Personal Narrative-Lack Of Aggressive Communication

Improved Essays
I think one of the more important things that I’ve been observing and learning to do is not care about why and the reasons for a situation. There’s a vast number of ways to shun or hurt people without saying anything, especially after you’ve been susceptible to being drawn in to explain what’s on your mind. Sometimes the speaker is at fault for expecting the listener to keep information to themselves, once it’s in another persons mind and or in a spot where it can be easily accessed again, then that’s that.

Over the last 6 years I honestly can say I probably deserve a lot of this silent treatment, silent bashing, and whatever I’m being called or viewed as. I can’t do anything about that directly, I won’t change other peoples opinions and judgements because it’s not my place to tell you

Too much of myself has been shared to the wrong people to expect that something useful could of probably been done with it. Fragile like an egg, the hopes of communicating this type of thinking with someone else, is just simply put, hellbent.

It’s sad, but rekindling those types of connections are hard. Especially when they never had a real amount of time to grow. A lot of the beginning bonds that were ruined, were during youth. Which makes it worse, because now they have the rest of their lifetime to push you away and grow on thought, of how they should treat you for the rest of your life because of what you did to them. That is the end result of burning bridges that once allowed you in their life.

Putting an end to meaningless connection, and effort. I’ve too much to do, and learn, too much to see before I can say, “I’ve done it all.” As much as one cared and thought at a time, “oh maybe I can fix this, there’s something I can do.” Fucking wrong, get it through your head John.

They don’t want you involved, and that’s the cold fact of life, let it slide back down into the pits of a forgotten abyss where these facts should never arise again into your

    I refrain from making hasty decisions, a trait that’s made it easier to manage time and keep my life organized. It’s not that I don’t enjoy some spontaneity, just that I’ve had experience with faulty planning. I like to consider as many details and possible outcomes of a situation before making a decision; in fact, I believe it’s my best characteristic. Thinking things through allows me to make sound, satisfying choices in both my academic and social life. It is a practice that has saved me from careless mistakes on math tests and kept my activities.…

    Please wait for me to catch up to reality. Trust me, I’m trying, but when life moves as fast as it does, it becomes too late and I miss out on yet again another possibility. Please wait for me to think of a half-hearted excuse as to why I can't go out tonight because telling someone that I want to lay in bed and stare at the ceiling isn’t the best excuse. Please bear with me.…

    Judith Viorst, psychoanalysis researcher, claims that after a loss you go through the stages of shock, denial, mourning, anger, guilt, and acceptance (Viorst 239-243). Although this devastating event occurred, life does not stop here. Despite the circumstances, you are forced to move on and rebuild your self. While you are recreating the self, you are also taking what you learn from the breakup and implementing it to your becoming. Rather than having to focus on your partner, you now must focus on yourself to make sense of your becoming.…

    During this weekend, I can say that I experienced all three levels of communication. It is something that at first, I did not realize that I was being that particular way. During the course of my day, then I would realize. For example, the I-It communication level is something that I experience everyday and I’m sure we all do. When I pick up my coffee, when I buy clothes, and when I walk into a store etc.…

    “Actions speak louder than words”, a saying i’m confident almost everyone has heard once or twice in their lifetime, is the epitome of why we should treat people rightfully. Though not everyone may see eye-to-eye on this, I firmly believe that the manner in which you treat someone greatly affects their perception of you. Actions are far more effective in comparison to words, the action behind the words is how you can differentiate between what is being said and what it sincerely insinuated. Of course, words have the ability to generate feelings in a person, but the way in which those words are expressed have a much stronger effect on cultivating emotions that will stick with a person for life. From personal experience I can affirm that…

    An individual’s character cultivates from personal experiences, failures and life circumstances. Tested through time and still holding true, learning through mistakes remains the valuable way to learn. I personally could begin by saying, this is a story of an addict who ultimately got herself together after 16 years of addiction, except that is not what defines me. Overcoming addiction is a small part of my history, nonetheless it has a place. Moving forward, today at 45, I am a wife, mother, grandmother and a student.…

    had tried a number of ways to solve our differences. One major problem was this teacher’s rude treatment of me in front of the children. She had very poor communication skills, making it extremely difficult to have a discussion about anything we disagreed on. In the past I had tried to help her improve in this area. I tried giving her time to think about a subject before we spoke.…

    I try to stay away from materialism so that I could truly see what is important to me. I want to leave this world as a useful entity, not a person with giant castle. I do not refuse the necessity of money, though. However, the reality is that I feel many of my first-generation immigrant friends are focusing on material achievements, which implicitly equated to the dollars. I used mostly my time and money to invest in self-improvements.…

    If I earned a dollar for every single time in my life that people have told me, “Why are you so quiet?” I would probably be able to pay my college tuition. Most people have always described me as shy or reserved since I was a child. I always had a not so good first impression when meeting new people, constantly making me feel like a coward. I always felt like a deer in headlights when a person would introduce themselves to me, and I would slightly present myself to them after an awkward silence.…

    The relationship I chose to analyze for my interpersonal communication paper was the relationship I had with my ex-girlfriend Laura. We met in high school through mutual friends and we dated throughout my junior and senior years. Communication problems and trust issues eventually were too big of a barrier to knock down and our relationship ended there. The main concepts I chose to analyze about my previous relationship were Personal Language, Nonverbal Communication, Proximity, the Social Penetration Theory, and lastly Relationship Threats. Personal Language shows your true self and is how you express your individuality and it is also more common in a private setting.…

    Whilst growing towards adulthood, adolescents are given more responsibilities: many of which are those of an American citizen. This citizenship is what brings all Americans together. Initially, all United States citizens have rights. However, it is the responsibilities that we take on which ultimately shape our country. If we forego our responsibilities, our rights could be lost as well.…

    Growing up, I noticed, when approached with conflict, my sisters and my mother would often state that they did not want to talk about it or would simply leave the room. I now have a phrase for this: the exit response. For us, the exit response was always temporary. If the problem was serious, it would eventually be brought back up; if it wasn’t, then things usually got better on its own. While my dad is often the first to use the voice response, I have noticed that my dad often chooses the loyalty response, too.…

    I think everyone can relate to some sort experience that has happened in your life when you thought that all was well, but the reality was that it wasn’t. It took something really tragic to happen for you to find out that someone you loved had secrets. All of the things that you thought of that person is shattered into a million pieces and you’re left there trying to sort through them trying to choose the ones you want to hang on too and the ones that you would sweep up and throw away forever. The conversations that you have with those you love sometimes still leave unanswered answers to why someone that was supposed to take care of you decided that someone was more important than you. It was March 1st, 1993, my Grandmother has passed away 4 days earlier.…
