Are you two-faced or two-sided?

Hey there, it’s been awhile I know. But, I found the time to sit down and relax so I thought why not blog real quick...So here I am. I wanted to get into something actually.

Yesterday a friend of mine and I were going back and forth about this concept “two-faced people are different than two-sided people.” Now, he said they were the same, just a different term used to describe the SAME type of person. I on the other hand, begged to differ. I felt that two-faced people and two-sided people are two completely different people. Two-faced people, are people that act one around someone and than are completely different around someone else. While two-sided people, have two different sides to them, whether it be rude, and nice; shy and outgoing. Whether these sides contributes to being two-faced is beside the point, because their still two very different things...at least IMO they are.

We got on this topic by him asking if he was on my “bad side;” and I went on to inform him that I didn’t have a “bad side.” This one discussion with him left me pondering a lot of different things, and helped me to come to a couple realizations.

I do not have multiple sides, I don’t have a “bad side” where if someone pisses me off, that’s what “side” I’ll “use” around them. I’m simply the same person around everyone, (am I contradicting myself?) I don’t feel the need to use “sides.” Which is why I feel that two-faced is different than two-sided. I know people that have certain “sides” but aren’t necessarily two-faced. Hmm...just thought that was interesting, to say the least.

I’ve also realized, that I’m easily annoyed...well I’ve known this, but I’ve just recently had an epiphany, ha. Probably because of the fact that one of my bestfriends can be (here’s that lovely phase again!) TWO-FACED! Don’t get me wrong, I love her to DEATH. However, at times she can be a completely different person with me, than in the blink of an eye I don’t know who she is with her other friends. I wish people could see what I see when the two of us hang out…not the person she tries to mold herself into.

I’ve been “wishing” a lot of things lately, “I wish this would change...”, “I wish I didn’t have this...”, “I wish I didn’t have to see...” I mean I follow all the rules, especially the golden one; *Don’t tell anyone your wish(es)! However, things just don’t seem to be going my way...it’s just one of those weeks...ya know?

 

I’d really love to stay and chat, but my Algebra 2 & Honors English homework are calling my name, isn’t that just lovely?

 

Wishing on stars,

Nik.
