Okay, so I thought about this topic on my drive to my high school classes in the morning. I usually listen to a morning radio show that reports bizarre (yet true) local news stories and comments on them. Today, this was their top story:
A man in his thirties in the valley was on a date with a woman. Apparently, as this was accounted by the date and later the man during police confession, he wanted to impress his date, so he deliberately ran his car into another, causing an accident. The driver of the other car, a man in his forties, got out to exchange insurance, and the man in his thirties attacked him, trying to beat him up. Again, this was to impress his date... When the man in his thirties realized the man in the other car knew how to fight and that he was losing, he climbed back into his car and drove off with his date. The police caught up to him a few miles away, and he's being charged with aggravated assault, reckless driving, and fleeing the scene of an accident.
This story got me thinking about how there are people in the world who feel the need to impress others, mostly not to this degree, though. So, on a subject related to that story, why do certain people in this world (not all) feel the need to impress people? Would you say that it's natural for there to be a certain amount of desire to impress on a date (not to the extent of the arrested guy)? Why?
I'm just curious about everyone's thoughts. lol
