The Friday Five - May 2/08
This week's questions were suggested by 
alysonl. They seem to be about acts of kindness and acts of not-so-kindness on the parts of other people.
1. What's one of the nicest things a friend has ever done for you?
Taken me out for a night on the town in New York City.
2. What's one of the nicest things a stranger has ever done for you?
Offered to call an ambulance when I fell and sprained my ankle badly.
3. What is a trait in another person that you instantly admire, and that draws you to them?
That they listen to people and remember little things about them because they're genuinely interested.
4. What is a trait in another person that instantly repels you, and prevents you from forming a close relationship with them?
Showing that they're clingy and needy and are really looking for a mommy not a friend/lover or coming on too strong and talking instantly of plans they have for me because they want to control me.
5. Time to vent: tell us about something rotten someone has done to you.
Last weekend. Blocked me from leading a walking tour I was trained to lead and then dismissing me and telling me not to get upset when I suggested there was still opportunity to split the group and let me take a group of attendees out on my own. Then at the end, this same person made sure I got no credit for anything I'd done. Can you tell I'm still angry?
