Compromise.
Sometimes I wish certain people would not lead me on. It just vexes me when I think of all the hassle, both physical and emotional, that I could've avoided if (un)said person would just make it clear. I know sometimes the simplest things can be difficult to utter. Minute details may be missed or maybe even ignored. However, can you please give a thought to the other person. That person might be waiting for a sign. A gesture as simple as a phone call or a message might just be the symbol the poor soul is waiting for.
At times a simple 'Yes' or 'No' is greater appreciated than a 'Maybe'. I really despise ambiguity when it can be avoided. Why must you torture yourself (and me) by converting simple issues into difficult and time consuming decisions. Sometimes, solving or deciding a problem is only as simple as it's pro and cons. A smooth application of logic and a dab of imagination gets things done a whole lot more efficiently rather than trying to add that emotional ingredient into the mix.
If you don't want to do a certain task, is it really that hard to just say it aloud? If you don't feel obliged to, is anyone forcing you? If you find yourself making a promise you have no intention of keeping or even have doubts about fulfilling, SLAP YOURSELF NOW. Why make the promise in the first place? To waste my time? To waste yours?
I'm no saint. I know that. I accept that. But why is it that when I have good and unselfish intentions, something goes awry? Why does my plan keep falling apart? Sometimes, things like these happen and I start to question why I even bother in the first place.
You're lucky I'm not one for grudges.
