Behavior 4: The Immoral Moralist

 This type of behavior is typically practiced by people who see the world in black and white, good and bad, where they are always a good person.   Anyone following a different train of thought or whom they judge to be inferior is bad yet, despite this narrow conception of the world, they promote themselves as being open minded and tolerant.  This is very close to hypocrisy, where it not for their firm belief in morals and values that steadily expand to encompass their actions. 


These are the people who tell others to not do something because it is immoral but then do it themselves and try to justify it. These people also think of themselves as good people regardless of their actions because their logic goes as follows: I am a good person, ipso facto, my actions are good. No!. When a guy leaves his wife when she has cancer, he is a bastard. When a girl leaves her boyfriend the day he becomes unemployed, she is a bitch. Justifications about how things just weren’t working out are just bullshit. If you are going to be an asshole, assume it and the consequences of your behavior.

Behavior 2: The Slow Responder

  The people guilty of this type of behavior typically use their phones to talk with people on Yahoo Messenger, Skype or Facebook.  These people are usually busy talking to people, sometimes multiple people, but are doing something else in the process, which means that their response time falls between too quick to be simple emailing and too slow to be a real conversation.  This means that, frequently, the other person spends a considerable amount of time waiting for a response to their message because the first 2-3 answers came in 30 seconds but the current answer has not arrived for 20 min. The reason this is annoying is because it basically involves one person acting in such a way that they are telling the other person: "I don't value your time".   These people are constantly distracted and they answer once or twice every 10-20 min, presuming they haven't actually forgotten that they are talking to someone. WTF.  Now, before plaudits...

Behavior 6: The One Worder

 This type of behavior usually arises during conversations, when the One Worder simply begins to answer questions or statements with one word, such as "yeah, no, yes, ok, cool".  Such platitudes are not conducive to a conversation and make the other person feel like the One Worder is either not paying attention or not interested in the conversation.    A dialogue takes the commitment of 2 people discussing a topic or idea.  If one person isn't really involved, then you basically have a monologue.  I know that some people do not mind this type of behavior, but personally, I find it gets old very quickly.  I love to talk and good conversations can make my day.  However, I don't need someone else to talk to if the only responses I get are going to be one word statements or interjections.  I might as well talk to myself at that point.  People have very rich lives so you can never really know everything about someone.  Thi...

Behavior 10: The Trusting Fool

 This type of behavior usually manifests when a person turns to a friend in seeking relationship advice.  The Trusting Fool discusses the situation and talks about her feelings and fears.  The "friend" listens, but already has a judgment about the situation because she is biased.  At the end of the exposition, the friend provides some insight and comes to a rigid conclusion.   In a moment of trust and pure stupidity, the Trusting Fool actually becomes convinced of the friend's insight without questioning it.  In essence, they adopt the position and conclusion of the friend without any critical thinking or further study.  This is just plain stupid. First, every single person is subjective and biased.  There is no such thing as an objective friend.  They can be more objective than you, but they are not fool proof.  Second, everyone needs to make up their own mind.  A good friend is there to explore various options and, p...
