Complicated and Confusing

         We're all human and we all have our complications and we have our moments when we're just confused not only by simple things like algebra problems and science class but also because of other human beings, like our freinds and family. Why are we so complicated and confusing? I guess it just comes naturally to us and it's just the way we live that makes us this way. But we all wish we weren't this way a lot of the time. Especially when a person you care about is mad at you, for what seems like no apparent reason a lot of the time.
        When they're mad at you they seem cold and distant, not their usual selves. With everyone else they give them a smile or a wave or joke around but with you they just act differently with you and you have no idea why! You drive yourself crazy trying to figure out why he or she is mad at you and yet you still don't know what's up with them. You also don't want to ask what's wrong because when you do ask them they say something like (if you're lucky): "Nothing's wrong." or "You should know what you did to me." or "Nothing, I'm just tired." or most of the time you'll get the most typical answer: "Nothing. I don't know what you're talking about." I know from personal experience I give people the latter.
        Why do we act like this? Why can't we just be upfront? It would make things a lot easier then holding a grudge, right? We're all fully aware of the fact that if we were honest with one another then things in life wouldn't be as complicated and confusing in our lives, it could be one less thing to stress over. Trying to figure out why your best friend or whoever is mad at you is a lot of work and it's just not fair to either person. That's why when I'm mad I try to be as upfront as soon as possible and it usually works because me and the person I'm mad at end up being cool after a while.
        Then again it's one thing to be the one who's mad but it's a whole other thing to be the one that's being mad at. The latter isn't fun, especially of the person who's mad at you isn't as upfront as you'd like them to be.
        So next time someone is mad at you, just take it one day at a time. There's no way they can avoid you forever, right? Also keep in mind that if you don't like it when a person is mad at you, try to take it easy on the person that you get frusturated with. It'll make everything less complicated and confusing for you and everyone else.
