Being Nice
So I have decided that I think I would benefit from being a little nicer to everyone around me. Especially to my boyfriend, Johnny. I mean he is the one person that I care most about in the world. But when does being nice turn into totally annoying? When does it turn in to being fake? Or letting people walk all over you? Or being untrue to yourself? In the last 12 hours I have been doing things for Johnny that a couple days ago I probably would have made a snide comment if he had asked me to do it for him. I've been going out of my way to do nice things for him and I can't help but wonder what he is thinking about all of this. Like "Wow, she is being really nice but is a two headed monster going to show up soon?" Or, "Does she really think that her being this nice is fooling me?" Or, "She couldn't have changed overnight." Plus I'm really afraid that Johnny might take it for granted or not be appreciative of me or start to walk all over me. I guess it will just take some time to find a balance between being kind and staying true to myself. I for sure have to let all the snide comments go. If I feel like there is something that I shouldn't be doing then I can speak up but in a tactful and kind way. We'll see how this goes and I will definitely document my progress on here.
