Random Thought Before I Go To Sleep

ReadingThe Catcher in the Rye made me think; people rarely speak in a way that directly communicates their needs. Knowing that could drive you crazy. Someone saying "I really liked your article!" could really mean "I think you're attractive and I'm hitting on you".
"Dude, I wanna' hang out or something" could really mean "I'm still not over that break up and I need to be with someone right now".
At the same time, it could literally just mean "I wanna' friggin' hang out". You never know. Hell, the people talking might not even know. When I ask people for stuff, I am probably asking for something else entirely unconsciously, like how Holden Caulfield wasn't really asking the taxi driver about the ducks but about himself.

But whatever. It's just the random thoughts before my brain shuts down. Goodnight.
