 By Judy Ramsook Feb. 23, 2006 Everyday we are bombarded with all sorts of things and we can tell how one thing is different from another by comparing. People do this all the time. It’s like something you are born with, but if we don’t fall victim to it, how else are we going to know if one thing is better than the other or worse for that matter. We compare things and people all the time. When you go shopping for instance, you check to see if that item you are going to purchase is better than another. You check for different things such as the size of the item, the way it looks, feels, and so on. When it comes to people, yes, we compare them too. We might find ourselves comparing one friend to the next, a relative, sibling and so on. This is one way of learning of how different we all are. Then again, there are some things that are not so simple to compare. Lately, whenever I visit certain websites, my screen is filled with this ad, you are probably familiar with it, it’s the one that asks the question, are you a good kisser? Something which led me to ponder if some one has been with one romantic partner all his or her life, how will you know the answer to this question. Similarly, if your mate has been with no one than you, how will he or she know the answer to that question. For, in order to find out if the answer to that, one might have to engage in a little bit of comparing, or fooling around as the case may be. In this modern day, it might be difficult for some people to believe, but there are some persons who have dated and been with one romantic partner all his or her life. You know, they must have been each other’s high school sweethearts after which came marriage, which brings me back to the topic. In order for one to learn if his or her partner is indeed a good kisser, he or she would have to have at least one fling or one night stand. Of course, if some one does happen to tell you that you are a good or bad kisser, then you automatically surmise that he or she has kissed others, before or after kissing you, of course. Sometimes all this comparing can leave others feeling rather inadequate. Especially if these persons learn that they are not as good as some after a bit of comparing had been done; something which can weigh a little heavy on some one’s self esteem, since before all that comparing, he or she thought he was fine at whatever he or she was doing. Of course some people would use this bit of information to improve his or her skill, and others who are more sensitive will feel as if he or she had been handed an insult. Just to be on the safe side, it might not be such too wise to inform him or her of being bad at whatever unless you are certain he or she can cope with the criticism. On the other hand, if you started dating some one new and he or she were to ask the question, are you a good kisser, would you also wonder if he or she is really asking you without doing it blatantly, if you have dated others before him or her? It could be. ------------ About the author Judy Ramsook: My first book titled: "Karen's Adventure" which is about two young girls who go in search of their missing parents, is now available.
