Upside down

How can it be that one person can turn our world completely upside down? Our life could be semi-decent and then this one person could say one simple thing and turn our world into a complete state of confusion where we don't know where up or down is. It would be all fine and dandy if you would talk to this person right? But no, said person begins avoiding you and doesn't want to talk to you hence leaving you in this world of pure confusion; walking around with the deer in headlights look.

I know I am never going to understand the "rules" of certain things in life but there are times when I do want to understand things that include me in them. But when the other person (or people) involved refuses to talk about a certain situation, it just makes life a lot harder and confusioning. It leaves many questions unanswered just floating in the air such as: if we have gotten to "this point", where do we go from here? More importantly, what point are we at? Where are we (and not in the sense of you being there and I being here)? Where do we stand in each other's eyes?

If a conversation needs to be had, it is more unhealthy to avoid it and not have it, then to avoid it for the fear that it may lead to something. If we don't do things out of fear of what could possibly happen then nothing would be accomplished in life. What if the thing we fear is actually the thing we want and are afraid of that fact; afraid of what that could mean? Afraid of actually wanting to see what the outome of anything would be? Is the "healthy thing" really to avoid the subject/person all together? Or is it to face the subject/person and find out, take that step into a territory that may seem frightening, but in reality could be something good, something worthwhile?
