Predictable vs. Unpredictable
Predictability = boring, mundane, dreary, unexciting, monotonous, uninspiring, and just plain DULL.
You know I'm so right... Personally I feel that predictable people are boring. After you've figured them all out what else is there? Unpredictable people on the other hand, give you something new to learn (about themselves) every single day. You know how people (mostly self-improvement and/or management gurus) say learning is a lifelong process, and how you should always equip yourself with more knowledge to be a better person or a more effective manager or some crap like that? Well, in a way, I'm actually helping you to be a better person. This is of course assuming that I'm the unpredictable one.
Predictable people have routines. You can learn it by heart by just observing that person for a week (7 full days.. not just weekdays..) and with that information you can do just about anything. Break into their house, steal their identities, plant surveillance equipment... (I've been watching Chuck - Season 1 DVDs back-to-back) so imagine if you were a spy, and predictable. It just wouldn't work. In fact, you'd probably fail the personality test and they'd so not hire you in the first place. Unpredictable people on the other hand, are a shoo-in for a career in espionage. Provided they can detect a strong sense of loyalty or patriotism in you. If you're a loyal person in nature, but your patriotism levels are iffy, they'd still accept you because let's face it, patriotism can be brainwashed into you. Loyalty not so much.
So let's analyse relationships shall we?
Relationship #1 - Predictable + Predictable
What happens when you put two boring people in the bedroom? Nothing. Or at the very most, nothing much. The couple lives in domestic bliss... free of fights or arguments, always giving in to each other, probably the only argument they have are the "you go first" kinds, peacefully resolved through a fair and democratic system. I don't know... maybe they keep a ledger as to who went 2nd the last time so that the next time it's be his/her turn to go first. Number of heart-racing moments: 0
Relationship #2 - Predictable + Unpredictable
Either one of the following will happen: the Predictable one leaves the Unpredictable one because he/she feels like they can't keep up with their partner, or the Unpredictable one cheats on the Predictable one because he/she is bored, and then proceed to leave the Predictable one because they're bored out of their minds. Either way they're going to split up. For good. No turning back kind of break-up. No rujuk-rujuk. Number of heart-racing moments: too many for the Predictable one, not enough for the Unpredictable one.
Relationship #3 - Unpredictable + Unpredictable
Match made in heaven, or time bomb waiting to explode. Do I really need to elaborate on this? You're all clever people... and my wrists are starting to hurt. The key to making it work? Tolerance. Of which we both have plenty of for the other. So there will always be days when I annoy the hell out of you, and there are plenty more days when you annoy the hell out of me (hence A Annoying Man -- annoying but incredibly patient with me, of which I will forever be grateful for) but somehow we always find it in our hearts to be the bigger person, and to forgive the grumpus within. And that's why I'm so good for you. I make it oh so exciting....
