| It really bothers me when acquaintances I have known for several years and see weekly (or more often), shake my hand when they see me, act friendly and say "we will have to get together sometime" and they don't really mean it. I don't know how to play the "let's pretend that I like you and want to b... |

Once I kicked the door on the public bus over and over again because I missed my stop and the driver wouldn't let me out. I was afraid of getting lost.
