Curiosity Questions...

[Ada Wong]

I have more questions about life and such things, I guess...

1.) Why do people seem to be naturally mean or hurtful?

2.) Why do I (or others) feel the need to still try to do something, when all it does is hurt us more?

3.) How do you cope with the pain of missing out on something important? Why does it hurt so much?

Yay, such happy questions this time around. Thanks for the time and thought the following answers contain.

1.) Ask them. If it's someone close to you who is being hurtful, you can talk about it, and maybe one day they'll think before they speak. You might not know what they're going through, but on the other end of the coin they don't understand all of the hard times that you're going through, too. They think that they have all the problems in the world, and it's really selfish and horrible, but you've got to let them know that you're not going to put up with it and that you're a human being, not a doormat.

2.) Because, despite everything, a little part of you probably thinks that whatever you're doing is still worth it. You'll have to seriously consider if it is or not.

3.) It'll hurt for a while. A lot. But, after a while, that pain will probably go away. And repeated spikes of pain like this will come back every time you are reminded of it, and it will all seem terrible and you'll want to just hide somewhere, but you have to remember that there are so many other things that you won't miss, and that they will be the most wonderful.
