Do you ever get scared of initiating a conversation with someone because often times, s/he drops the conversation early by answering lackadaisically? Okays and fines (and other colloquial terms for those) mean more than what they really do. Of course, our intuition helps us understand these things--that our chatmate isn't really interested whether with the subject, or worse, with the person himself / herself at all.
Do you ever feel that your effort and affection are wasted? You show that you care, but you don't get the same treatment. Remember, we accept the love we think we deserve (Chbosky, c. 1999). If we think we deserve more because we really give our attention, then we should seek for the same, because after all, it's also going to be tiresome if we don't receive. Aside from learning how to give out love, we should also let it come in. (Albom, c. 19..) (I'm using love = attention, because love might be a really big word and responsibility.) Do you ever feel the need to drop somebody down but can't do so because there's certain something in you that believes everything can be restored in time? Hope is alive.
My thoughts kill me softly. 😢
