People being wrong is one thing. If I can see why they are wrong, I can choose whether or not to argue with them. If I can't see their reasoning at all but they are fully confident of their own rightness, it's unbearable. It's like an itch I can't get at.

I need them to either make sense immediately or admit that they are not making sense. If they go on & on at me as though we are actually having a conversation, I get really angry and I think it's rooted in anxiety because I am someone who needs things to make sense.

Some might think they do, and think you’re being dumb. But some might feel no need to, no. There are many people out there, who are not like you, Helen.

I know this is the reality. What I don't know is why it is this specifically that makes me so angry but I think it is something to do with being denied the opportunity to bring order to it even if it's only in my own head.

The not understanding part? Not sure. Do you have this with other things you don’t understand? Or just people?

The not making sense. I'm fine with not understanding things. Then I have a reason it doesn't make sense. Christian tried to explain some physics thing to me the other day. I didn't get it but I know it made sense. The problem was my lack of knowledge. That's fine.

I don't get angry with you writing in Dutch even tho I don't understand it but if you said to me 'feminism is great because the ground of all being seeks resolution in the slippage between what is and what will be' my temper would rise immediately.

I’ve come to realise you’re a mathematical thinker with a psychology interest. This is your problem.

Some scientists have told me this. That I think about social issues in a scientifically analytical way.

Have you gotten into programming at all out of curiosity?

No, my brain does not retain this kind of information. It is of no interest to me. No people.
