So I have this theory on people you meet. They go into one of five categories. The first is friends. Most people go into this one. The second is the tricky one. If you are single it is the potential category. Potential boyfriend/girlfriend/ hubby/wife. If you have a significant other, it is the boy/girlfriend or hubby/wife category. There should only be one in this category if you have a significant other. The next Category is the fun one. It is the fling category. You know those people you put in there, sometimes it happens and sometimes it doesn't. When you are married, not many people get to this category. IF they do, trouble is coming and coming fast! Hell, I think that even when I was single I only had 2 people ever make it to this category. The Fourth is the exes. These are the exes you can not be friends with. You know the ones with the really bad break ups and the one that are just really not good for you. The last category is the "no way in hell" aka the ax murders category. You know those people who just give you the creeps and you don't know why. This is their place.
Now there are a few rules for these categories. Most people can move in and out of the first 3. Depending on life. BUT once a person is in the last 2, they stay there. There is not getting out of the last 2. The nest rule is people can be in more than one category. Again depending on life. For example. My hubby is in the first 3 categories. (we are still in that honeymoon stage) You can and should be friends with the ones in category 3.
So next time you meet someone think about which category they belong in. It makes life easier when you do this. I know I have gotten wise in my old age.
And that is the random thought for today.
