"i talked (or lectured, rather) a lot about the difference between emotion and logic. about my abhoration of emotion most of time because your mind likes to trick you and play games with you. most of the games going on in relationships are people on themselves, i think. it's sad that people act so quickly all the time. like they feel they have to. there are still things i'm contemplating. that i've been thinking about for years. i'll do nothing until i'm 100% certain of it. nothing that can change my life, anyways. i'll try almost anything. anything that won't harm me physically. but as far as anything that means a lot to me, i'll think about it completely until i act. not until i've felt the same for months, some times. that might seem a little crazy, but that's how i am. and i'm 100% happy with all of my decisions so far (given the information i've been given.) the only different situation to me (maybe) is if someone asks me "try this" and i know it won't physically harm me (deja vu) and most of the time, i'll try. what do i have to lose? and what's the worst that can happen? if it doesn't kill you, it'll only make you stronger. you just have to watch out when it comes to other people and their feelings and thoughts. but a big part of that is figuring out what YOU want like i said before. now it's all coming full circle and i'm repeating myself.."
body language and how you take it can be such a bad thing. what IS flirting? what is being just a good friend to someone? for a lot of people, the line is very thin. for some it's non existant. for some it's very thick. to me it's kind of intermingled. it's so hard to know what someones thinking without asking straight out and even then you may not get the whole story. it's so hard to ask or tell what's going on because it could completely give off the wrong idea. i've seen it happen many times and it's awful. you have to take everything at absolute face value. i don't think anyone really does. sometimes you just can't. people are too weird. this includes me."
