All of these, and what you suggest, are variants on the same theme... manipulation without affecting real change. I'm with Sins on this one.

Typical. No sweat off my sack, though.
What have I been saying? Manipulation? Real change?
I have said, and you continue to ignore: Become.
If you conveniently ignore a member's posts and take other posts out of context, you probably are going to come up with something negative.

I've ignored nothing, so your retraction is accepted. In reading your words, you're creating artifices, artificial personality structures in a method of attraction. What makes you think that this sort of person is more appropriate for you than another who responds differently? How long do you except to maintain these facades? Adapting traits and working on yourself is one thing; what you suggest reads like a cheap suit in my eyes, not really doing anything for the person inside. I'll allow that a degree of detachment is a healthy part of any relationship; not that it is a basis for finding them. Take it personally if you wish, but you can knock off with the element of condescension. I've spoken about tending to one's self and cultivating it repeatedly here, and continue to speak when these schemes are posted. The invitation is extended to you - become something more than an actor and charlatan, and be yourself.
