I'm a Heartless Bitch because I'm true to myself. I know what I want and how to get it, using intelligence and initiative, not mammary glands. I have a lot of respect for the quiet people who get things done, and even people who bitch and get things done, but none for complainers who aren't willing to put in the work required to change their situations.
I don't do drama or jealousy, and I abhor the words "should" and "whatever". I say, make a decision and quit worrying about what you "should" do. I'm much more tolerant of people that really aren't particularly bright than bright people who choose to remain ignorant.
I take responsibility for my own mistakes, not for others' mistakes, and I know the difference. I won't ask anyone to do something I'm not willing to do myself, and I won't say anything about anyone that I'm not willing to say to their face. I'm aware of how my actions affect other people and prefer to be around people that are similarly aware, however hard they are to find.
I think if you don't stand up for yourself no one will. I once declined a fourth date from a man who I really liked and looked great on paper because he stood me up. He may not have been near a phone, but I think he could have found one if properly motivated. Clearly he was not. I'm just glad he was considerate enough to do it so early in our relationship so I didn't waste too much time on him.
I don't think it's necessary to be rude, petty or revenge-seeking to stand up for yourself. Generally, calm, clear and decisive work much better. Cold bitch is always better than crazy bitch.
I think the most important thing you can teach a child is self-reliance, not because you can't count on anyone else, but so you don't have to.
The term Heartless Bitch is really another way of saying intelligent, logical, decent human being with a spine-- and that's what I am.
