anything you're looking forward to this weekend ?

I'm not looking forward to anything in particular. Fathers day is Sunday, but I've got crap I've got to get done too.

When you're by like a beach or a lake, what do you like to do? Do you prefer to just relax or do you need to have some kind of activity? 🏖👙🏐🏊‍♂️

Depends on the lake and the season. I typically can't go by a large body of water without skipping stones on it.

How's your relationship with the sun? Do you need a lot of sunscreen when you go out? Have you ever gotten burned REALLY bad? ☀️🕶

About average. In early summer I have a limit of about an hour in direct sunlight before I burn, but by the end of August it doesn't bother me too much.

If you could live inside of your favorite movie would you? I am Legend is my favorite movie so I’d have to pass 😂😂

I don't know. Am I a main character or just some shlub in the same universe?

Which is more preferable being nice or being fair?💥

Depends on the situation. Buying a car is different than telling someone a family member died.

I'm traumatized by my loneliness. I isolated for several years and I hate not having any company. I suffer from intense feelings of loneliness basically everyday especially when I'm about to go to sleep.

That sounds like you should probably seek professional help with that. While I can relate to your feelings, I would never have said loneliness traumatized me. AskFM isn't going to be the place for help with that particular problem.

I'm jealous

Don't be. I didn't get here the easy way. It is an acquired trait, not an innate one. The first step for me was having things to do while I was alone, like meditating, that required me to be apart from others, and then scheduling a time for it daily. It not only taught me meditation, but that being alone didn't have to be unproductive OR lonely.

What books would you recommend for developing better interpersonal skills?

Dale Carnegie has a book called "How to Win Friends and Influence People" - which is pretty digestible and covers some of the rudimentary elements of effective communication is a good starting point.

What is your favorite breed of cat?

I am not big on cat (or dog) breeds. I like shorter haired ones, but an mix is fine with me.

Is there anything so precious to you that you'd risk your life for it?

I'd risk my life for a lot of things, but I would be more willing to give it up to protect my kids.
