I find it very hard to deal with people who try to "fix" me
I've accepted that parts of me will always be a little broken, why can't other people see that.....and love me anyway.

3. also self centred. maybe they think if they fixed a part of you, it would help their life
but they dont see that whatever is a bit broken, is still part of you.

8. People who feel the need to "fix" others are low self-esteem asswipes
I probably shouldn't call them asswipes since they already have low self-esteem, but that's what they are.

11. No, leave the 'asswipes' in there.
Sometimes a twist of the knife will help shake them out of their stupor. :P

12. Everybody is a bit "broken" it's part of human nature.
If one likes or loves a person, then one should realise that one likes/loves the whole person, broken bits and all. If one removes the broken bits, one removes some of the person.
