Angry Goodbye!

Yes, "goodbye."

Huh? Oh! I don't mean goodbye as in I'm leaving, Silly Billys. :p If anything, I'm trying to return.

This thread is about something quite different. :o

Anyhow, I came to thinking the other day about people and their reactions to other people when problems arise. What do I mean? I mean this:

Suppose you find your self in a setting/situation in which you're with someone - anyone, be it a friend, family member, school mate, boy/girl friend, ect., and a problem arises... and you want to "talk" it over, so as to clear things out, but the other person does not want to; what, then, do you do? What is your reaction? Are you worried? Are you frustruated? How do you feel?

Do you find it annoying and/or pestering that you honestly do want to work out whatever differences/problems may be in need of fixing, but find out that the other person prefers to not talk about it, or respond with the oh-so-annoying "nothing's wrong"? Or... are you like this? Do you prefer to evade the problem in hopes that things will cool down by themselves?

I don't know... I just find it interesting how people have so many different reactions and approaches to things of this sort. If you are one of the people that get frustruated with these things (like myself!), do you stick around despite your vexation, or are you more brash and say "Well, fine - goodbye!" and leave until the other individual approaches you? If you tend to do the latter (and even if you don't), what do you think of people that react in this manner? Is it right or is it not? Is maturity a factor in things like these? If so, by whom is the immaturity displayed?

Just curious.
