Stop it.

Stop always doing things without telling me why you're doing them. I know there's an ulterior motive, I've gotten to know at least that much about you in the past ten years. Most of these things don't really matter, it's just that I don't know why you won't tell me why you're actually doing it.

It's like you've decided you can't trust anyone. Nobody gets to see you. You have a carefully prepared costume that you wear every day, so that people see only what you want them to see, or at least you try and make it that way. We can guess some things. You can tell us all you want, but we still guess.

I take it as an insult that you don't seem to trust me. It makes me not want to trust you.

What is it that makes you so vehement about things? It makes people afraid to talk to you. You can't expect to have a civilized discussion if you're always going to start attacking the person you're 'discussing' things with.

Once you've decided you don't like someone, you decide that people you don't like can't possibly understand the things that you like. Even if they say they like it, they're just doing that to smooth conversation, or to make other people like them.

You also don't talk about much that isn't someone else's idea. This movie, that book. They're awesome, really, I think so, but what about you? What's up in your life? Do you think about anything other than these various opera that you tell me about? I know you do, I just don't know who you're telling about it.

I would appreciated knowing you.
