Tells about an argument I had

689 views. 2010-10-17 00:21 |

To me, I am always believing that most arguments are meaningless, at least it’s true to me. Believe it or not, I can give you an example.

 

Once I came home after shopping with my friends. I pressed doorbell at the downstairs before coming up to the 4th floor, because our flat is on this floor. Due to there were too many things in my hands, I even couldn’t spare either of them to knock the door. At first, I guess my dad would have already opened the door and welcomed my return. But to my angry, it seemed he didn’t open the door and I didn’t know why. I couldn’t stop shouting to the door and hoped that my dad opened it soon. However, I waited 5 minutes then the door opened. It’s hard to accept I was holding all the heavy stuff for 300 seconds maybe more than that out of my flat and there’s somebody just in it but didn’t open it. What a totally terrible experience! I complained to my dad about his slow movement and postponing opening door and he’s always like that. His excuses varied from time to time: such as because he’s doing cooking at that time and can’t spare either hand to open the door, or he was watching a program and it was unfortunately showing the key part of this program, or he was sleeping and didn’t hear my shouting. Of which I even don’t believe any. So there was a small argument between us but our relationship recovered soon on this problem. Until now everytime I think about this, I just feel it’s funny. It’s absolutely meaningless argument to me .ha-ha!

 

Come to a conclusion now, since it seems hard to change my dad’s reaction and performance on the issue of opening door. That’s a strange habit but I have to accept and I hold that every thing exists for a reason. So I’m planning to change myself such as preparing an MP3 to listen to or reading a funny magazine to kill the time when waiting out of my flat. That’s a probably good way to avoid argument.

 

So just try to find ways to avoid this kind of argument like me on this problem instead of thinking out all the evidences to prove that you are right. You are definitely saving a lot of time in your daily schedule^^

Well, your dad is not exactly right. Opening the door for you is a light and simple task. He should not leave you waiting there. People are normally tired and impatient at the doorsteps. You were right to complain and glad to note your forgiving attitude.
