Some of you keep breaking things or picking fights, and I really wish that you wouldn't. But that's okay. A journey to redemption would be pointless if everyone was already on their best behavior from the start.
Exactly. Scold them, but also try to understand their point of view. Even if they shouldn't do it, they still had their own reasons. I'd like to hear them.
People more often have some unspoken or untold hurt, but... I don't think I've met anyone who's truly wanted to be alone. Maybe they don't need many, but everyone I've met.... has always needed at least one.
I like those kinds of people, too. Those with conviction shine in a way that's all their own.
I like thoughtful people, those who try their best, those who are devoted, those who are generous, those who can't help but burn with passion— Most of all, I like those who are beautiful.
[ anyone can be beautiful. everyone can be beautiful. ]
But doesn't that mean that you don't like those who are beautiful. Just that those you like become beautiful? Causation is going in the other direction.

[ and. lol. lmao. ] I know the feeling.

I don't mind it. All I do is keep going back, and eventually, they accept me.
[ or they leave because they're so annoyed. ]

[ given the premise of their job. anyway they nod! persistence is key! ]
That has worked for me too. But I don't like the part in between, when they tell me to go away or get angry.

Half the time, they're being shy.

[ headtilt. ]
You think so?

[ she nods. ]
In my experience, at least. If they hated me that much, they'd leave when I approach or try to fight me more.
no subject
[ but. hmmm. ]
Some people don't want to keep pushing when they've already told someone to go away once or twice. I don't know if that's being shy.

[ anyway, ]
Even people who don't want to be alone will have certain people they just don't like or don't want to be around.
no subject
[ not anyway. she is sooo curious. ]
Sure, but most people will tolerate you as long as they can tell you care.
no subject
Just being "tolerated" isn't the same as being liked or them being shy.

I suppose that I like smart people. I like people who care a lot and say what they think, and always do what they think is right. What about you?
