Mainly because I just don't understand how they work a lot of the time. Sometimes I wish I knew, sometimes I'm thrilled that I don't understand it, because it would just make things more complicated, and would really throw off my ability to think logically most of the time... what I learn, I learn by watching people... their behaviors, mannerisms, responses to things, etc.
But I don't understand most of it. I'm lucky I even leave my house at times....
Anyway, I have some questions:
1) Why do people deny things that are obviously going on?
2) Why do people pass blame so often?
3) Why do people pretend to be "buddy buddy" with others, when they really don't seem to like the person?
4) Why do people ask mindless questions to others like "how are you?" when they could not possibly actually care, seeing as they don't know me?
5) Why do people surround themselves with tons of people, yet only talk to one or 2?
6) Why do people get offended if you don't talk to them every single day? I'm guessing most people don't realize that friendships require a LOT of maintenance.
7) Why don't people say exactly what they mean? I mean, most people can read the signals via body language and all, but even THEY have miscommunications, which makes me think that people should say what they mean in the first place to avoid that?
8) Why do people deny feeling emotions at times, even if it's abundantly clear (by lack of rationality in what they say) that they are feeling something?
9) What is the difference between "being polite" and "lying"? I mean, the classic here-someone asks if their pants make them look fat... and they do. So we are supposed to say "no, you look fine" to spare feelings even if we know everyone they pass is going to laugh at them or think that? Also, it doesn't make sense... polite would be doing good things, right? Well, in that situation, initially one is lying.... how is that polite?
