Promises Promises
Have I got a deal for you
It’s a guarantee
I’m doing this for you
I swear it
You deserve it
All I need from you is
If you do this, then I’ll
It’ll be just between us
Anytime there is an overly happy, too good to be true sort of person, acquaintance, sales person or what not… the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end!
I’ll tell you why…
Because, promises are not always promises, not all deals are all that good, there are no guarantees, most people who tell you it’s for your good are about to hurt your feelings, anyone can swear nowadays, no one truly knows who deserves what, there is always a catch or something in it for the one offering… and, it is never, ever, ever just between you and them!
I know, I know… pretty brutal and straight up, right?!
I’m pretty sure everyone has met at least one person like this in their lifetime. Maybe not all of the above in just one person, but it is a self-centered personality trait that I find rather irritating, destructive, and dangerous… I avoid this personality like the plague!
I’ll make it clear here that I’ve no specific person to point fingers at, since the trait can be found in any sort of type… if they let it!
Here, have a cookie…
