Erm...I'm baaack

Yes, sorry to bother you all again, but, I just...well, I just don't understand you. I know, another one. I really, really want to though...I'm tryin'..

I'm reeeally having trouble with the whole duality concept..I just can't wrap my head around it. So, basically, you all say one thing, but then...forget? And contradict yourself? I don't understand. You honestly believe two things at once— Yoooouu....have multiple personalities? I'm sorry, I know it's ridiculous; I just don't get it.

Why do you act different ways around certain people? Adaptability, a need for acceptance? You tell me. Please? I'm beggin' ya here.

Uhh...looks like my post was the 666th...is that a bad thing? 😛

Its real simple. They think both yes and no at the same time. Its like 2 processors in the same computer processing same program with opposite values.

Result: they often contradict themselfs in public eye. But being a libran, i never realize this split and enjoy all the chats with gemini. Normally when someone says gemini is contradicting, i just feel they are plain stupid, unable to understand a gemini properly. Gemini do make too much sense to everything they speak but in the most sarcastic way which many doesnt enjoy.

hey Wheelhomies 🙂
i wont presume to speak for all Gems, but i can give you a bit of an explaination of how this plays out in me at least. it may, of course, be just as confusing as what you already know/think.
in a way it can be related to the way that change is constant in the world around us...this same thing happens in my thought process, sometimes as a result of the changes taking place around me and sometimes not. i sort of like some of the ideas that TheLibran brought up, though i dont think people who dont understand are stupid at all, since half the time, i dont understand it either...i mean, that may just mean that i'm stupid. but i tend to be extremely conscious of the volitile nature of "correct" and similarly to Libra, i have to measure everything out and investigate until i feel secure in any sort of "truth" (the existance of which is debatable, considering that it is so subjective). however, i'll often swing back and forth between two or more opinions throughout this process, whereas most Libras i know seem far more consistant. i think they conduct their investigations in different manners. it does indeed, at times, very much appear that i have more than one personality. there really is very little that i encounter that i do not see at least two sides to. to see this in a positive light, consider the swinging back and forth to be exploration of both ideas. *smirk* to see it in it's negative light, it can be identified as a neurotic dysfunction.

as for acting different...i just find that different people tend to bring out different qualities in me to some extent. for example, there are some people that i'm more comfortable talking with about my feelings, others that i love to go out on the town with, others who i enjoy stark intellectual exchanges with. adaptable, yes. a need for approval, not usually so much. i mean, there are some situations and people who really inspire my rebelious streak. rather than seeing it negatively as personal insecurities perhaps take a look at it as an efficient use of resources. the ends sought or acheived, of course, are dependant on personal agendas.

perhaps, in general, the issue with this for many people is the discomfort of seldom seeing a Gem's entirety. this often is perceived, due to Gemini's usual flippant behavior and appearent extroversion, as a true lack or shallowness of personality. if we were more quiet and brooding, we'd come off like really flakey Virgos. 🙂

hey rainbowchaser, 'sup. 😛

"i have to measure everything out and investigate until i feel secure in any sort of "truth"...i'll often swing back and forth between two or more opinions throughout this process"

do you ever reach a decision? or is your only consistency that you are inconsistent? 😉

"as for acting different...i just find that different people tend to bring out different qualities in me to some extent."

ok, i've heard this before, and i think i can understand it.

"perhaps, in general, the issue with this for many people is the discomfort of seldom seeing a Gem's entirety."

ding ding ding!!! we have a winner!! 🙂

"this often is perceived, due to Gemini's usual flippant behavior and appearent extroversion, as a true lack or shallowness of personality."

hrrmmmmz...i don't see it that way. won't get into that.

thank you very much for your input. i'll try not to get too attached to these ideas, though, as i know that tomorrow you may discard your previous statements and decide that they were all caca 😛. (kidding...or am i? hehehe)

lol, WH. cute.
yeah, sometimes i come to conclusions. if my emotions are involved, it generally takes a very long time for that to happen, though. and yes, my only consistency is being inconsistent. i've been married for 2 years and my husband still can't anticipate my actions or reactions...but he's a Sag, so he usually just laughs.

and as for today, i'm still standing by yesterday's assessment. i probably will, until i come to the point of omniscience. i'm still fence sitting over whether that's a realistic goal or not though. *smirk*

"i'm still fence sitting over whether that's a realistic goal or not though. *smirk*"

I have faith that you'll be able to reach multiple decisions. Just don't let any emotions creep in there; don't want to complicate things 😉.

shank ya veddy much for your help, dear.
