One time a thing occurred to me - what's real and what's for sale?
So in the past 6 months, in terms of new people in my life, a good majority of them don't seem to like when I ask them how they're doing.
Let me explain. Sure, the people in question are girls...and girls I have an interest in. So...when one falls sick, I become concerned...this is not really limited to girls I have an interest in, but really any of my friends. I want to know how they're doing, if they need anything, if they're feeling any better.
Sure, I allow enough time for 'feeling better' to happen. On top of that, though, apparently contacting them once a day, just to say hi, or to see if their day is going well, is a wrong move on my part? Is that truly 'obsessive'?
I thought it was smiled upon when a guy showed sensitivity...in the last 6 months or so (even dating back to last year I guess), I have been frowned upon when I ask how one is doing.
I know I can be a clingy person...I like attention. But is reciprocating attention the wrong way to go? Would it be better, say, if I were the typical guy who was just indifferent and, instead of being concerned when a lady of interest is sick, I just grunt and say "Huh, that sucks...what do you want for lunch?"
Or maybe I'm just taking interest in the wrong girls right now...or maybe I'm trying to play it like my last relationship, where I did see the person every day.
Or maybe I should just be anti-social for a bit and shy away from anybody new. Too much, too fast? *sigh* I don't know.
Oh, and for the record...Rachel and I aren't really 'boyfriend/girlfriend'...it's an...awkward situation. As stated on facebook, "It's Complicated"...I think technically, I'm able to date around...but after today, I'm not entirely sure I really want to anymore. Which, I'm sure most of you would say, is quite alright too.
Too bad I'm emotionally dependent. Yes, it's a 'Cancerian' trait.
I won't be posting for a while...busy two weeks.
