Compliments & Passive Aggressiveness..Work to do!

[SM34]

25 thank you for your response. Yes I need to get on the GAL and meeting new people.

I like the idea of a current events group. Never heard of it.

As far as where my family is from, I hesitated to disclose that for fear it would become the center of our analysis of me. I really dont have much of a link tovthat culture aside from some core values... such as marriage

Since the age of 3, all of my friends were british. In high school, out of an entire school of 500 people there were only a handful of middle eastern folks and they all didnt identify with their culture of origin either. I spent a month every summer in Egypt with my cousins.

From the age of 14 until college all my girlfriends were british. Then I moved here and they were american. I have never had a middle eastern gilfriend.

So I think I learned my social queues from british folks. The way they interact is vastly different to here. However, I have become less social since I moved here and that needs to change.

I need to GAL in ways that involv meeting new people as you said. I have no issue with GAL that makes me happy, I have been doing plenty of that and my attitude is positive...

Will see what I can find on the interest groups stuff, otherwise I will go back to the cooking idea.
