Here are some sentences that you may have uttered to someone else, heard them being uttered to someone else, or you may have been at the receiving end of them. It takes a second to say them and maybe several days for the listener to forget them..
"What!! You like Tuna Fish Salad? Yuck!"
"Gosh! You need to lose weight! You look fat in those shorts."
"How can you not cry? You must not be emotional enough."
"If I would have been in your place, I would have broken up with her a long time ago!"
"Look at the presents her husband gives her. Why can't you do the same?"
"What! You picked Commerce? Are you crazy?"
"You still single at 35? Everything alright?"
"Its high time you plan for a child now. Are you guys nuts to wait so long?"
"Baap re! How can you talk to your boss like that?"
"Have you no discipline? How can you wake up so late?"
"You are already 28. Why aren't you guys getting married? Is your mom not worrying?"
"What direction does your mind work in? How can you think like that?"
"Did you have a head injury when you were young? You are weird."
"All that you care about is sports. How come?"
"Oh my God! You are so boring. You always follow the speed limit."
I only have one answer for all the above statements..
"I am not crazy. I am just not you."
Think about it. Do people seem weird to us only because they are different from us and are not the way WE expect them to be?
