Reactions....

What is a reaction?

It is how you reply, return your answer, gives out signal how u feel or made your feelings known in a given situation. This above answer is written by me. Not any definition given by Oxford.

And it is precisely how you reply, return your answer, gives out signal how u feel or made your feelings known that will cause the trigger another person's same reaction.

In simple words, reaction trigger reactions.....

I have a talent for complicating things, don't I?

A lot of time, you meant this way and expect certain reactions. Then suddenly your initial assumption is wrongfully taken as another set of meaning, triggering a different set of reaction which either causes the further chains of reactions to explode or go out of control.

I don't know if i am reacting the way i want myself to be, because i feel myself being mistaken so many times. And so many times that i am now numb to it, taking it for granted that the next time things won't be the same anymore.

Used to be able to joke about anything, used to be able to talk about anything, used to be able to ask about anything, used to be able to infringe on anything and now a sudden remark could cause an outbreak of unwanted reactions.

Perhaps keeping quiet at times hoping the reaction will not go out of control doesn't works anymore. Because if the reaction is not completed, the next time to trigger the same reaction will be even easier. I will try to finish this reaction, so that the same triggering occur the next time, there will be no more to react about.

Or perhaps, all my theories are just bullshits.....

What is Love?

Love.... a very strange feeling... and u know it is love only when u feel it.... no other ways to experience it... u could be at the receiving end of love.... but i think nothing beats being reciprocate your love by loving u back.... and that's when u know.... something has just started which is forever.....

Love is blind... which is way something u ponder over why somebody could so something so outrageous for another person. Good or bad, it is really up to individual to judge.... and sometimes its only when u realise u are harming the person u love with your excessive love.... then u realise what wrong have u done.... and by then its too late....

For example, there are some mum who would always complain about everything that causes her son to fail his exam, like lousy teachers to lousy school and perhaps a lousy MOE in Singapore, but failed to reflect on the effort spent on nurturing her son....

This is just a common example that is happening everyday on pretext of love, and because everyone has a different meaning of love, so their actions and their interpretation of love is different...

Some guys spend on lavish gift, only to find their gf wish for more time being together.... some guys spend so much time on her, only to find that they need more materialistic items.... some guys keep certain things from their girl to not let them worry so much, only to realise that their girl wants to hear their problems and share the burden.... some girls wish for guys to listen to them, only to find that whatever they said is taken as complaint....

And it is because of all these different interpretation that requires what is known as communication. That's the main factor which will lead to whether your love is true or reciprocated or not excessive or u get the type of love u want to have, and not what u think what u give is what u want....

Anyway, miscommunication is always happening, as all humans are born different. Whatever it is, sometimes u realise when your gesture of love is being treated otherwise.... hurt comes in.... and things will never be the same as before.....
