We make them and we break them,because some promises are very hard to keep.Here are the 상단, 맨 위로 six most common broken promises...
1."I'll come back tomorrow"
당신 always hear this from builders,plumbers,and electricians.But the truth is very different.They won't come back until 다음 week(or later).And 당신 will probably need to phone them 5 times first.
2."I won't tell anyone"
We 사랑 hearing secrets and we happily make this promise.And at the time we really mean it.'Don't worry,'we say,'your secret is 안전한, 안전 with me.'But of course it isn't.Research shows that everybody will always tell one other person the secret.Very soon the whole 거리 will know!
3."This won't hurt"
A favourite phrase of doctors,dentists,and nurses.They usually say it just before they give 당신 an injection.But the phrase is not complete.The full phrase is:'This won't hurt me(but it will probably hurt 당신 a lot).'
4."I'll write"
당신 make a new friend on holiday 또는 on a bus journey,you swap e-mail addresses,and 당신 make this promise.Six months later 당신 find a name and e-mail address on a card 또는 an old piece of paper.'Oh dear!' 당신 think-but then 당신 remember that they didn't write to 당신 either!
5."I'll pay 당신 back tomorrow''
In Hamlet,Shakespeare told us never to borrow 또는 lend money.He was right.When we lend people money they always make this promise,but then they forget.If we then ask for the money back,they think we are mean.If we don't ask,we never get the money back.
6."I'll always 사랑 you"
Whitney Houston sang a song about this and every day,all over the world thousands of people make the same promises to each other.We know eternal 사랑 exists,but is this promise the most difficult one to keep of them all?
