Who do you idolize?

i think you take looking up to someone too seriously.

i look up to alanis morrissette because she just does her own thing and doesn't care what people say. she's brave and goes through dramatic changes and just lives life to it's fullest without worrying about her mistakes. she learns from them, but doesn't regret things that go wrong - just learns.

me saying this points out some of the things about her that i like - and that i've changed about myself, because they're characteristics that i think everyone should have. looking up to someone doesn't mean that you have to wear their clothes, or your hair like them, or talk like them, or act like them - you just take bits of people that have good characteristics to better yourself...

relax, buddy... whew.
No, I don't think you're getting it. I have no desire to be like anybody else at all.

The way I see it, everybody has flaws. Your friends are the ones who see through those flaws and accept you, or just deal with them because they like you. I don't want to change any of my flaws, because then I'd be changing who I am, and I don't want to do that.

Give me one person I should try to be even slightly more like and why.
me - but with me saying that i'm not saying i want you to start wearing my clothes or doing anything else different than the way you are because you're... kind of up tight about who you are.

example... i like chocolate cake, but it's the only cake i've ever had. i like it so much and i'm SO HAPPY with it that i don't even want to try vanilla, even though i may like it even more.

you're so caught up with yourself that you've become close minded in what you could do to make yourself better... a bit more relaxed and comfortable and confident in yourself enough to look at something and say,"yeah, i like her. she's cool... i wish i could be as open as her..." is very sexy. you're not compromising who you are as an individual, you're just able to say that and not feel like you are. i guess i'm trying to say confident enough to be able to change into something you think is cool instead of being a brick wall unable to change.

i mean look at your posts... you're like attacking me in a regular conversation because you're so uptight about who you are. you are cool, but you can always better yourself, even a tiny bit. i don't mean to offend, so please don't bite my head off again like you have been.
I've tried changing before, and it didn't get me anywhere. Yes, I am closed-minded. That's one of my flaws. But I accept that, and my friends accept that, and I'm fine with that.

And the only reason I bit your head off is because you generalized me and everybody else who said they don't idolize people by saying we have boring lives and have no desire to make myself a better person.

In a way, this contradicts what I've said, but I do want to make myself a better person. I just don't want to do it by being like somebody else. I want to make myself a better person by adopting the qualities that I think will make me a better person, not by adopting qualities that people who others say are better people than me have.

Say, I start being less sarcastic. I am a very sarcastic person, and tend to insult people by doing that. I'm not gonna become less sarcastic because somebody else is. I'm gonna become less sarcastic because I want to stop insulting people.
sorry to say it, but anything you do to better yourself - be it stop being so close minded (which is something you should change - not just accept because you're going to have a really boring life this way) or being less of an ass by not being so sarcastic to insult people - someone has done it before you. it seems like you want to better yourself, but you want to do it yourself without someone saying "HE DID IT BECAUSE OF ME!" which is ok... but why do you care?

you've already shown you don't care what people think, but yet you care if someone knows you changed because of them? why would that bother you? no one is better than you, no one is better than me, and no one is better than anyone posting or reading on the internet right now... so what's it to you? why would you care? better yourself and do things that you want for you, not to be something you think is cool to people.

and yes, you did contradict yourself very much. people that don't look up to someone, even for the slightest things, like wanting to be more charismatic or whatever, i think that's sad. everyone has room for improvement - even me, and i'm confident and secure enough with myself that i can say that.

i'm not a brick wall trying to yell and scream to make myself look bigger, and if someone came by and had a quality that could make me be more how i want to be, i wouldn't be too insecure to not be able to say thank you to them.

sarcasm makes some people who they are - i'm very sarcastic, but you won't ever see my making fun of someone. i stand up for anyone - even people i dislike, if someone is treating them wrong. maybe another way you could improve yourself is by being someone people confide in and look up to for being an awesome guy to have around them in case someone messes with them, other than some *censored.1.1* people want to be around them because they can crack jokes and make suicidal people more depressed.

Yes, you're right, I'll never be the first to better myself in any way, but just because somebody else did it, doesn't mean I'm doing it because of them. Sticking with my sarcasm example, let's say I've never met anybody less sarcastic than me. There are people out there who are, I've just never met them. If I make myself less sarcastic, were they my inspiration? No, I didn't even know they existed.

As for me caring if people say I changed because of them, I will change because of people. Does that mean I'm changing to be more like them?

Let's say Jim tells me I need to be more sarcastic, because I'm hurting his feelings. But Jim is even more sarcastic than me. By being less sarcastic, I'm becoming less like him. But I still changed because of him, right?

And you keep saying I'm not admitting my problems, but I am. I'll rattle off a hundred problems I see with myself. Will that make me a better person? If I say, "Gee, Nedrian is a lot smarter than me.", am I idolizing you? No, I'm admitting that you're better than me in some way, which I will gladly do.

I will change because of somebody, I will change in a way that will make me more like them, but I will not change to be more like them.

Also, what the hell does that last sentence mean? Are you saying people only like me because I'm an ass, and that I lead people to suicide? Because that's pretty much the only way I can interpret it.
 
seriously, some of you may think this is a cutesy little topic to post random crap and see how many times you can quote before someone gets annoyed, but there are some people here who actually think this is a cool topic and don't want it closed. stop the crap.

i think it's easier to say you're editting yourself with a quality that makes you be more like the person you want to be... which is sexy. <3

i don't think sarcasm is a bad quality at all - but i don't like making people feel stupid with it. =*( i'm too nice i guess, lol.

Exactly. I change who I am to be who I want to be, not to be who somebody else is. I guess, basically, the only person I idolize is myself, the way I want to be. If I could change myself to exactly who I wanted to be, I'd be my own idol. I'm not gonna get a haircut because I want to look like somebody else, I'm gonna get a haircut because that's how I want myself to look.
