A lot of could just be...well how do you approach a subject like that? I don' t mean just checking in saying "howya doing?" but even acknowledging the depth and breadth of something like that is just something a lot of people just can't fucking handle or even begin to handle, so they get weird about it and decide pretending after the fact is a tactic. Which doesn't fucking help, but at the same time, aggravatingly, you can't fault them for not being able to handle it.
