[malignstar]

Yeah, and they can probably word things better so everyone has a good time.

[tradesecret]

Does that mean you doubt your ability to do that?

[malignstar]

It means I'm still wrapping my head around what people are okay about sharing and what comes across as too intrusive or isolating.

[tradesecret]

I guess that's a tough balance. How's that working out for you?

[malignstar]

Haven't tried it since the kissing game? Made too many people uncomfortable at the time.

[tradesecret]

Really? That's a surprise, I found you quite polite.

[malignstar]

Glad to hear it. But it takes the fun out of things when people see it as a hit to their self-esteem. I don't mind teasing, but making people feel bad is another thing.

[tradesecret]

That makes sense. If you're concerned about how your words may come off, you could always run them by someone else first.

[malignstar]

Oh, I don't think it's the words. I think it's the nature of the polls I run. They're just a little too personal, I'm realizing, and I can't always expect people to just play along.
