Subject: Thought
It's been wearing on me for awhile. Some people will just never comprehend. I want to say that we all operate on different planes of thought. It's all just very curious to me.

I could use examples from my own life, but I think it would piss people off. I'm not even sure they know that they do the things they do.

I know people who can't get past their base desires. They want to feel good and it doesn't matter. They do not know why they do the things they do. That is completely foreign to me. Not knowing why I am doing something. Everything must have a reason. In fact, it scares me to not know why I am doing something. Again, it goes back to me and not wanting to lose control.

There are also other people who are constantly flirting with the opposite sex. I don't think they know why they do it either. It's nice sometimes, but other times it's hard to understand. Why pretend you're interested in someone when you're really not? Do they ever think about that? Do they even attempt to understand how that makes other people feel? I've been told by people that I do think too much and I'm very conservative in my choices. I don't see a point in being with someone unless there is a serious future.

Then there are other people who just go through life to survive. I don't think they even have time to think on another plain. They are concerned with survival. I think that will be America's ultimate challenge, eliminate the need for people to worry about where the next meal is coming from. To me, that is the true measure of poverty. While I think about things like that, it does not consume. I hope it never does me, but it is a very real possibility that it will be part of life for the others mentioned above.

It's not so much they leave people hanging there with nothing. Sometimes they give them a relative feeling of self-confidence. What I don't understand is initiating flirting with no intention of engaging in a serious relationship. That only gets people into situations where their baser urges take over.
