i noticed something uncanny about my relationship behavior today. when i was with sam, used to get told off for not listening to him during conversations, it doesnt have to be a real deep conversation, most of the times its silly daily talk, like what he wanted to eat for dinner or when i was supposed to meet up with him, or how i was supposed to do something. and what usually happened is:-
1. he would stand in front of me
2. he would then say something pertinent (but most of the time, its usually impertinent)
3. i would stare at him, nod and say i understand or i hear it, or i dont say anything
4. 10 seconds later, i would ask the same question he just answered based on some made up assumption i had in my head (and i swear, people, i DONT KNOW where they come from! perhaps from some other lifetime) and i would either receive:
a. a repetition of what he just said and nothing
b. a repetition of what he just said and a huge unbelievable stare
c. a repetition of what he just said and a scolding for not paying attention, or
d. no repetition and a LOT of scolding.
and what usually happened was that i would receive a lot of D's.
you would think that these kinds of habit and behavior would die off with one relationship but somehow it got translated to another relationship, in this case, the one now, current and present. the FUNNY part about this entire thing is that instead of the simulated situation above, what would happen is this:
1. he says something on the AIM chat screen
2. i would reply to that something, and ask him a question
3. he responds
4. 10 seconds later i would ask the same question or make up some answer that i somehow assumed to be true (same reasoning as above, no clue how this could possibly happen). i would receive:
a. a direct "read up 10 lines to what i said previously..."
thats it. hehe. this one is pretty direct. but its hilarious how the habit got translated over from a full hearing senses to a vision senses but yet still produce the same results in this cycle of habitual non-hearing, non-comprehending what i am seeing/listening to.
now mind you, this only happens with my boyfriends. i dont have this problem with other people and its really, really weird .. and kinda quirky, if you think about it. typical me.
pretty neat huh =)
