/lit/ - Literature

There's a power in silence. You'd be astonished just how well you can get someone to like you if you're willing to be a tampon of their emotional energy. Let them talk at you for hours about nothing other than their favorite subject: themselves, while contributing nothing in return but a sympathetic ear. Feigned or sincere it matters not, and they'll adore you for it. They'll adore you because they adore themselves. You are the river and they are Narcissus.
