They say it is good to know the truth about yourself.

People avoid this topic in situations where some people are in a good position and others are in a bad position.  They secretly don't want bad people to be found out; people, in general, like to keep bad people going because they feel inferior to good people and don't want them to get ahead.

They say you "compartmentalize" negative parts of life to protect other parts of life.  Like, you may be anxious around your parents and "quarantine" that to save for other relationships.

People "tell off" others trying to socialize with people that they should just focus on socializing with their parents.

They say people say people taken on special roles, like "parent," "lover," or "athlete."

People like to glamorize the roles of those who are more of the "parent" type than any other.

One reason is that it's what people do, themselves, when they feel they are too old to have parental figures who are born in a certain generation, these days.  They take on more of a "parent" role.

People also wish parental figures would parent them and so focus on them more and being on their "good side."  It wasn't popular to admit, but people act in a way that they are admitting it, these days.  Parental figures wish younger people would have been more respectful and "open" socially, before.

True, people are in a hurry and give abrupt judgments and snap decisions as to what the situation really is concerning their fantasies on how life should go for other people and find ways to take charge, here.  They must be excited and flustered, hoping things go their way more and more.

"Your Relationship Bill of Rights"

pages 72 - 79

The magazine attempts to conclude, including the idea that marrying fixes mental disorders, and it looks more like they are describing and hitting at a "coming of age."

"Tangled in Turmoil"

page 65

"Borderline personality disorder embodies a most poignant paradox: Sufferers yearn for closeness, but their attempts to fill emptiness inside drive away those most dear..."

"Those with BDP go about the world with brain signals constantly telling them people are threatening."

Some people may be manually prevented from desired interactions, which people thrive on for vitality, while others may be getting it.

They may feel threatened because they feel shame socially.

"pov" - "Prevention, Not Reaction"

page 47 & 48

These 2 quotes were featured in this article.

"Even when schools identify mentally ill students with 'red flag' behaviors, administrators can't request additional information from clinicians who treat them."

"It should be possible to speak up without necessarily destroying a young person's educational prospects or ultimate life goals."

I was always about perfectly well-behaved and well-mannered, as well as normal and fun.

These quotes are true for me, and I feel my "ultimate life goals" and "prospects" have been compromised.

"Insights" - "Are Suspicious People Smarter?" and "Vulnerable Moments"

page 11 & 23

There are 2 articles in an American magazine, in the same section, that include a look at what Germans say, each article with a different author.

The first is statistics and/or an opinionated report from Germany.  It's about people in general, about how intelligence and pessimism relate.

The second is recent German university students.  It's about what they think about showing vulnerability, in life situations, in general.
