Hey OCUK !

I am pondering this much lately in my life, simple question, hard to answer:

Why do people always want someone they cant have but ignore people they can?

It seems like a chain, person in the middle wants someone 'above them' they wish they could have or be with or talk to etc but has someone chasing them 'below them' they do there up most to ignore, but still feel bad about ignoring, as you know there a nice person really, but every fiber of your being is like, no, the attention is nice, but not really feeling it, and I suppose this is true for the person 'above them' in there feelings to you (i.e. the middle person) if that makes any sort of sense.......

Anyways why must this happen? lol
 
This a serious question?

It's all about progression. We're a magnificently ambitious species really, something our instincts control.
 
I was never really that fussy........if someone 'below me' (and that is a rather small demographic) wanted me then I was up for it.........I was lucky that the one time someone 'above me' deemed to look down I happened to be stood there.....so I grabbed the opportunity with both hands and never let go.

My motto has always been, why love one, when you an love them all.......
 
This isn't something that is true of the people that live in council house estates, they all seem to breed with each other willy nilly.
 

HAHAHHAHA

Made even more funny by this woman that just turned up at my house uninvited
and proceeded to pace outside my front door for 10 mins, i said I wasnt free and wasnt in !! proper stalker :(

My 'hobby' of house security just paid for itself, I could see it was her on my cameras and hid !!

You can guess why I asked this question now.

Very truee
 
lol yeh this is a serious question, im more puzzled why people dont just get with people they can have, as there perfectly decent people, but there is no interest etc

I have explained it... people want to progress from where they are to be a better person. The easiest way to measure this a lot of the time happens to be the in the ability to acquire "better" things, be that material possessions, sporting/physical or academic achievements, or relationships.

The reason I asked if it's serious is that it's totally blindingly obvious to me :p

:edit: Worst "A GIRL LIKES ME" thread ever.
 
Wait a second..
You have a stalker, possibly psychotic and you are saying that you are just going to ignore it?
I wouldn't do that if I was you pal, there have been plenty of cases of mad loons murdering who they are stalking.
