Most humans rarely admit their complicity in their sob story. They are too busy either fishing for sympathy or painting the other side as a Disney villain or both Except in rare cases or illegal or immoral behaviour. No matter how thin you slice it there are 2 sides to a story

if you aren't careful, people will use flowery language to describe their selfish & self serving interests and make it sound like a noble thing that you exhaust & deprive yourself meeting them.

for the most part those who are loud about "my love language is gifts" are grifters, gluttons & entitled. Ask them how many gifts/much money they've given out recently no strings attached,they cant answer Cos they really mean l only care about receiving/being gifted.

they rarely/if ever consider how much their demands & expectations are putting on the post-bills income if the giver as long as they get to keep theirs and spend what they are gifted or avoid using their own income to buy the things they con out of the gifter that's NOT love

whether the gifter has savings or or not doesn't concern them as long as the gravy train is uninterrupted.. beg, borrow,steal, overdraft getting their gift is all they care about expect anything from them? crickets,ghosting or volcanic eruption rarely ever reciprocity

Some conversations on marriage on this app wont be so frequent, if - character & integrity was at the top of the list of spousal choice -people weren't resentful they have to be of service & not just served -people didn't marry with hidden self serving motives, spouse = utility

Some people speak in hyperbole 1-cos they are dramatic 2-Cos its their means of manipulation, emotional blackmail, guilt tripping ,distraction & escape accountability Its more disingenuous than hyperbole Reduce frustration in your life easier by discerning which is which

If you've seen a few episodes of THE CROWN, you'd see the irony in the demand for "Princess treatment" There are obligations & accountability to her title, the crown, the family the public more about others less about self more duty than pampering reality v fairy tales

Humans have always been performative in nature But digital cameras & social media has made it 100x worse, we now have performative: -charity -parenting -relationships -virtue -allyship -condemnation theatricality & deception to create & curate an image/perception Discern

The people who would rather rabidly foam at the mouth that a statement was "insensitive" Than if the statement was a factual observation & a valid warning of danger ahead Are not the good people they think they are To them, feelings are more important than objective reality
