You're welcome.

It makes me feel better. When I'm with older people who are still vital, I feel less like I peaked when I was 12.

Sarcasm is hard to read over text, isn't it.

Text

[dead_black_eyes]

So you don't feel old.

I'm really not a fan of texting to be honest. It makes me an anomaly in my generation, but there it is.

Text

[brotimaeus]

Not always.

Wasn't a fan of it for a while myself. Too much room for misinterpretation.

Text

[dead_black_eyes]

That's it exactly. I have an hard enough time with sarcasm in spoken word.

Text

[brotimaeus]

Can't say I didn't notice.

Text

[dead_black_eyes]

You decided it was politer not to say anything?

Text

[brotimaeus]

I figured you knew.

Text

[dead_black_eyes]

If you want to hear a crock of shit, ask someone about their self-concept. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Text

[brotimaeus]

I never had to look far to know that's true.

So you know that when you want to know something about a person, making friends with their most talkative friend is a great strategy.

Text

[brotimaeus]

Maybe, but I prefer being more direct.

Text

[dead_black_eyes]

Is that so? You've always tended to keep rather a respectful distance from my personal matters. I figured it was because you were asking someone else and finding out that way. Either that, or I imagine it's because you just weren't interested.

Text

[brotimaeus]

I'm interested.
I just figure if you have anything you want to tell me, you'll tell me yourself.
I keep a respectful distance because I respect you; I ain't gonna go snooping around behind your back.

I don't spill my guts for nothing. Even my therapist has to work for it.

Do you think I disrespect you for asking so many questions about your life? Even after having read your book? You must feel it's very unfair.

Text

[brotimaeus]

Not really. I put it out there to be read and of course it's gonna be questioned. If there's anything I really don't want people to know, it's not in there.

Text

[dead_black_eyes]

Those are probably the most interesting stories.

Text

[brotimaeus]

Probably. Maybe I'll tell you a few some time.

Text

[dead_black_eyes]

If you really want to, of course I'll listen.

Text

[brotimaeus]

One day.
It's not really a text thing.

Text

[dead_black_eyes]

Of course; I understand.
