Hi,
I've always been an observer. Perception is one of my strengths. But I hate having the spotlight focused on myself. I'm 47, married (for a long time) with two kids and just hit the five year mark at my current job. I'm in tech so it's usually the company that leaves before I do. From the outside I've been viewed as intense, greatly organized and balanced. I try to explain that is how I cope and that it's like a tornado on the inside. I'm self diagnosed, a month or so ago. It was a blessing, a moment of self enlightenment where my world finally made sense.

I'm both a great cynic and a strong believer in people. Any time I can help someone is a great pleasure.

Now that I've made my Miss America speech for world peace, can we please move on to the swimsuit competition?

Aren't those technically opposites?

U found out about it at 47? Damn. And i thought i was late at 28.

I also hate the spotlight, or when someone is giving me attention while others are watching it.
Welcome.!
