i see through folks nowadays because i can always distinguish true authenticity/sincerity when i see it/feel it but most of all because i never underestimate the lengths people will go to receive validation and be liked by others.

but also because i used to have a desperate need to be liked by others and therefore it’s plain as day to me when people aren’t being themselves. the uptightness, the tense body language, the pandering, the cadence/intonation of your voice, the needing/begging eyes. The NEED.

when i cant gauge people because they’re not being themselves it makes me tense/uncomfortable because i don’t know what you’re hiding beneath the mask and i can’t help myself but to indulge my compulsion to rip it off and expose what’s underneath. perhaps it’s the aquarius in me.

(or maybe it’s because i get deep satisfaction from the silent mutual knowingness and naked vulnerability of a person with a successful facade realizing someone finally *sees* them and they’ve been found out.)
