Random moment of navel-gazing

I just realized that I have an immensely strong aversion to any pressure to feel or express non-genuine interest in something or someone.

Usually, this applies to people. For instance, if I'm supposed to be very friendly with someone I don't actually like, it drives me up the wall. And it's even worse if I know for a fact that the person in question either doesn't like me back, or doesn't like me (for instance, someone who doesn't know me well enough to actually like me for real, or someone who only likes what they wish I was, and not what I really am.) Physical contact is the worst of this. Anyone pressuring me to hug or touch strangers or people I'm not actually close to? Will likely face my wrath.

But it can also apply to other things, too. I don't like pretending that I like a movie or something, or pretending that I want a particular food when I really don't.

Most of the time, I'd much rather just be honest about how I really feel, but at the very minimum, I'd rather be allowed to just keep my mouth shut or otherwise be noncommittal than have to lie or actually act in ways that pretend interest that's not actually there.

And also? I hate it when people do this to me, too. For the love of FSM, do NOT lie to me about how you feel about me, or about something I've done or something I'm interested in or whatever. If you like me, please, do be open about it, but if you're just blowing smoke up my ass--whether because you're trying to get something from me or you just feel obligated somehow--just don't.

I imagine there are fairly obvious Deep Reasons for all this, for the most part. But also, I just really hate dishonesty in general.
