The ones who play nicely. I don't need angry, hurtful care. +5

I probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference. +5

If you are around a schitzophrenic, you can have them both.

Be around people who act nice to me but don't really mean it.

I'd choose the people with manners, because I'm better at detecting phony politeness than determining whether a hard-@$$ed person likes me. To me, if the person doesn't try to check his/her aggressive tendencies around me, then I conclude that he/she really must not care all that much. Being mean to someone we love usually drives them away eventually.

Neither. If I had to choose
between those, I'd rather become
a hermit. But there are other
people fortunately.

I don't think we have a choice.

They may be stern maybe that's their personality BUT if they're mean and aggressive that's something else. Then I don't think they truly care about you deep inside.

I hate superficialness so the second one.

I'd rather be around people with manners, even if they don't "mean it" (whatever that means).
For the most part, people have different persona's in public then they do in their private life anyway - that's just a fact of life, and one I can live with. Why torture myself with jerk's who make me feel like crap in the name of some sort of "tough love"? +3

I'd take the former if they were entertaining.
In the meantime, I'd minimize my time with them, get a pet, and spend the rest of my free time looking for nice people who really care about me.

I strongly dislike phonies; but I also have a low tolerance for nasty people.
LoL I would probably put both them in their place.
by AnonymousGirl on November 1st, 2009
I'd rather be around people who act mean/aggressive, but truly do care about me deep inside, but only if that's the vibe I get from them. Also, it depends on what you mean by "mean/aggressive".
Which is more important asking a question or getting an answer for it?

Do you feel that God will truly intervene in man's affairs and put an end to this world of wickedness.

Well said. I agree.

@Philis
You prefer malicious manipulators
pretending to be friends?
by Anonymous T on November 1st, 2009
I was given two options, neither of which are my reality. I figured that, as long as we aren't dealing in reality, I might as well enjoy the freedom.
by Phillis - Zacks little sister on November 2nd, 2009
OK. :)
