Drew the true nature of a thing is found in the sound it makes.

a high pitched wail is untrustworthy, too childish and immature.

beware low sounds as well; they embody fear of rejection.

achieve a happy medium.

optic discretion why is it that we always have to talk about YOUR problems ... the least you can do is to have the decency to listen to me sometimes ... friendship goes both ways, it isn't something that's going to be based entirely on YOU.

friendship is a two sided relationship, where you receive and give. all you have to do is listen to me once in awhile. you can't blow me off every time i have a problem and come running when something breaks in your idealistic world.

i'm not asking too much, am i?

no reason it seems rare to find people who really care enough to listen. i think that's why i got so attached; he was honestly curious about me and everything around him. i guess that is truly the opposite of being self_involved.

we're probably all guilty of talking more than we listen at points, but i don't understand how someone can really love another if they don't take time to get to know them. i guess people take time to get to know the people they want to get to know. but how do you give someone a chance if you don't listen to them? i don't even know.

a clever disguise I always thought he was too dumb to understand me.

That he "loved" my age and beauty.

I know that's not really love, but he seemed to love me and not know me at the same time.

And since I loved him, I accepted that whatever the reason, he stayed. And now it is easier to say he didn't know me than it would be to say he knew me and didn't love me.
