What just happened?

Sheesh! Totally didn't see that coming! Like it came right out of left field I swear! Sometimes people really surprise the crap outta ya. I mean, you get a sense of the "crazy" in most folks you get to know, but when shit really hits the fan, people really get a chance to shine.

            In those moments, you're spinning the wheels trying to figure out the pivotal piece. Like you missed something. Like you skipped a chapter in a book you were barely reading anyway. And if you spend enough time investigating the possible answers, you might even start to question your own sanity. I've found my self on a mary-go-round of "who's the guilty one here" so many times that I have come to the realization that this will happen over and over again so long as I choose to interact with others. It's just something that happens as people suffer change in their lives. Change obviously represents "different from the norm", and when people see different they tend to make rash adjustments that may seem unruly, depending on their experience with the variables. When you're used to living within a certain limit of realities you only expect certain challenges to be faced with.  It's always frustrating to meet an adult who has inadvertently decided to stop growing emotionally, or intellectually. As if they have reached their capacity to learn from life. It's mind boggling when an individual says or does something to signify that their relatability is at it's limit. To go any further into development would be a wasted effort. So what do you do?

 Move on. That's the only legitimate solution I can come up with. Literally remove all the future plans of development with that relationship and find a new interest. The less time you spend from that moment on trying to figure out the answers, the less negative energy you carry. I don't think they are a lost cause forever necessarily, but I think for the time being you're better off going in another direction. I'm almost sure we've all been that person I'm talking about to others that are beyond our way of thinking. No one is perfect. But be honest with yourself and just don't shut out the possibilities. Try your damndest not to be stuck in your ways and always have some room for new ideas. If you stay fresh I'm pretty sure your surival rate will go up.
