Communication at inappropriate times leads to problems
It need not be stated how important communication is to relationships… And everyone knows the dos and the don’ts from a theoretical stand point….
Problems crop up because, several times, communication is put off until one or both that are involved, are emotionally charged!
You choose to stay away from uncomfortable conversations that involve addressing your friend’s behavior or attitude when there is not necessarily a problem. You are strong and mature and understand that talking about emotions is not important…. It is far more important to focus on logic and reason! You can suck up to the few things that may keep bothering you and expect the same from your friend!
As much as you might have been cultured to think of it this way, this is totally the wrong choice!
Human relationships require constant upkeep and maintenance…. Communication is not so much about the language used as much as it is about when things are addressed. You are an emotional being and as much as you pride yourself or want to portray the image of this strong being, you are an emotional creature… you are human!
The mature thing to do therefore, is not to allow things to bottle up within yourself! The even more mature thing to do is, to recognize when your friend is letting things bottle up within himself!
Not communicating at the appropriate time in most cases leads to communicating at that inopportune moment!
Be an adult! Remember…. A stitch in time saves nine!!!
