Those 'ICK' Moments!@#$%?

 

Just woke up and first things first, I asked myself, I could be our blog thread today.  Kabooom, that 'ICK' stuff suddenly popped up.  Surely, everyone one of us did go through those 'ICK' moments, either as a witness OR probably the 'guilty' party?  LIKE WHEN you're having that first date with your crush in a fancy restaurant and in the middle of things, he licks his finger?  OR you're in a damn serious business meeting trying to close a deal with a prospective client WHEN you suddenly gaslight?  OR probably you are in a longhaul flight and you'd rather go on movie streaming, exclaiming and blurting from time to time [to the annoyance of the stranger seated next to you]📗📙📘

We can go on and on, those 'ICK' moments seem endless.  BUT researchers were so curious  as to WHAT is really happening with our brains during those 'ICK' moments.  And the first thing they came about is that WHEN we're turned off with something, it ISN'T an automatic sign that there is something 'wrong' either with us OR with another person.  In short, NOT everyone is put off by someone awkwardly chasing an errant ping pong ball WHEN you are walking in serious thought💚💛💜

WHAT's intriguing researchers are questions to ponder LIKE WHAT keeps us bothered?  Do we have that tendency to bolt after the first sign of uneasiness?  Does that 'ICK' thing one of those tell-tale signs of potential incompatibility during the early dating stages?  True, even psychologists admit that it can be really tricky as to HOW much weight should be given for those 'ICK' moments💥💥💥

One consensus various studies revealed is that our own reactions to those 'ICK' moments can be subjective most of the time.  LIKE some people think it's disgusting to burp in public WHILE some find it hilarious.  BUT we are advised that before we look elsewhere, let's assess ourselves as to HOW we react to those 'ICK' moments, LIKE are we getting in our own way OR are we way too hard on people?  BUT WHAT's quite alarming is that most respondents in many studies showed that the vast majority of people are talking about their 'ICK' to everybody EXCEPT to the very concerned person, that fellow wh's eliciting that 'ICK' moment.  So, that's a miss from us most of the time😡😡😡

Our takeaway:  Some 'ICK' moments, however, could be serious enough OR worse, 'deal breakers'.  LIKE being rude to a restaurant waiter could be a real-life snapshot of HOW someone as a person handles potentially stressful situations.  And generally, experts tell us that 99% of the time, we can trust ourselves because our instincts are that powerful and in those 'ICK' moments, the most powerful message is 'THIS DOES NOT FEEL RIGHT OR GOOD FOR ME'.  Linking 'ICK' moments to relationships, experts advise us that a relationship is more than just a sum of its parts because at the end of the day, there is no pre-defined formula as to WHICH route you need to take, like take action for that 'ICK' or simply shrug it off???
