Funny thing, dishonesty. It's not a personality trait. You know, someone isn't dishonest, they're either telling the truth or they're not, it isn't a habit, it isn't something they are, like lazy or irritable first thing in the morning. Dishonesty is a choice. So no, Holly. I don't think you're milking me for money, there's nothing I want from you that you could play into to get it. So could you, theoretically play me hard for what you could get? Of course. Do I think you're about to turn around and do it? That's a different question.
I don't think you're fucking things up for him. I think people are people, and they're all self-involved shits, when you scrape a little past the veneer. Perhaps his perspective on you is a prompt for them to look a little harder, past their own hurt feelings, or whatever it is. But I think it's wonderfully short-sighted of people to decide to see no good at all in someone they did before, because they're into someone they can't see anything in at all. Doesn't it sound wilfully blind?
I'm not surprised. It sounds like life is collectively pissing on you right now, unceasingly. Can I do anything to help, or is this more of a listening ear sort of thing?
