VALIDATE ME!

I've come to the conclusion that I don't have any real issues. My only issue is that I have issues only so that others are encouraged to talk me out of those issues. Pay attention to me! Love me! Tell me I'm good and ever so smart! Grade me, evaluate me! Praise my potential!

You know, I don't think I'd be friends with me. I'd be so irritated by my fascination with myself that I would be jealous that I am not paying attention to me because I am so focused on myself that I don't hang out with me anymore.

There must be a doughnut in this house somewhere...
