It happened today that I suddenly felt the persons I was talking to, in two different scenes, were physically too close to me. What's interesting is that the persons didn't appear to feel the same as I did. I stepped back a bit, trying to make it in a natural movement, and for one of them I glided a few times as I still felt too close to the person.
Lately, I've been aware of proximity between me and the person (s) with whom I'm conversing. I wonder why my conversation partner don't feel the same for sometimes they move closer to me when I try to distance a bit.
Have you ever had this kind of feeling? For you, how important is proximity? What do you think are the factors for one to feel it?

ReplyDeleteHmm,..seems like I am a very first person who write on this blog. Where is everybody??? Anyway, work must be done. Let's begin!!
ReplyDeleteStart with my comment about proximity. I might have this kind of feeling, but the truth is if I know that person I wouldn't feel the strangeness of being too close. I think some people are likely to stay close to the person(s) they speak with, so they wouldn't think as if the person who is talking to them has the bad feelings about them or disgusts them. However, it's usually depends on the relationship between conversation partners.
The next part is my journal~~~~~
Yesterday was a bad day at the beginning that ended with happy ending. The rain had been the most annoying thing for me since it continued to fall down like a broken pipe last night. I planed to go back home for that morning. There should not have been any problems except my stinky wet clothes that had been hung for almost two days. Rain wasn't an exactly major problem for me, the clothes were. I didn't want to leave them there on the second floor until I come back and wash them again. That would take almost a week or so for me to have some free time to do laundry. Crazy but true. I took all the clothes down, put them in the black bag, and carried them home. One piece wasn't heavy, but together....they put the weights on my shoulder. I should have done all this since last night, but no I didn't because I had other things to take care of. I ended up being late for almost ten minutes, thought I have to buy a new bus ticket. Lucky enough, the bus was also late for about fifteen minutes. You see, the good thing began to walk into my day. After long hours of sitting and waiting, I finally got in Chiang Mai. I was so joyful when the recognizing pick-up truck with the familiar horn approached. I couldn't explain how it really felt when I stepped into my house. All I knew was I didn't want to go back to the university again.

ReplyDeleteOn June 3,2009 I stayed at Khonkaen. I was going to ex-boyfriend’s room, for1 month that we brake off friendship but we usually talked each other. Before I stayed at khonkaen about 1 week, he didn’t talk with me. I didn’t know what is happened? I tried to called and sent messages to him everyday but he didn’t call back. I decided go to his room because I would like to know why he did not say with me and what is happened? I known I shouldn’t go to his room but I miss him. I went to his room by a car, about 15 minutes I stayed in front of the building that he lives. There is orange high building, has 5 floors. It doesn’t have an elevator and every floor has fire escapes were built beside of building that you can see the outside. I began walk to his room, he live at 5th floor. While I was walking to upstairs I thought was I sure to see him, Should I go to 5th floor. I thought until 4th floor then I heard someone was walking down from 5th floor to 4th floor. Who Is that? Is he? I thought. I ran to fire escape because I was very excited and I looked at he or she passed the mirror of the fire escape’s door. That wasn’t him, after that about 5 minutes I decided walk to 5th floor. At the same time, I heard someone was walking. He or she was walking I waited until the clatter of feet near and near the place that I stayed. I thought maybe that is he so I decided to look him or her. I saw this is ex-boyfriend. He looked at me but he didn’t talk with me. I asked him why you don’t say with me. He said I’m hurry up because I have study. He was walking to the 1st floor but I stilled at 5th floor, I was confused for everything. I was anger him but I known he might to have his reason. About 5 minutes I went to my friend’s room. I hope, some day he will say with me before I remember him in my heart.

Today, I have read my teacher's story and I get some new idea of the proximity. I have never known the really meaning of proximity until now. Someone said that the people in the town absolutely like technology or modern things and do not like rusticity. I confess that I use to be the one who fascinate in the civilizable things. However, when I live in Mae Fah Luang University, I got a stange feeling that I never felt before. I feel free, relaxed, and elated both of inside and outside. I realise that the gap between me and natural are decreased and I do not want extravagant things anymore. I do not know when I start to love them and care about them, but I really know that I love to wake up in the morning by singing of the birds and besieged with the trees. Now, I think I know what proximity is and I will try my best to maintain it. How about you, what is your proximity is???

ReplyDeleteIt is interesting topic.The first thing that came to my mind was about relationship between man and women.Yes, I had this feeling before.There was a girl , as we are Chinese studying in Thailand, she likes play ping pang like me. so, sometimes we play ping pong together.I just treat her as a friend.One day, after play ping pong,she said she wants to visit my dormitory.
when she come in I just keep the door opening, when she seat down, I noticed she look at me with the looking i never see before so, i pretend to get water and move my chair a little bit far with her but she moved her chair again. I was very uncomfortable. I did not know what she feel only later I found out she was like me and she just want to close to me.
But I did not like her,I want space between us.I think it is very important too keep the proximity.If someone gets so close to me and we are not familiar with each other, I will feel pressure. That is not good conversion if we are under pressure.
I think there is some factors can make other to feel it: emotionally sensibility, he or she must have a sense of notice how people' emotional change like she or he look around or she or he is not look at your ayes when you talk to each other.
In conclusion, it is normal as a hunmanbeing consider proximity as an important fact in our conversion. It always better to give other people some space when we talk especially when we talk to the person we just meet first time. Try to make a conversation that is no pressure by judging the proximity.

