Spontaneous? Um ...

I often wonder how difficult it is to deal with me. I am very regimented, I make a list for everything and it drives me crazy to be taken out of my routine. It’s hard for me to do anything without a plan. If there is no plan, than I have a hard time proceeding. In short, I lack the spontaneity gene. I’m aware of it and I’m trying to loosen up but it must be really hard to deal with me.

I don't necessarily think that lack in the spontaneity dept. makes you hard to deal with. I'm sure that you didn't lose that gene yesterday, so everyone that's close to you knows how you are. If anything, its probably slightly challenging to a more spontaneous person, but if they really enjoy you as a person...it's a fun challenge!

I can think of many other characteristics of some of my friends...heck, even myself...that would render one hard to deal with at times. But b/c they're my friends, I don't notice the level of difficulty at all.

Shoot, girl. We must be twins. I am the same way.

But I agree with LB... people close to you know how you are.

That's how it is with me. You either deal with me or don't. I have also had to learn to be flexible, but I only appreciate it AFTER the spontaneous events have taken place and I feel good about it...

Ha! I'm the EXACT opposite of you! I'm all about spontaneity!
I rarely use list and go from the top of my head! I'll have a plan but I'm willing to veer off the path as long as it gets done!

At the end of the day people know how I am so I'm sure those that are closest to you know how you are as well! Try doing something spontaneous....you just might like it! :)
