I think I do tend to push/pull in other relationships too; mainly friendships. When i very first started talking to T i told a friend about a "heated conversation" we had about her leaving me and no point in bonding with her etc. and my friend just said something like "...yep. She's definitely getting to see real Teal." Lol.

I know i test my friends and they almost always fail (except lately) but mostly because they don't even know they're being tested. BestieM says he fails his tests because we don't see each other face to face anymore and i can disguise everything else (tone, body language, conversation topic) quite well.
