Why can’t people just be nice and for real?

It is so hard to have a decent conversation with many people in this day. 

Example:  I try to have a conversation with “S”, half way through “S” throws me curve ball, then says “Just kiddin.”  I don’t know about you, but I do not need a “just kiddin’ in a conversation.  I find it to be rude.  How am I supposed to know if someone is “just kiddin” or not?  I don’t.  I’m not a mind reader.  It ruins the integrity of the whole conversation.

Example:  I join a new bowling league at an old bowling house.  I am friends with most of the staff.  I said “See you soon, I’m joining xyz league.”  My friend says, “Aren’t’ we lucky.”  This person is always like that.  I know she is “just kiddin” but she hurt my feelings. 

Putting people down or causal “just kiddin” insults are not funny.

 Why do people find it funny to attempt to make an a$$ out of someone else?  Think about what you’re doing to someone before you do it. 

Example:  A clerk that I know well gave me a pen to use, he didn’t bother to tell me that it was a trick pen.  When I couldn’t operate it he laughed at me.  He said, “I thought you were smart.”  I was furious and belittled.  I said “No I’m obviously not as smart as you.”  Why did he have to do that to me?

I believe in lifting people up.  Helping people to believe in themselves, letting them believe they can accomplish what ever they choose. 

 Why can’t people just be NICE!!!!!

 Thank you, I feel better.
