Do you pretend to like people you don't?

I really don't have the energy anymore lol if I don't like you then chances are you'll know it. 🤷‍♀️

No. I either try to get along with people I don’t like or I avoid them entirely.

im like a dog, i like all people
and sometimes wanna jump on them and lick their face
Lilymoon · F
@Matt85 Awww I wish I were like you 😄
Matt85 · 36-40, M
@Lilymoon it's easy. i just looked at my dog and i was like you know what? i wanna be like that.
PhilDeep · 51-55, M
Nope, never have, never will. Doesn't make me popular, but who cares?
Lilymoon · F
@PhilDeep yeah

No. I save my efforts for the needs of those I do like.

The exception perhaps is the office. I try to be nice to everyone, but it is my job. I am the boss. I’m also a firm believer that everyone deserves to be happy at work as long as they’re making a reasonable attempt to be successful. That leads to greater confidence which hopefully makes their home life better too.

I can tolerate people I don’t like for other people’s concern but I don’t pretend to like them, they will know my feelings towards them.
djjohnson · 41-45, M
It depends on if they are pretending to like me and what they expect. If they are wanting to hang out all the time then no I don’t pretend. But if it’s a person I have to work with then yes. I’ll pretend as long as they do.
Lilymoon · F
@djjohnson yeah or someone that's a friend of a friend that you dislike 🤷‍♀️
djjohnson · 41-45, M
@Lilymoon ah. That can be really awkward. But mostly I think it’s awkward for the mutual friend.
AbbySvenz · F
No, if I don’t like you, you’d know it
Lilymoon · F
@AbbySvenz me too pretty much I'm getting there anyway
In my experience, people with complimentary values and personalities tended to naturally gravitate together.
Making it easy to avoid awkward interactions with those who don't relate well.
@Lilymoon Yep 😔 Some days are diamonds.......

The randomness of it all is like a rubix cube

A good move--and not as drastic as say ---changing cities or states.🤭
Lilymoon · F
@SethGreene531 Yup soldier on, man up, be strong, .... all that shit 😁
@Lilymoon Exactly! 😁
fun4us2b · M
Do you mean here or in RL?

Here is fairly easy - even people I don't normally interact with make some good or funny posts

In RL - well ugh...
Lilymoon · F
@fun4us2b RL... but I suppose it could be here but that's different you can just mute or block hahaha
SW-User
i was never a fan of doing that
Lilymoon · F
@SW-User it's a pain in the azz lol
SW-User
@Lilymoon i think its even worse when you have to work with people you know are lack luster XD
Lilymoon · F
@SW-User oh yeah for sure 😖
Midnightoker1 · 61-69, M
Absolutely not..
SW-User
My first reaction is to treat people as if I assume the best instead of the worst. Later, if they attack me or I find them talking about how they hate people who [fill in the blank] and their hate applies to me... I'll adjust my view of them and stay away.
Synyster · 51-55, M
Well I’m not two face. So if I don’t like you, you’ll know real fast.
Not you of course. 😉
Lilymoon · F
@Synyster yeah but sometimes you have to make nice to keep the peace but I'm getting beyond that now haha
BobbyMoeven · 100+, M
Nope ...

I ain't rude though ...I just am always working on a quick exit strategy when I am in a situation with someone I don't enjoy being around ..,
Lilymoon · F
@BobbyMoeven yeah exactly
Piper · 61-69, F
No. I can be civil and sometimes even 'nice' to people I don't like, though, without pretending.
Magenta · F
No, I don't fake feelings. I will keep my distance and be quite reserved with them.
Lilymoon · F
@Magenta yeah it's hard to hide
No. People generally know where they stand with me. In work situations I was professional with everyone, but I kept interactions with colleagues I found difficult to a minimum.
DunningKruger · 61-69, M
I try to be courteous and neutral with people I don't like when I cannot avoid them.
Jimmy2016 · 61-69, M
🤔........Yes, like our CEO...............She wonders why I don't say much..............
SW-User
I've never been good at faking emotions or feelings
Lilymoon · F
@SW-User yeah it kinda sucks
No reason to be around them to demonstrate.
Snuffy1957 · 61-69, M
Nope.. when I don't like someone they know it
Queendragonfly · 31-35, F
I adapt to the people I'm around and usually if I'm showing interest and wanna talk to them it means I like their person. I'm more quiet if I'm not liking someone but I'm never rude in their face, however online and sometimes irl too I might say a few words or two about why I think someone is disrespectful. So in one way I'm not hiding it but in other ways I am.
SW-User
I like everyone 🙄
Lilymoon · F
@SW-User Lies 🤭
SW-User
@Lilymoon I can hide it well, usually
JustNik · 51-55, F
No. I will typically be courteous and respectful though unless they’re a total asshat who don’t even earn that much.
Lilymoon · F
@JustNik sometimes if the dislike is strong it's hard to be courteous too 😐
WhateverWorks · 36-40
I’m civil, but I keep it at that
smiler2012 · 61-69
{@lilymoon] why be fake with them if they are not your cup of tea for whatever reason that is fair enough you will have valid reasons to think that way
Lilymoon · F
@smiler2012 yeah it's hard tho when everyone else thinks they're great. 🤓
Fullmetal · 51-55, M
No way!! Waste of my energy!
Lilymoon · F
@Fullmetal it's definitely a waste of energy for sure. I'm exhausted. 😬
Ducky · 31-35, F
Only at work, lol.
Raaii · 22-25, F
metaldog · 51-55, F
Haha I can't do it
Jacko1971 · 51-55, M
I don't generally dislike people. There are some who I am not so keen but I am still polite. What I'm not good at is pretending to enjoy myself when I'm not. If I'm at a party I don't want to be at, I find joining in difficult.
Iwantyourhotwife · 22-25
Nah

If I don't mess with you, I don't send false signals to trick you. Keep the streets on respect and genuity. Even for those we don't like
CrazyMusicLover · 31-35
I'm incapable of that. The most I can do is to act neutral and stay away as much as possible.
Lilymoon · F
@CrazyMusicLover yeah I'm becoming incapable as well... it's best for everyone if I avoid.
Dino11 · M
Smile and keep them at an arms length.
BalthazarBlake · 61-69, M
No, I just don't see the point in even keeping company with them.
Im good at making people not like me 👍
Lilymoon · F
@ExperienceDLT I can be that way too tbh
Nah. I'm not an "expert" on fake nice or leading people on.
Pretzel · 70-79, M
I pretty much hate everybody :)
sciguy18 · M
DDonde · 31-35, M
popmol · 26-30, M
yes and no.
laugh when they step on the bus but these filthy smokers should be pushed in front of the bus!
