If you could change one thing about yourself what would it be? And why?

I would change how quickly I fall in and out of love.

...That, and I would like to be the same size I was at fourteen...

I would change how I look. I'm generally okay with my personality...whatever else. But I've always thought it must be wonderful to be pretty.

I would make it so I never had to deal with another bout with depression again.

Like every other female on the planet, I would also like to be able to wear the same jeans (clothes in general) that I could fit into at age 19.

I would stop being such a puss and actually talk to some of these fine women I see instead of just smiling like a dork. Yeah, I'm the shy guy, but enough is enough!

Brian, seriously. Give it a shot. As long as you don't shoot for someone altogether out of your league, you could end up in a wonderful relationship. Or just have a couple of really nice dates. Either way, isn't it worth it?

And if you're constantly being shot down? Stop approaching that kind of girl.

I would give up the PCOS. Seriously HATE having the screwed up ovaries, insulin problems, weight problems. It's the source of most of my frustration and fears, and the reason I have to take so damn many yucky pills.

Of course, the main reason I want it to go away is so that I can get my old figure back. Good health would be nice and all, but really it's all about being thin.

I would like to be better at socializing in groups. I'm fine with small groups of friends or just a few people, but put me in a room with a bunch of folks and forget it. I'm more likely to volunteer to help a host with setting things up than I am to actually enjoy the party.

On a lighter note, I'd like to be multi-lingual. Not just two or three languages, but five or six. Then I'd love to get a job that let me travel.
