Joseph's "Just My Thoughts"

Humans establish a tacit relationship distance with others without even knowing it. Each person’s relationship distance is different, and it is not permitted to change the distance unless there is a specific reason or motive. Relationship distance is fateful. Sometimes, an event creates an opportunity for others to confirm the unilateral setting of the relationship distance. If the other person agrees to a one-sided distance setting, the relationship continues. All of this is often more informal and tacit. It is nearly impossible for others to change this distance. Therefore, we create a new relationship. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Humans and the world they inhabit are intricate. We build relationships with one another, rooted in unspoken agreements that reflect sentiments like trust and affection. When hostility arises, I begin to question the underlying implicit agreements. Someone else has a connection with me while being oblivious to my expectations. After experiencing emotional pain due to arguments, we often shift from these unspoken understandings to explicit communication, such as verbal conversations. Still, by then, it may be too late to heal the rift. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
