Words that people don't mean but blurt out anyway made me hang onto them for days or weeks before I finally forget about it altogether.

I AM one of those 'intense' people :D 2. Having just attained my quarter of a century on earth, I am feeling intensely...OLD...and...errrrr....like I've been round the track a couple of times? *sigh* But what I'm really trying to say is: I've been in your shoes. When bad things happen (especially when they happen not to me, but to people I care about) I get angry. Really, really angry. I-could-so-turn-into-The-Hulk-right-now kinda angry. So I get pissed off, start venting (I sometimes rage too, but only for a good cause, such as when I found out my friend's then parter was cheating on her) and then all hell breaks loose. And yes, people have been known to comment "Why are you taking it so seriously anyway, it's not like it's happening to you?" on numerous occassions. The answer? Because I care for and about you, you noob!!! (I am sure you feel the same about your brothers, that is, the caring bit, NOT the noob bit :P As for whether to take a certain issue seriously, I think Anon's advice is on the money. You've gotta pick your battles. And yes, having experienced and inflicted it first-hand, I know that having an intense temperament does not a calm household or a hiccup-free friendship make. But what the hey, sometimes our emotion/ indignation does overcome us and burst the boundaries of propriety/ decorum and all that jazz. So, if you think it's something worth fighting for/ about, then by all means, break out them (metaphorical) boxing gloves! I still commend you for your concern regarding your brothers and their upbringing (or lack thereof?) and definitely, forge ahead with the self-discovery! Take care and it's always a pleasure to read your blog. No I don’t do psychology, but I picked it as an elective in 2nd year, does that count? *grins*
