honesty...

I must be naive. I must be a silly person with no grasp on reality. I have this sense in me that hopes against hope that people, specifically, the people I do business with, are being honest with me.

We rent. The owner of our house is ready to sell and has offered it to us first because we have that right written into our rental agreement. The letter from the management company told us that there may be another interested party, and that we need to make our decision soon. Every time I mention to people that they told us there may be another interested party, people tell me that this is likely a ploy, a rouse, a bluff.

I don't want to live in a world where this goes on all the time. But I am powerless to stop people from doing this, and I am powerless to keep from doing business with people who might do this. I have no evidence that what was said in the letter was untrue, and the management company hasn't really given me any reason to suspect that this may be true, but for some reason, society expects me not to believe it.

I must be naive. I must be a silly person with no grasp on reality. I must be someone who wants to live in a world whose existence is completely impossible. I must be completely out of touch with human nature.

I will continue to be this way, because living any other way would be depressing.

In other news, we're buying our house finally!
