Yes, and I've been insincere in my life as well.


And so have I. So saying I dislike it in others is hypocritical. biggrin

Though I try my best not to be insincere. I say what I mean, and I mean what I say.

N. even compliments me on that one.

THAT EEDEEOT.

I hope Kerie bites his fucking penis off.


You're reminding me of Byron in a way... lol. smile

Nah, don't hope that. She'd be too close.

Couldn't agree more... nod I know we all have our moments where we veer from the road...but when I start to, I correct myself as quickly as possible..and I admit to myself that I have. Too much energy and time is spent convincing ourselves that we really weren't, that it was "ok"... rose



Very true...though I get frustrated with myself when I realise..sun

I do, too... nod (with myself, not with you..lol wink )

I think it depends on what ways you're "going against things" you've said and done in the past...as well as how soon you do so. If a year ago someone says and does something different than they are now, you can logically explain the difference as a simple passage of time. If, however, their desire to "maintain honesty" has them doing and saying something different three days later, then I think you have a valid reason for questioning their sincerity (either now or three days ago), as well as if they're being hypocritical or not...

I understand what you mean, though.. nod
[Edited 6/3/05 18:14pm]



well, i guess what i mean in a more generic sense is, hypocrisy can creep up on a person, whereas a person tends to know when s/he is being insincere. it doesn't make hypocrisy any more virtuous, but i do think that it's often unavoidable, and those who acknowledge it are definitely at an advantage over those who won't.

I guess that's part of my thinking...that someone who's insincere will be more likely to acknowledge that they weren't being sincere...than someone who's hypocritical. the insincere person knows they are, and it's just a matter of character if they own up to it once it's been mentioned...as where the hypocrite continues to live in denial...they're experts at rationalizing their own inconsistent behavior.

Insincere

Oh I Think I'd Better Go
No Don't See Me To The Door
You Kiss My Mouth You Touch My Hair
Acting Like You Care

But You're So Insincere
It Never Ever Changes Anything
It's Obvious And Clear
That What We Mean Is Nothing

Oh I Know You Are A Fake
Yeah I See You're On The Take
Guess I Was Weak It Worked For A While
Every Time You Smiled

You're So Insincere
But It Never Ever Changes Anything
It's Obvious And Clear
That What We Mean Is Nothing
Your Heart Is A Gravity Well
It Drew Me In I Fell
You're So Insincere Oh Oh

You Whisper Low And Stroke My Hand
But We Both Understand That¡­

You're So Insincere
But It Never Ever Changes Anything
It's Obvious And Clear
That What We Mean Is Nothing
Your Heart Is A Gravity Well
It Drew Me In I Fell
You're So Insincere Oh Oh

Have A Nice Life

The lyrics are definitely good...and the "Have a nice life" ending is pretty profound. nod It sums up the effects of insincerity rather well.. *sigh*

The worst part, to be honest with you, is that being on a friendly basis with him, talking to him, seeing him, and knowing what is happening now (I'm not talking about sex, you don't know) isn't helping you move past this. Until that happens, you're going to be driven on an emotional roller coaster ride until you stop it and get off.

Love him, care about him, miss him. But you have to allow yourself time to get over him. Then, and only then, be friends.

"I'm not one for casual sex."

"I don't want to hurt you any more than I already have."

All these things said from him to me. I think it has everything to do with being both.

isn't hypocrisy something that doesn't really exist until it's identified as such? if someone is being hypocritical and decides to live with that without reconciling it, i'd consider that insincerity on top of hypocrisy, no?

Hypocricy is when your actions don't match your words...Insincerity is when you don't mean the words you say. So I could act in a way that would indicate that I mean my words...and though it would mean that my actions are insincere as well as my words, I'm not being hypocritical.

If someone tells you "I'm not one for casual sex"...then goes out and has casual sex a week and a half later...they're a hypocrite.

If someone tells you "I don't want to hurt you any more than I already have"...but doesn't care if their actions hurt you or not...then they're being insincere.

So yeah...it has everything to do with both.. sad

Do you know how easy it is...to make decisions in your life which take into account how someone else may be effected...especially if that "someone else" is someone you used to be intimately involved with??...It's damn easy. You can't cause that person to avoid pain or hurt in their heart completely...but that fact shouldn't keep you from placing value on all the ways in which you show them, their feelings, and the relationship you lived together respect. It's not hard...

I can't really say which one I find worse than the other. I cannot be around people who do either of the two. Add "superficial" to this little list and you won't see me around anymore! biggrin
