HOW do you find out what someone truly thinks of you.. over the years we were asked " do you go to the local pub ?. " . simply say. used to. but we were banned !! and wait. their response will tell you all you need to know.

A few years back when the smoking ban came in.

We stopped going to pubs, cafes etc .

Got fed up standing outside in the rain.

So when asked the question. We/I simply wait.

WHY, were you banned. And before you can reply.

We're you fighting?

Did you get caught stealing?

Etc

Etc

Answering " no"

Simply, smile as they get angry with us/me.

Saying "why ,then."

Control. And worse. But thanks for that. Saves us/me a lot of precious time. BYE.

Result 

Peace
