Another idea of perfect happiness is when you’ve learned to put yourself before others, always love yourself first before you go looking for someone else's love. __2.__What is your greatest fear?

What this means is when your in a situation when something bad happens to you because you are unlucky, not because you did anything wrong. __3.__What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?

My greatest regret is cheating on my ex girlfriend Sierra. Stuff happens and you have to go through things to get to things, Life goes on. It’s like a life lesson, I know what to do next time and what not to do next time I commit to being in another relationship. I’m kind of happy we’ve separated and went our own ways because everything started to change. Don’t get me wrong I know I was wrong for cheating on her, but we actually got back together and then she cheated on me. Our trust and loyalty in each other was just so messed up we had to seperate and worry about ourselves. __34.__How would you like to die? I would like to die in my sleep.
