The Experiement

We all know that Bill is fond of yours truly. I mean, how can he not be? We spend a great deal of time together, including making trips to the kitchen to get beverages quickly.

I have decided to try an experiment. I call this experiment: "saying 'no'." Every now and again, I'm just going to turn his invitations down. Why? Not to manipulate him into realizing that he misses me, but because I need to not see him as much.

Late in the day he asked me to join him in the kitchen for water. I said I had to watch something for a few minutes, but if he wanted to wait, he could. He opted to not wait. I know it sounds benign, but it was a good thing for me. Hopefully I can keep this up.
