, or the right way and I don't want to mess up a good thing... and on and on and on... As I stated before in "Smiling Face" I do have a tendency to over analyze ...We all know that's just garden variety fear of rejection. So what's the worst that could happen ? My feelings/ego bruised ? Oops..Off on a tangent again. Where the hell am I going with this? Oh yeah... Questions... So anyway, I do have this one friend who can ask me anything and by some other worldly power she possesses I am compelled to answer all and anything she asks so of course she is the one who sent me the e-mail...(thanks Sara). All in all it was pretty painless and it would be great to know more about the folks in my life I care about. I just wish all questions were as easy as this to answer and I was a little more courageous when they're not...
