People are greedy. We cant help it. We love attention and even crisis so long as it doesnt involve us. We want everything from the people we love and if they dont deliver, we end up angry. I do it. I know others do too. Say you send a friend a message, and they are online. But they dont reply, eventhough theyre on for hours and hours. You sit waiting and they never get back to you. It pisses you off right? I know it pisses me off... But sometimes people have reasons for doing things like that. Maybe theyre only online for a friend who theyre really, really worried about. Or someone they may not be able to talk to otherwise. I dont know. But even though people have reasons...shouldnt they think of everyone? They cant. You cant, no one can. So just cut people some slack until you have the whole story. It can save you and your friends a few possible fights.
Its these little things, like asking how you are before launching into the latest drama at school, that keep real friends together. It makes relationships work if you can just manage to squeeze that little "I love you" in every once in a while. The reason its so hard for people is that these little things to do are just so simple, we forget to do them. So we get mad, or we feel neglected or underappreciated. Communication can fix these things
Dont know why I had to write this but it just came up... Natalie
