[quote=Anonymous]I have a very difficult time expressing fake happiness or giving fake compliments in situations where it is expected.

I just can't tell someone I love their outfit or hair if I don't. I can't tell ten their singing, poetry or art is amazing if I don't like it. I can't express excitment you are getting married or having a kid if the situation is bad / don't like the guy etc

I am a very realistic person. It annoys me when movies do things that aren't realistic. I don't like any kind of science fiction, and I find flattery and compliments an lip service to be pointless.

This all came to a head because my adult brother has been going though a hard time and has started writing these short stories to deal / express himself and posts them on Facebook. I find them very juvenile and poorly written and I am embarrassed for him that he publicly posts theirs. Yet many of my family heap on praise in the comments and amare telling me I am unsupportive for not doing the same.

It feels dishonest.[/quote]
