Expect nothing and disappointments will be close to nil. Expect too much and frustrations will haunt you.
Trust is, was, will be an issue with me. Not really the other person's fault. Well, not entirely. It also doesn't mean that I think the other person is lying. It's just me, doubting. Which is me, not trusting. Ain't that right?
And my God this is really making me frustrated. Pardon me.
But I believe I have improved. I have become better, I'd say mature.
I used to be the "don't talk to me when I'm mad" person or simply put, someone who suddenly shuts up when upset. Yes, I just zip my mouth. A worst case scenario would be my walking out. Yes, I walk out.
But recently, nah, make it, sometimes, I am more patient. Please put emphasis on more. Yes, I CAN be patient. And yes, I can start talking again after a few minutes of shutting up. This I learned because I know of someone who will tolerate my shutting up, because he, irritatingly, also does not talk. But he has changed, thank God. He talks though I do not really reply to him. And yes, I've changed too. No, I still shut up but yes, after a few minutes or so, I already talk. Yes, I talk. And this was a conscious decision because if I do not, I will just burden myself with thinking over unsettled issues that could have been settled if we just talked.
And yes, now, I realize the importance of communication. Yes, I do. I hope I do. :)
