A personality flaw?
Its not that I've just come to realize this, or that I necessary feel that I need to justify myself. But I'd like to explain, its more for my benefit than yours.
I don't know how to just "let things go", when things are unclear, I need clarity/closure whether negative or positive, but to leave it in the air, it just drives me insane.
For example, a situation like the one with Malcolm. I didn't follow Jeff's advice. I just, I don't know, its common courtesy to not just ignore someone. I'd never do it someone else, leave them to hang, and so I don't know how people can do it to others. And so, I continue to keep in contact ... not because I think its going to change anything but because I want them to say something. I do know enough to realize that someone isn't interested, however, I want them to say it. I want that closure.
And so, I'd really just rather be told to fuck off than to be just straight up ignored. I can "take a hint", but I think people shouldn't have to read between the lines. Whatever happened to honesty and straightforwardness?
I know I expect too much from people as a whole, because I understand its just how things go. Doesn't mean I have to accept it.
Because, being felt like you are being ignored is one of the worse feelings in the world.
