Discuss [nt] posted by Diarmuid on July 18, 2000 at 12:30:32: No kidding. My ex is a five wing four, and the crabbiest mofo alive. Every little thing gets to him, it got to be so exhausting after four years. Every time I dropped something in another room he'd freak: "What was that???????", always afraid I'd wreck something of his, which I often did (not on purpose). It was as if he'd never been taught the whole "don't cry over spilled milk" thing. I don't know why this is. Maybe it's just thinking too much, not acting enough. Moving forward in action tends to lessen the degree to which small things bother you, and I think fives are often mired in the past and the future, which prevents moving forward in positive directions. Just my opinion.
