Inspiration comes from experiences. Anybody who tries to say otherwise is pretentious or giving himself more credit than he is worth. “Experiences” is a big word though, so it shouldn’t be taken lightly. It encompasses everything that you observe using the five sense organs everyday, plus how your mind puts them together to remind you of something from the past, or envision something in the future. Or it might skip both of them and create a hypothetical “this could’ve happened” scenario. Any one of those things can inspire you to do something, whether it be good or bad.
The trick is to have as many experiences as you can.

Possessive
There’s an inherent romanticism in being possessive. It involves admitting the fact that someone else has the ability to see, care or love the same as you. Or, at least enough to threaten you.
I wonder what the reaction would be if a possessive person was told that the subject of their feelings wasn’t as appealing to others as it was to them. Theoretically, I would assume that it would be more offensive to them than anything else. But it’ll be interesting to watch.

Jokes are a surefire way of telling who is really in charge~
I’ve always had a theory that men use laughter and humour as a way of marking territory, or aggression towards other men, when in the company of women.
It’s quite easily noticeable that men in the company of other men try to tell more jokes than normal if there is a woman around. This isn’t out of goodwill, but just trying to prove themselves better than the others. Of course, not all humour has to be at the expense of others — with the real funny ones being neutral. Too many jokes trying to put other people down work the other way with women, who see through men’s pretences more than we give them credit for.
