100% ????

I had a thought the other day that was prompted by a text from someone and thought Id share it with ld you bloggers!

Can you ever be 100% about anything or anyone? In terms of inanimate objects, again you can never really be 100% about them. For example, if you buy a car - you may really like it but there will still be things that you are unsure about until you actually get it and drive it out of the place you bought it from!

In terms of liking someone, you know that you like them but are often unsure of what to do, but you'll still be unsure about them until you actually go out with them and then you usually make up you're mind! You may not be conscious of it, but surely its true!

These are just my thoughts on this and probably sound like rambles, but please comment on this and give you're opinion on the question 'Can you ever be 100% about anyone or anything?'. It makes a good debate and I'm curious to see what other people think!!

As for other stuff in my life. Things in my past are reallyu starting to get me down - and I cant tell anyone. Its too difficult although I really want to! Sometimes I wonder if lifes worth living!!!...

You'll never meet the perfect person, so you ca only hope that you'll fall in love with someone who loves you back.
'Love conquers all', including your doubts, and the things you don't like about them.
Just hope and pray that you'll fall in love with somone at the same time they fall in love with you.

In essence, this seems to be a question of doubting and trust.

People are a lot more... un-100%able (yes that's a word now :p) than objects. In you're case of the car, at least there is a way to find out for certain if your doubts are reality or just worry - you take the car out and you drive it. Then your fears are either confirmed or disproven.

It may seem in terms of fancying someone to work similarly - once you are in the relationship, you become sure if it's the right course to persue or not. But is that really the case? Even when you're in the relationship, can you ever be 100% sure of it?

My opinion is yes, you can, but not necessarily all the time. You can come across times when you're certain it's right, then others when you doubt it. But then the doubt doesn't mean that it's not meant to be - I think it's in human nature to doubt. Doubt is only a problem when it consumes you to the extent of affecting you're life - whether it be your relationship, your friendships or your trust in objects.

In a way, maybe that's what a phobia is - a doubt, a distrust of something. But this implies that fear is merely a form of doubt manifested... but thats enough of a tangent for this post ^_^'

Good Lord, I need to write essays again - my grammer in that post was really bad at times! I'm starting to confuse your and you're :S
