Human Relations
Understanding human behaviour is tricky and complicated. I think the two biggest problems that usually end up in huge misunderstandings are the believe that a behaviour of someone you know was induced by you and the second reason is the absolute impossibility to predict what someone will do in response to something you did.
I know that they look almost the same, but in reality they’re quite different. On one hand you have the necessity of understanding the actions of those who are around you. On the other, you have the necessity of pleasing, of repressing some actions that you think won’t be well accepted by others. The reality is that you have absolutely no control in the first issue and in the second, can only shape your behaviour based on assumptions that have absolutely no logical value, i.e., there is no way of making the predicament so we just follow a set of rules dictated by society and hope they’ll work. Unfortunately there are also two problems with that way of proceeding; the first and more obvious is that two persons that are subjected to the same conditions act, almost always, in different ways; the second is more obscure, it’s the fact that the set of rules isn’t equal to all of us, in fact, there probably aren’t two persons with the same set of rules… so would someone tell me what is the correct way to behave in a society like ours?

You know how much I love Klimt, that crazy painter. When I lay down on my bed and I look up that's exactly what I see ... death and life. My answer for your question is ... be yourself, follow your rules and try your best ... I am sure someone, in our society, is already in love with the person inside of you. The rest is society, its rules and its fictional life. kisses, see you soon.
