I'm returning to this web site for a degree of soothing, since it was recently pointed out to me that I may be a tad arrogant... (sigh) So, let me number the reasons why I am a Heartless Bitch. I'll take the liberty of dividing it into categories.
Career:
1. Yes, I do my job. In fact I do it so well, that often I'm left with little to do. So don't whine to me when you have to work late for a few nights, after I've offered to take some of your workload. (Of course you couldn't hand it over to me because I might do it better, and it would be wrong to whine about that.)
2. I'm not going to apologize for my views on life. Just because I don't subscribe to the same belief system as you doesn't mean that I'm automatically wrong. (As a further point to discussion, just because I have different parts than you doesn't mean I'll automatically be offended by certain graphic material that you show, snickering all the while, to those with the same parts as you.) So get over it.
3. Right - I'm female, I'm young, and I'm pretty damned successful. So when I'm feeling on top of the world because I just bought a house, got a raise at my job (a big one), and do whatever the hell I want, I really don't think it's because I have managed to use my feminine whiles... It's because I'm really fucking good at what I do.
4. I fuck up, I admit it. I fuck up, you let me know. I don't fuck up often, or the same way twice. You fuck up, you try to cover your ass. You try to point the blame away from yourself. Then you take more than your own share of glory. Don't get pissed off at me when I try to find out what really happened. And also don't try and sweet-talk me into altering my report.... you don't have the class.
[As a footnote to this inspiring work-related rant, let me point out that I am the sole female in a very male-dominated company.]
Love:
1. No, you can't have my phone number. And I don't want yours. It was fun, but you're as sharp as the edge of town, and I don't really want to get to know what there is of your mind... trust me... I've grasped it already.
2. I really am quite happy as a single and childless woman. I really don't understand the maternal instinct or the biological clock, and know that I'm not alone in feeling this way. So I'm not looking for that great guy who's out there waiting for me to come along. If he shows up, great. If he doesn't, fine. Meanwhile, I'm loving my life.
3. For the gods' sake, do what you say you're going to do. You're letting yourself down more than you are me.
4. Giving you head is not the be-all and end-all of my existence. You'll live without it. However, if you did give me more than a cursory lick before you begin poking and humping, you might get some more consideration.
5. For gods' sake don't whine! I'm not your mother, and if you're sick nurse yourself. Give and take is big with me. Just "take" isn't.
6. Don't ask me how many men I've been with. You don't want to know the answer. If you're a shitty lover, an ungenerous friend, or someone who doesn't keep promises, you'll join the list. Otherwise, you'll just have to accept being the last in it.
People:
1. Don't tell me that you failed to live up to your words because of your family problems/pet's death/emotional struggles. If you mean it, do it. If you don't, then don't make it a promise.
2. I will treat you and myself honestly. You will always know where you're at with me. Do the same.
3. I feel no need to tell you my stories until I feel that they won't be spread. So don't feel neglected if I play things close to my chest for a while... I want to know that I won't be betrayed.
Politics:
1. Your actions are your own. I don't feel that I should pay for them. If you can work... work. Don't rely on my taxes to keep you in school or on welfare because you don't want to face responsibility.
2. My actions are my own. I will not feed off of the people who contribute, I will not harm the weak, and I will not subsidize them. If I do wrong, punish me. If I do right, reward me.
3. The concept that "It's society's fault" is a crock. And, it's not lack of family values or the new world order. Take responsibility for yourself. I won't, and no one else should have to.
