some things about myself/my views on how people should act.
- people should be nice to one another. they should learn to trust each other. Some of the things i have gone through in my life would normally make people shrink into themselves, become completely inward and selfish and hateful. I don’t want to be like that, so I’m not. simple as that. I trust everyone no matter how much it can hurt me. Although there are some exclusions to that rule of mine, they are only excluded because they have hurt me selfishly or needlessly. I’m not saying go out into the city and trust every single stranger you meet, or to leave your doors unlocked and your valuables out in the open (it would be nice if we could do that, but the way today’s world is, we cannot). I’m saying that you should trust those around you. those who show you their friendship and are nice to you. Unless you have good reasons not to trust someone, you should.
- people shouldn’t go back on promises. so many people have gone back on promises they have made to me. it hurts a lot. don’t do it ^__^
- I hate how when you go out with someone they usually don’t want to be friends afterwards. yes, some circumstances you would really not want to talk to an ex after, like a bad relationship. but if it was a good relationship and you broke up because you just weren’t feeling it, like i did with one of my exes, then why not be friends afterwards? He and I had been great friends before our relationship and he had liked me for awhile, and i finally asked him out. we went out for about a month and a half and then i realized that i didn’t see him as anything more than a friend, so i decided to break up with him. After that he seemed fine, but after about a week he started being really nasty towards me. he still is… and i hate it. we had been such amazing friends and its not like we had a bad relationship, so why? the only conclusion i can come to is that he still had feelings towards me. but by now, they are gone amidst his hatred at me for breaking up with him. *sigh* such things shouldn’t happen.
- I really really really hate it when people don’t act true to themselves. when they act as though everything is fine and dandy, even if they are really hurting inside. especially when they KNOW they’re doing it. I mean yeah, if you don’t realize you’re doing something, anything, its forgivable. -BUT- if you do something such as that knowingly and willingly, it’s just wrong. It doesn’t just hurt the person whose keeping all those terrible emotions inside, it hurts those around them. more so when the person finally breaks down and lets all those negative emotions out.
- love is probably the most beautiful thing in existence. when you have true, deep love. when you know how the other person feels and they know exactly how you feel, and it keeps getting better and better and growing each and every second that goes by. when words are not enough to shackle down how deep it is… it’s simply amazing. I have had that, in the past. It has been broken, but he and I are still friends, which I am so grateful for. I wish I could go back to that with him, but I don’t think it will… I am still extremely happy that he and I can be friends still even though we’ve been through some really rough times the last few months. Most people would not be able to hold on to the remnants of a relationship, of a friendship, after what we have been through. and yet we have :] it’s been like a test for us, and we have so far emerged from the wreckage of the past quite well.
That is all i can think of, for now, on this topic. I think I will continue on it at another time in the future. Live life well, and in living well, be well. ~Pax-et-Amour, Cait.
