I Have Pet Peeves

Just Say It Already!!!... People who don't apologize... I understand that when you are in a relationship with someone, there is going to be some degree of tension that accumulates. Fighting is inevitable, people are going to do and/or say things that they regret, things that they feel remorse over... People who think that if they don't ever admit to something, that it just magically ceases to exist, BUG THE LIVING HELL OUT OF ME! Denial does nothing for the other person, it is a selfish, cowardly way to avoid having to deal with their own emotions. How can you respect a person who makes you deal with THEIR emotions for them? First thing I do after the dust settles after a fight, is clear the air by apologizing for each individual incident I feel remorse over. Sure it is an uncomfortable thing to have to do, but if you don't, both of you will be left carying this baggage that sucks the life out of you and leaves a lingering fog of tension that affects everyone around you.

Some people might light the baggage. Take comfort in it's suffocating presence. I think half the world is more about image and appearances then good old fashioned honesty. Honestly. I think they would rather guilt ate them alive. Then admit shit happened and have things out in the open.
