And the difference is...

I've been accused lately of freaking out. I don't freak out. I get confused, yes. Freak out, no. And there is a big difference. Freaking out consists of hysterically crying, accusing the other party of atrocities that are not true, not letting the other party get a word in edgewise, not accepting one's responsibilities, etc. Confusion consists of not knowing what is going on with the other party and therefore you don't know what to say, do, think, etc. I am confused. Not freaking out. I have no idea what the other party is currently thinking about things and therefore I don't know what to say or do. I may occasionally do something irrational due to that confusion, but never freak out. I am a very simple girl to understand and to be accused of freaking out and being complicated is not very fun. I need my sleep. I need a shower, but only every other day. I need food. And I need communication. The end. If all of these are fulfilled, I will be a satisfied girl. But once one of those is taken out of the equation, sometimes I don't know how to react. I never freak out though. Its something that I always thought was stupid and therefore always tried NEVER to do. But confusion is a natural emotion and I am definitely confused beyond all reason. And its really starting to bother me not knowing whats going on. Communication is the key missing point here and that, to me, is a very important point. And contrary to popular belief I am not a mind reader and therefore cannot decipher what the other party is thinking in this situation. Just tell me like it is and I'll be happy. End of discussion.
