i'm glad i'm the person that i am now.
it keeps me from getting hurt. i never fully trust anyone,
even if i do give them some control of my emotions,
i always know the consequences, and i never expect to be too far off.
and when i'm disappointed, i'm prepared to take it. people have been
coming and going from my life recently, so quickly that i forget they were even there. once they prove themselves as morons, they don't exist to me anymore.
i fool people by making them think they've fooled me, so i can continue an investigation of a person's behavior. am i crazy? i don't know. i'm absolutely fascinated by some individuals' confidence level and arrogance, and how much they think they can actually get away with, without being spotted. yet has it to happen that any one person i study stops doing what is obviously hurtful to someone else by their own will. it's all an overabundance of pride and selfish habits. some probably don't even realize what they're doing until someone else lets them know. that's how wrapped up everyone is in themselves, and it's a shame when a good friend/bf/gf gets fucked over by a lying son of a bitch.
There's nothing like eavesdropping to show you that the world outside your head is different from the world inside your head.
