I still think that would be fair, actually, since we’re talking about just you and me again and not everyone I’ve pissed off. But you know what? You’re the one that’s manipulative. I only asked for your time and to get to know you better. Now the deal is you’re withholding your friendship until I change because you don’t like this me? Be a normal person and just say you don’t like me and you don’t want to be friends. If you need lessons in how to do it brutally, ask Eiffel.
