I am disclosing my personal recently uncovered social theory. Drumroll!
The 35% Theory
Ever regretted getting to close to someone? or wishing you knew someone a little better? Or like me, have been unconsciously on the expedition of the perfect balance?
Some flash of blunt brilliance it me like a soft pillow. 30 percent. That’s how much you need to know some people. It’s enough for social networking aka using each other. it’s enough so you don’t get caught up in unnecessary drama and have trash bins full of tissues that weren’t used by you. It’s enough so you could share some secrets but no need for confessions of how you used to be abused. It’s more than enough for a good, sufficient, friendly relationship.
It’s that safe ground between more than just mere acquaintances but no need for the theatrics of besties.
and obviously, coupled with the fact that, peoples’ flaws get more glaringly annoying as you get to know them better, 35% is def. the way to go.
It also saves you the trouble of being ridiculously hurt and wounded when you honestly just need something worse to just kill you off.
