No, I stopped being a victim a long time ago, and I have never looked back!
There is a huge difference between being a true victim and allowing yourself to be victimized.

No, despite all of the gloom I tend to over look my situation. Example: things are not always as bad as they seem. My broken arm in 4-5 spots, several surgeries and plenty of steel and screws. I thought dam, it is completely useless but much to my surprise it looks almost normal on top even though I don't have feeling in my fingers. Also you can do quite a bit without full finger sensation. My movement is limited and my strength is minimal but it beats the hell out of a gimp arm. I most likely will never be able to make a full fist, golf or do some right handed sports but a person has to look beyond the bad in every situation. When a person is confronted with a dire situation they have to look beyond the initial pain. Tomorrow they move into my shoulder, x-rays and possible MRI scanning. Right now the light is green, start chopping and cutting as early as next week or as soon as my terrible cold is gone. Maybe the pain in my shoulder will off set my screwed up arm or maybe I will heal up both of them before the end of the summer. I could feel sorry for myself because I am alone most of the time with no friends near by. I would imagine though the tears will be short lived. I am the one that had an accident and nobody else was injured. I can see where having a wife would ease the burden, it is difficult alone.

Heck No! Playing the victim only victimizes me all over again.
I have come a long way to becoming a strong independent woman who is compassionate but at the same time won't put up with being abused (in any form)

Actually not anymore. I always felt bad for myself and would always put myself in the victim position, but my life was terribly depressing because I only saw the negative aspects of things. So I've grown a lot since then and I've learned to never put myself in the victim position again and that I don't need to pity myself because no matter what, somebody always has it worse than me.

That is my first inclination......hence my Yahoo name!
Not a victim........that's just the way I remind myself....
Recently I have realized that I have been more of a victimizer than a victim........I dont want to fool myself anymore......
I believe this to be true for many others as well.......of course Im not too sure who.......simply because then I would then forget that I am Not a Victim!

No, I rarely feel like I am a victim, but I do like to feel sorry for myself once in a while!

Yes...I am the victim.....but I tend to hammer back pretty hard....that's kind of why I have to be passive/aggressive.....otherwise I'd be mean as hell....I need to be more patient....many women I know think I don't have a spine when in fact its completely the oppositte...I have to restrain myself from yelling and getting "hyped-up"....I have had girls who have tried to provoke me on purpose to see me get angry and or jealous...why? I don't like it.....so I have to be non-chalant about it. Its undescribable, but I don't like being a raging monster.....I don't want to be jerk....and violence rarely solves anything.. The only time I will let my personal fury go is when I see a loved one in danger or in serious need....then the monster can come out.
