Killing Me Softly with Oscillations

I hate hit-and-runs, mood swings, inconsistencies, pendulum swings, oscillations, and the likes. They simply drive me nuts. I'm talking about relationships here. . . .

I think relationships (whatever kind it may be) should be well-defined.  WYSIWYG. What you should see is what you should get. No reading in between the lines. No need for assumptions and analytics.

However, that usually isn't the case. And one of the most frustrating things for me is to be unable to tell a person how much these kinds of "uncertainties" wreak havoc to my peace and sanity.

The world is complex enough as it is. I wish people would just treat people the way they would actually want to treat a person no matter how good or bad that may be. I know that prim and proper behavior has its place in the scheme of things, and often, it does society much good. But sometimes, I wish people would just be true to other people and match their behavior with their feelings and vice-versa. (In case there’s something “wrong” and unacceptable about a particular thought, feeling, or behavior, well, then that’s a different matter completely and should be discussed some other time perhaps.) But, more than simply matching feelings and behaviors, all I’m saying here is that one should be consistent with how one treats someone and not fluctuate between extremes.
