actually, it's not about being rude. it's about being insensitive towards others feelings. but in the end, insensitivity leads to rudeness. thus, that'll automatically will make you a rude person and not forgetting insensitve.

in this case, rude and insensitivity equals.

everyone might encounter rudeness through their family, friends or any other stranger boarding the same bus. maybe they were pissed. maybe they were PMS-ing. maybe not. maybe they just want to get on our nerves and see us boil.

encountering and being rude are the same thing at the end of the day. you yell at the elderly, you're being rude. you tell someone, their voice sounds awful when they reach a wrong note, you're being insensitive. it just goes on and on.

sometimes you don't realise you're being rude or insensitive. like in some cases, i'm said to be rude. usually, insensitive. i say what i have in mind. no holding back. i'm a 'i'm-going-to-tell-you-even-if-you-don't-want-to-hear-it' kind of person. i don't care what people react to my opinions or response. actually more accurately, sarcasm. i don't go, "did i hurt your feelings". it may sound sadistic. yes, i hear that alot. in fact, millions of times. sometimes, it haunts me.

if being straight-forward and open-minded is counted as rude and insensitive, so be it. i say what i want to say. i meant well. if i hurt anyones feelings, i'm sorry but i got to say it. i can't keep it bottled up in my conscience. i learn in history class that to every causes, there's consequences. i'm prepared to handle the consequences when i cause something.
