Questions running through my mind…randomized

1. Why is it that when a woman tells a man how she feels, he accuses her of being psycho? Do they think that will stop us from telling them how we feel? Or does it make them feel better to attack our mental health when we call them on the carpet for something?

2. Why is it that when a homeless person asks you for money so they can buy food, and you tell them you don’t have any money but you’ll gladly share your food with them, they ask you what kind of food you have and if it’s something they don’t like they turn it down? If someone is starving, wouldn’t they be grateful for any type of nourishment they can get?

3. Why is it that people get on an uncrowded elevator, push the button for one of the top floors, and then stand in the middle by the front? Why can’t they move to the back if their stop is last? Or why can’t they get off the elevator so the people needing to get off don’t miss their floor? And why do they look at you like you’re crazy when you say excuse me please?

4. How can someone love another so deeply and then decide that they give up and don’t want to work on repairing whatever part of the relationship needs repaired? Does that mean that they never loved the person to begin with? Don’t relationships take work no matter how much the people love each other?

5. Why would a woman say to a man “I love you with my head”? Does that mean that she doesn’t love him with her heart? Is it possible to love someone with your head and not your heart?

6. Why do men shower a woman with compliments and attention and affection, and then she sleeps with him and he tells her he just wants to be friends or ignores her? Don’t men realize that if they’re honest with a woman and tell them beforehand what they want, they’re more likely to reap better benefits?

7. Why are women so catty to each other? Why do we compete with each other? Why can’t we respect the sisterhood? Why do we say we respect other women but then in the next breath say something demeaning about another woman?

8. Why is there no happy medium when it comes to sexuality? Why is it that people are either completely repressed, or completely flamboyant and deviant? Can’t people just have a healthy sex life without being creepy about it?

9. Why do people try to put a time limit on healing from a broken heart? How can they sit there and say that someone should be over it by now and dating someone else?

10. Why are we the cruelest to the people that we love? Don’t we understand that criticism and mean words and indifference hurts those we love more than anything else?
