Knowing yourself, knowing others

Do you ever have it in your life where you very much so want to spend time with somebody, but they couldn't seem to care less?

Or maybe it's the opposite in your life. Maybe there is someone who is constantly trying to spend time with you, but you are doing all you can to avoid/ignore them.

Or, there's a third option. Maybe there are the above people in your life, but you are so oblivious to either, allowing you just to take things as they come.

I think all three of these options suck, but I would rather be the person in the first option. Mind you, with that option there is so much room for lies to seep through your veins. I suppose if you are the type of person in the third option there is not much that can be done in the form of communication on your part, but for those in option one it would be best to make sure you are being blunt about wanting to spend time with someone, not just assuming that they know. Those in the second option probably have it the hardest because it would definitely be difficult telling someone you don't want to be anywhere near them, though sometimes it does have to come down to that. But perhaps as the person in that second option you need to figure out why you react the way you do and possibly make some changes in your own life.

Wow...that came out a lot differently than I first thought. I have to go talk to someone ;)

haha, interesting thoughts...i have experienced all those options. And I love being blunt with people, but I must admit it's a lot easier when they don't lay a guilt trip on you.
