Diggin' on You: When did liking someone become so complex?

So after work yesterday, I went to interview this guy for the What He Said segment of this blog.  Somehow we just got to talking...and the interview never happened. SMH! 

Four hours later (YES SERIOUSLY)...four hours later, I realized I never started my Kodak Playsport to get into interview mode. What happened?

Well we started talking about all that stuff that people NEVER talk about.  And one of the topics was: When did liking someone become so complex?

I mean dang.  What happened to simply saying:

I mean shoot...back then, you didn't have to ask any questions other than the simple one that you really wanted to know the answer to anyway.   Now? Please! Finding out how someone feels is like solving quadratic equations.

Probably because of that dreaded fear of rejection! That thang is for real! Yes, I get deep a lot of times.  So in all honesty, I know why it is so complex nowadays.  All of these life experiences we've had that plague our psyches make it difficult for us to enter new situations free and clear and ready to get things going. 

When it comes down to it, egos get in the way.  Pride will have you lonely.  Hurt will keep you in pain.  And fear will control you. 

In order for things to be simple again, you have to deal with the things that make it complex.  Air it out.  Put it on the table.  Free your heart, mind and spirit.  Then write a little note with the nice little boxes and instructions to check which one the person agrees to :)
