Zero Edge I have never met a manipulator that wasn't friendly or nice. Ever. They are always so nice, have the most heartfelt and emotional stories, and so personable. I trust jerks way more. They aren't trying to get you to like them. They aren't trying to butter you up or tell you what you want to hear. They are real. Fake people are the worst. Your existence is to serve them and their will. They don't care about you, they are about taking as much from you as they can. Manipulators and liars are cut from the same cloth. Distance yourself from their mind games. Reminds me of Proverbs 26:28.
