You know the type – those who act super polite and smiley, but are 0% interested in actually helping or being nice. The people who collect your phone number and never call, have an amazing meeting with you but then block you after, ask you questions about your life but forget it all the next hour. Dealing with these kinds of distortions and fake niceties over the course of a day is so draining.
How do you stay stable after having to navigate insincere interactions like these? What skill did you learn? People masking their disinterest behind fake smiles warmth and politeness is exhausting. I have a tendency to blame myself for being a boring person, so that people act in a wrong way because of me but I want to get more endurance for it.
