I identify with her because I share her foolishness in that thinking because I grew up pretty, everyone WAS looking out for me and trying to be genuine simply *because* everyone always told me I was special or different because of it. Being pretty is a curse as much as it is seen as a blessing to others.

She *was* 12 and her parents (while noble) shielded her from the evils of the world. Throwing her sister under the bus was pretty bad but I think she wised up quickly when her own direwolf was killed.

Holy cripes... thank you for this. Sansa annoyed me at the beginning too but you can see from her POVs she's really growing and her grace and ability to shut her mouth has enabled her to last this long while in Lannister control. Do you think if they captured Arya she would still be alive? No. Intelligence is seeing…

In regards to the Julia Roberts story... I had a long time boyfriend cheat on me. I lived with him and slept with him the morning he told me how much he loved me and when I came home that night I found that other woman in bed with him. She was married. They ended up getting married but from mutual friends that man…

You're more funny than I anticipated. And I was being more sarcastic than anything.

Do you expect everyone you meet to greet you with sunshine and rainbows?

Just as a counter point... a smart, young, healthy woman with a desire for her own sexuality killed herself because of other people?

I can get deeply depressed. I logically understand it's a chemical imbalance in my brain (thanks Dad for your genetics) and I've *thankfully* never been to the point as this young lady. Even in the midst of my depression I understand that people might not realize how their words affect me and I'm not angry at them.…

I loved your comment but this example in particular:

Several years ago, in the part of Italy I lived in, the Italians would hold anti-American gatherings/protests at McDonald's. Now I understand that a franchise isn't the same as corporate and all of that jazz... it was still hilarious.

SPOILERS FROM THE END OF BOOK 3... and possibly 5 (the current season is just at midway from book 3).

I blame my ex as well. I was a student athlete and always loved running (still do) but I had a serious relationship with a guy when I was 21/22 and he repeatedly teased me about not smoking as he did. One night I was tired of his crap and tried to smoke a cigarette and it made me sick. But he kept asking me to smoke…

I know a beautiful Spanish woman that has a small diamond in her left incisor. It drew attention but no one ever mistook it for a cavity or anything less than being pretty and sparkly. I believe there is a right and a wrong way to do things. I don't know the long term effects but on her bright white, straight teeth…

high five.

I tend to be a very sarcastic person in general. I don't wish the other responder any stress or real annoyance (not saying I even have that power). I had to dismiss and/or address several comments from that same person in a row in a conversation that clearly showed me admitting my own mistakes and moving forward.

He has creepy little satan balls that drag on the flooooor! It's like the Snuggle Bear and this thing had a baby:

I think you mean gaslight.

You have nothing to apologize for. Sometimes I get lazy and skim over partial/whole sentences.

Ha! I think it's over the top and cheesy!! ;). But I would buy MP3s of Jeremy Irons reading phone books or lists of ingredients on medicine.

I guess, in my mind, I'm anticipating the day Sansa turns him down for real and he can't fool himself enough to believe she doesn't mean it. Not only does she have the memory of her mother to live up to (and surpass) she has a lifetime of unrequited love on the part of Baelish.
