The Rant

Why is it that some people feel that they have to live from one drama to another? And if things are going along to smoothly then they have to find some small thing to blow up into a major drama? This is the case with different people in my life. One of the explanations I have is that they secretly get off on all the attention. They can not stand to not be the centre of attention and that when for whatever reasons they aren't in the spotlight they come up with this great big ongoing dramatic saga of events in order to get back into the spotlight.

Although to be fair I guess I have to take some responsibility for after making the decision to come here I received a lot of extra attention. Which in turn took some of the spotlight away from them. However, this could have been used as a positive thing for these people as me moving away has allowed for them to get more attention by others wanting constant updates. Although I guess in a way that is still diverting attention from them as the questions are about me.

There are other people I know here for which this explanation doesn't apply to. For that the only thing I can think of is that they aren't happy and as a result create this elaborate dramas to garner attention in an attempt to make other people feel sorry for them. Again this is another attempt to be the centre of the universe.

To these people the only thing I can say is Grow Up. That behaviour was acceptable when you were 5. Not when you are an adult.

This post is not intended to any specific person, it is just a general comment. Don't begrudge someone for trying to make themselves happy. If you don't like the way things are, take some of that time and energy spend making dramas and use it towards trying to make yourself happy.
