I've realized how much I manipulate people, mostly subconsciously. if I want you to talk with me about something, I'll lie about it, but I'll lie obviously enough that you'll know something's not right and you'll confront me about it. I get to pretend that I'm suffering silently, and *you* are the one bringing it up, while in reality, I wanted to talk or wihne or complain or whatever the entire time. I'm awful.

S'allright. A lot of people do that. I do, but not nearly as successfully as you seem to. The fact that you can recognize that you're doing it is good, though; it's the first step to stopping the abuse of it.
