Question;
If you decided you needed to go to the store, and then you announced to someone, "hey, I am going to the store!" would you then act like you were going to the store? Would you go and walk, get on the bus, get in your car, and take action in going to the store? Or would you stand around and do other things, and further confuse the people you announced your decision to? What if in annoucing that you were going to the store, you promised another person to take them with you, and to get them something? Then you never took action in going to the store, would you understand why that person might be mad at you for doing other things, the whole time promising to take them to the store?
All of this seems common sense when I ask the question simplistically like this using the symbol of store, but what if we insert the word love?
What if you decided you were in love with someone, then you announced to people, "Hey, I am in love with this person!" Would you then act like you were in love with them? Would you try and get your silly shit together in order to be able to act upon that love? Or would you busy yourself with other things, other people, and further confuse the people you just announced your love to? What if you told the person you were in love with that you were in love with them? Then you never took the action of being in love with them, being with them, getting yourself together to be with them, because isn't tat what makes it all so great, that when you are in love with someone you want to be with them? Would you understand if after you told that person you were in love with them, but then continued to waste your time with fooling around with other people, could you understand them being really really mad with you?
Well, all the answers still seem common sense to me, but for others I guess it's not.
Have any of you seen the movie "High Tension"? Well if you have you will understand my next staement;
I totally sympathize with the blond chick in that movie.
