A burden of our generation. The cause of all conflicts and tragedies.

I have just realized it recently. All people are different, therefore, misunderstanding is an inevitable part of their relationships. People can’t think in a common way, can’t express their emotions equally.

What’s more important to consider is the misunderstanding between men and women. A massive, huge lag between their ideologies.

For example, if you are a good-looking girl, then you almost hundred percent can be sure that guys will approach you in a night club. This situation is rather average and happens all the time.

Unfortunately, I don’t know, but what I see according to my personal observations, most of the girls will flirt with the guy if he is okay.

But, I just don’t understand, people in nowadays world are so superficial and stale that they limit themselves with that communication.

Moreover, what I know for sure, both men and women want relationship to some extent. But for some unknown reason make their lives more complicated than necessary. 

Surely, you can chat, flirt, even kiss sometimes but you can't always act so...

Since I've touched the topic of night club dating, I'd like to point out that this situation is more likely to be deceptive when both people pretend that what they do can't be taken seriously.

People just think that this way is easier, it's easier to shut down their souls and don't pay attention either to their' or others' people feelings.

And what is the result? After all, there's no emotional connection, belonging, only passion and possible sympathy.

Of course, I don't deny that superficial relationships don't have right for existence. Not at all, it's sometimes worth experiencing.

The only message I want to deliver or even to convey an idea that it's totally unnecessary to invent additional difficulties in relationships.

Impossible to be afraid to open up and trust someone.

Here self-preservation is rather strong.

But isn't it worth to turn it off for a while?
