Why do people have to say X when they actually mean Y. Why do they expect me to understand that it's a Y when they spell it out as X. Am I stupid to think that X is X and not Y when apparently it isn't.

You can't expect everyone to be like you. Come on. Let's get real. People are wired differently. It that so difficult to comprehend after a few decades of meeting humans. I don't get people at times. Especially people who claim to be oh so close to me. Knowing me for so many years does not equate to knowing me as well. Maybe ten minutes of better understanding counts more.

My heart has been big and fluffy all this while, thinking that we were finally getting each other. You just proved me wrong. I think we'll never get there. Ever. Not that I am dying to. Trust me.

mebbe you are right...if it's decades you are talking about...

and/or mebbe...it's just the mars-venus thingy...

best approach...talk it out...

nothing to lose there...
and if you say "self-respect!"...then nobody can help you...
in matters of the heart...self-respect is a very relative term...

sometime presuming takes a long route...
sometime reasoning help better
tho' ego sometime stands out...

so the best part is listen to ur heart ...u get the answer
best wishes

You will get there. Someday for sure and it will happen with the right person.

I actually suck at this love thing, so I don't know what to say. But I read 'Humbl devil' and he's right somewhere...

Take care dear.

bubbly...people will always say what they dont mean...its all a game these days.

and the only person you can be YOU with is the one whom you love...there's nothing hidden from this person

just say what you really feel from inside, man...i third humbl devil...

seriously...no point in prolonging
if you dont feel right about it. but if you do feel right then share it. at least later on you wont regret the fact that you did not try...
hmmnnn...?

yes, nothing frustrates me more than people beating around the bush. I appreciate honesty and straighforwardness, no matter how harsh it may be.

No mar-venus guy-girl thing going on here. I'm talking about a girlfriend.

HD - People are not always receptive to talking it out and hearing the truth.

Sayani - Presumptions and assumptions are the worst sort. Literally killers.

Still - Girlfriend. Girlfriend. Not guyfriend. I apologize for my vagueness.

Buzz - The key is to accept that other people may have sets which differ from yours. Some people just don't know how to do that.

Preeti - I hate the game, really.

Raaji - Correct. Me too.

Abhi - Yeah. It's just about the click. You have it or you don't.

Che - Understanding the misunderstanding to turn it round back to understanding is the frustrating bit.

Aqua - Thanks dear.

J - My tuner has broken down. Sigh.
