Dear friends,
I've been learning the art of developing relationships, and I was just wondering if any of you knew that it could be a job? Building relationships takes so much time and effort, plus its hard.
Have you ever considered how hard it is to learn "small talk"? Ugh! Its ridiculous. You either know it and do it extremely well, or you don't know how at all and if you don't... you might as well forget talking.
The other thing I've learned is you must act on what you know about people, for example... if you know someones love language is quality time you must remember (even if you have twenty different things on your mind) to talk to that person, and ask about there cat... that you don't even care about.
The other thing you must learn to do is laugh.... at everything! If you don't laugh people look at you like your from mars... and then don't talk to you for the rest of the night. Also, you must learn peoples sense of humor, or else it will be extremely awkward when you show them something that you think is funny and they could care less. (Hate that one) Oh.. I forgot to mention one of the most difficult things yet, getting to know that one person, or two, that you've known for a YEAR and still yet, you always feel like you've just met... you guys feeling me?
Don't get me wrong I love relationship but, its a hard boat to sail. And I simply wrote this up.. to say what we've all been feeling.
