how is 'be yourself' the worst advice?...the fact you cant be yourself is more damning and shows what you really think about yourself...which aint much if you dont think it's good enough to get with whomever...hell, that goes for more than just relationships...if you dont think you can get by in life by being yourself, you need to really do some self evaluation and make whatever changes you think you need to....like i tell people all the time: 'if you dont love you, no one will'....
I'm not saying that you can't be "true" to yourself...but your entire stance smacks of resistance to change and complacency.
Maybe you've accepted who you are...and thats fine, but all I hear from you is an ability to LEARN.

Not to where I make it obvious, but just nothing more than a head nod or "sup".