What a long day!!! Can you imagine how exhausted I could be??? I didn't get much sleep last night, and today I had got a dance rehearsal until two in the morning. I thought my legs were going to come off. Right now I am much alike a zombie. Anyway, my friends and I give everything that we've got so hopefully the performances on Freshy Night tomorrow would be worthwhile. I hope they scream, shout, and give us big applauds for our performances. Come and think of it, it will be over very soon and after that I will be free every evening. Finish my assignments, enjoy doing things I want to do, read books, listen to my favorite music, watch movies, or even relax. That sounds actually amazing!!!! I think I will take a break on this semester right after the end of tomorrow :) Oh no!! About 30 minutes my red round clock on the cupboard will tell me to go to bad because it would be four o'clock in the morning. I think I had better go to bed for my own good. Waking up early is what I need to do the very first thing tomorrow. I've got thing to dine out about, yet it might stay on my mind only because I haven't gone to bed or because of the face I would never ever want to see again in my life. We'll see how it would be after tomorrow ended. Need to restore my energy now.

ReplyDeleteI ever had this kind of feeling before. It happens between my friend and me. Her name is Pang. The first time that I meet her, I think she is very beautiful and good looking. She likes the person who is conceited. I don’t like her. Once, I have a problem about broken my heat and I don’t know how to solve this problem. She can give me some good advice. She always hugs me and told me to be patient. I feel warn when she hugs me. I never feel like this before. It is wonderful for me. I really feel she like the person who is my family. There are many activity that we going to do with each other. So, we are very close.
Nowadays, my friend and I still close with each other. I think proximity is very important for make new relationship with new friends. The proximity can make me feel care of my friend. I want to give the good think for her and I want to be her friend forever.

I always felt like I'm the only person who believable for myself. Because I was wondering when people around me trying to changes me to be another one else that not myself. We're really physically close, but I felt that our relationships about thoughts are faraway like we know each other’s from another galaxy by very far angles camera. It's not about physical proximity, but its about psychological proximity. Sometimes I need a moment to keep myself faraway from every things to let thinks about my life and personal reasons. Why people around me just do unfavorites kind of action, such as: try to changes my lifestyle and force me to do what they wants or likes, try to force me to do something bashful but they didn't do that. It's too terrible that I never have a chance to do what I want. I thought people around me should keep distance from me, I didn't physical, but psychological I wanted to. It’s seem to be I never has my own moment for myself anymore.

Did you think why each day has along time? Now I think so, because I have a problem about my love. Everyday I miss my ex-boyfriend; he is a person that I told you before. I don’t know what things that make me forget him are. I want to forget him so much because I would like to have a new life and new heart that doesn’t him in my mind. I think you ever miss someone so you know how I feel. Sometimes I forgot him but when I did or saw something that I do everyday such as chatting MSN, using mobile phone, I will miss him again. Someday he called to me; sure I want to say with him so I will talk with him if he calls. I cannot say about how I feel when I miss him but I know I hurt in my heart. I want to have my life same in the past but I do not know how long for me. I wait the time pass and pass until I can forget him but now I miss him.

ReplyDeleteProximity
ReplyDeleteI have to confess that I always feel the same way as you think but in different position. I think, I am too close to people whom I talk to. That is not nice at all when I started to realize and accept it. Normally Talking and hearing other people is my hobby. They come to me only when they have problems or lost their mind. Can you imagine how many story which I need to bear? I don't know either! Nontheless in my case, proximity comes with sympathy. It is very important for me to give respond to them even though I can not help. Parents, friends, sister or myself have different problem but one thing that needed is the one to listen. At my position today, I am really need one to listen.

Hmm.. For proximity i think i ever had this kind of feeling. It happened to me for a long time. I and my friend actually, she is older than me. we know each other from internet and talk together by msn everyday. At first im shy to talk to her because i never talk with someone who i never meet before. Until i go back home and we had an appointment at Paragon. im very excited to see her but when i met her. im very surprise because she is very kind and friendly. At first time that we met each other, she feast me an ice-cream. After that we talk together everyday althought im at Chiang Rai. we communicate by msn, sms, and telephone.
ReplyDeleteSometimes, i think im very luckey that i knew her because she can help me feel relax when stress. So, i think proximity is important, Eventhough, we are not stay together or met each other everyday but communication can help i feel good. Sometimes, the person who is not the one in your family or when you talk to her and you happy, she can give you proximity
