Yes ... to be politically incorrect about it, we have to just suck it up, adjust our sack, and do whatever it is we so desperately need to do to make ourselves satisfied.
So, if we all know that we have it in us to do the undoable, that we find ourselves still asking questions, testing the waters, and letting the 'what it's' and consequences turn us away.
I think we've all felt this way at some point or another, mostly when it comes to dealing in relationships.
We know the signs, we've heard the sayings, and still we find ourselves totally clueless as to what the other person is thinking, if they're thinking anything at all.
Relationships are hard work, shocker to those of you who haven't yet felt the pains of one. Don't get me wrong, there are lots of positives about having a significant other, but freedom is a seven letter word - but so is slavery.
And it's not the actual relationship that gets us in a bind, but the period thats before it - kind of the 'pre'lationship.
Signs and signals get muddled, you blunder through what you're going to say, and countless hours and money are spent trying to woo the other person. Does it ever get any easier (or any less expensive?)
I've found that in my experience, saying what is on your mind or in your heart as it were usually gets you the answers that you need to know. Answers that let you know if what you're doing is working or if it's time to back down. Responses let you know if you're moving too fast, too slow, or if you're on your way to getting a restraining order put on you.
Now I don't typically like to give shout outs to John Mayer, mostly because I feel that his little stint with America's (craziest) Sweetheart Jennifer Aniston has made his ego a little too much to handle, but he's right when you just say what you need to say. Get it out there to the person you're vying for, because who knows when you're going to get your next chance.
