    No.  I say what I mean and I mean what I say.  Happy Tuesday. :)

    Here's an example L. Someone asks you to provide something and if you do the implication is that further conversation/communication will result therefrom. You do provide it. What happens next? Nothing. Nada. Zilch. So why do people says things they doln't mean? I take people at their word. SIGH. Thank you for your reply! :)

    I accept people at face value.  I don't expect that if I do something for someone, a relationship will ensue.  They don't need to feel they have to keep in touch with me or vice versa.

    So you have no expectations then? No quid pro quo. I see. Thank you for your reply and Happy Thursday to thee!

    Not unless someone says, "If you do this for me, I'll do that for you."  Then I expect them to live up to their end of the bargain.  Happy Thursday. :)

    It depends on whether that person handles my paycheck.

    I will do whatever I need to survive if it is nothing I need to share.  If I broke a rule or something bad, I will take the medicine.  If it is petty, screw it.  I lie.

    No, I don't do that. When I'm in a conversation, rest assured, I mean what I say. :)

    So if you ask someone to provide something to you so that further conversation will ensue you do honor that? If so that's good. If not why say it? Thank you for your reply ru! :)
