sounds a lot like hypocrisy
Doesn't that just totally suck when someone comes up to you talking about how they want someone to behave but yet they can't seem to act that way themselves? I don't really think I do that much to be honest so I feel pretty safe writing about this.
It's just great how someone will come along telling you how much it hurts when someone talks about them behind their back. Then, the next thing you know, they start into the "he said she said" routine about someone else. Isn't that lovely? I think it is just so wonderfully ironic.
Oh, and then you have the, you have to do this and then I'll do this move. Yeah, that's a real winner. You expect someone to do something for you just because they should? That way you can do the same for them, right? No. That's not going to cut it either. Most people aren't that stupid.
This last one hits pretty close to home. I love it when people yell at me for being irresponsible. I can understand it at times, because I lose things quite often, but it cracks me up when somebody yells at me for losing something of thiers. Yeah, if you know me well enought to leave something with me then obviously you should know me well enough to know that I lose things easily. If you hand something to me expecting me to keep it safe and then find that it's not safe, don't yell at me for it. I never asked to take it, you were the one irresponsible enough to leave something with me.
Somebody may want to argue that last one with me, but seriously, I never ask to be responsible for someone else's things. If you leave it with me you've just made a great leap of fate and sometimes fate's not nice.
One of my favorite hypcritcal remarks is the do unto others as you would have others do unto you statements. Some of the people that say these things are the very people that you would never want to know what they want done to them. Many times these are the same people that like to say things about others when they are mad. Now if someone came up to you and said, "I hate you, and I wish you'd die." would you really want to think what they'd like happen to them if you do unto others as you would have others do unto you?
Everyone that I've ever come across, with exclusion of myself, likes to try and look better when they're afraid that they are in trouble. I know I do it, but I'm not the person that is going to tell someone else to trust me and then try giving them reasons to trust me afterwards. it doesn't work like that and I'm not going to try to make it work that way.
I had a nice argument with a friend of mine today. Basically he said to stop making fun of someone else because it hurts her. I'm sorry, but to me that was just a load of bull. I'm not a "mean" person, but I'm also not going to decieve others to seem nicer. I won't be nice one moment and the mean the next. I'm all or nothing. If you want the sweet little uplifting talk all the time then DO NOT come to me.
I've tried explaining time and again, that I will not be easier on someone just because they are sad. If you can come to me for help you can take my advice or leave. I've told this person what everyone else is afraid to say many times and for some reason they keep coming back expecting a nicer response. This person will remain a secret because this is not the time to bring names into it.
Basically, all I really hope anyone ever gets out of this is that hypocrisy is not a point where you get to see a lot of hipos cross the road. It's my biggest pet peeve in life. You can have your own strategies to doing things, but don't expect someone else to be something just because it would make life easier on you.
Oh, that and shying away from the truth. If someone wants to tell you how it is don't complain, you probably deserve it. And don't hold back just because you care, in fact, that should be a modivation for telling it how it is. (IMO)
Capt. over and out!
