I really, really don't like it.
I don't like it when people call me perfect, amazing, awesome, or even kind, funny, smart or pretty. It's not that I can't take a compliment, I just smile, say 'thanks, you too!' or 'thanks!', depending on who gives the compliment and how I feel.
The thing that annoys me, is that I don't feel like these things fit me.
Perfect? I am far, fár from perfect. If someone calls me this, I have the feeling that with every 'un-perfect' thing I do, I let them down...
How I come to this?
Let me tell you.
Since a short while, I have a boyfriend. Yup, that's right, me, the undatable girl finally has found her first boyfriend!
But anyway. He is just the sweetest thing, and he calls me all the things mentioned above. Also, there are several others who apparently think I'm worthy of these words.
But honestly, I just think people use these words too easily: A perfect person doesn't have bad hair days, doesn't breathe heavily after going up a couple of stairs, is capable of talking Swedish fluently after half a year in the country....
And does a pretty girl have a huge nose, or does a kind person secretly dislike people? I don't know, it just annoys me....
When you read this you will probably either think: ok this is a really random text which doesn't make any sense, or: be glad that people tell you these things, and believe me, I am, but as I said, I just feel that people over-use these words, making them rather insincere in the end.
The other way around as well though: 'Oh, I HATE little kids!' 'I hate water, it doesn't taste like anything!' 'I hate my parents sometimes.'
I can't stand those kind of things: Hate is a strong word, it means you will never EVER like whatever it is you 'hate', no exception. At least, that's what hate is in my opinion. That's why I usually use the word dislike or something similar.
That was my rant on how the wordchoice of certain people annoys me, hope you feel the same way or at least understand how I'm feeling, and if not that's cool too, everyone has their own opinion right? =)
Here is a song which is rather fitting to the theme, to make this post worth posting haha:

Ok bye now!
