>>11893634So you do see worth in value others assign you? Like if they consider you smart or even if they hate you for being manipulative, you still consider it value because you need to be skilled to an extent to make happen? So it's a recognition of sorts? I actually thought you'd deny it because of what you said before. But of course, you wouldn't be getting the same kind of value from cheap attention and it would ruin your image.
Yes, I apparently hide it and care about appearing proper and faking sincerity a lot. It's kind of innate. Maybe because my parents never gave me attention.
