This is the first time I've tried to act like an actual human being who exhibits empathy, is considerate of others, and generally nice and not demanding.
Granted I've only been extending this experiment on one person. Here is where you would expect me to write like, "And I can't believe I didn't try this sooner!"
That's only half correct.
I wish I would have started it sooner with this biddy, but I still refuse to ever expand on this. The sheer willpower that I am exhibiting putting on this facade is at times almost deafening, and I'm not all too sure if this is better than my usual schmoozing - Lord knows that's easier. However, in this theory I'm testing, my hypothesis is that I will be looked at as attempting to actually have an emotional investment as opposed to my usual ... you know scumbagish qualities.
My entire life is smoke and mirrors.
I don't want to say it's a herculean effort, but it's a herculean effort.
