Mydish1 Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 I dont know why but i have a couple of friends and an acquantance who believe what they want, but not what you tell them (facts). This has to do with my jobs and internships. Im not going to refer to anyone specific, but if i told them I did my internship at X place..and i tell them specifically its just an internship. They ask me multiple times again in the future if im still with X, and every time I have to repeat myself. Or if i tell my friend Im working at X, he has this built up notion from what he hears about X and all its glamour. I've been on the inside and know how it is, he asks how it is and I tell him nothing but the honest truth - the boring job that it truly is and what I do there. Or i tell him its similar to places he worked at and he wont believe me, or he feels like im holding out info from him. A lot of times when there's really not much to tell or anything to tell at all, they think im holding info from them. Kind of like the same concept of telling someone their bad habits, but they dont want to hear it, they only want to hear the good things.
Lukkyu Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 A terrible personality flaw imo. An inability to recognize where you are wrong (and we are all wrong about something) is an inability to learn.
