Signals?
For all of you who know me, you know very well that I am afraid of committment. So, whenever some person sparks my interest I go crazy because I may like someone, but never want to know the other person's opinion of me. It's not that I don't want to know because I think they may not feel the same way...It's actually the complete opposite, I'm afraid they might feel the same way. Because of this "relationship phobia," I have never had someone I could truly call my boyfriend. If someone catches my eye and is a little special to me, I immediately think of a billion different reasons why nothing would ever work just to be able to put it out of my mind. Lately I've been dealing with the whole trauma all over again, and I am ready to throw in the towel once again in order to keep myself from the troubles that crushes/relationships bring. Why is it that the closer you become to someone as a friend...the more you like them as a person in general and enjoy spending time w/them...and why does one then become attracted to the other person? Why can't we all be just friends, or just want to be "just friends?!"
The other problem that occurs is that people get the wrong signals from me all the time and take my niceness (if that's a word) as flirting. This leads to thinking that I have feelings for the other person when in fact I don't. When did being nice and enjoying members of the opposite sex's company turn into flirting and "wanting" people? Again, why can't we all just be friends?
