Interesting theory  Then again if I saw someone drowning in the water or something, I wouldn't let them die because they didn't give me the magic word! But it's a valid point, "he greeted me, I know him now, I have to help him". |

that is so true. My husband keeps asking me "are you alright?" and i got sick of it. I told him straight that if something was bothering me, he'd be the first to know! |

| N never initiates a conversation unless she needs something, and spends all her free time away from us. Oh, and she's only in two days a week anyway. She seems like a nice person, so what can I do to help get to know her? She sounds just like me, maybe we're colleagues :lol: I thought only NTs coul... |

i don't mean "happy new year" because we already say that and it does not seem to affect the good day tradition  |

Exactly, people react a certain way that just doesn't come to me.
Like when my conductor at the orchestra told me I'd play the concert on a grand piano. It's good news but I didn't react and i think he was upset or something. Usually I take the information and that's it. |

| Willard, I 'care' because i deal with clients at work, clients with their pathetic lives, and small talks. I need to be nice to them or i'll get kicked out.
