One thing

I've realized yet another thing, recently. Manipulation really irks me. People who want me to be how they see me, and not how I am bother me. I may like them otherwise, but that one trait is very troubling.

maya, people can't help seeing with only what they have, and the reason is that they just don't have it in them to see otherwise.

so of course they won't want you do be what they don't have it in themselves to recognize.

but...

That's a different question, if related. But when they'd probably like you better if they could see who you really are to some extent? Or when it seems to be pure stubbornness?

Heh. You're trying in a way that's obvious enough that I can duck it, and I'm used to it from you, so it doesn't bother me much. You're just having fun- you stay away from playing with my emotions, mostly (at least when I'm unhappy), and therefore, it's ok. But thanks. I was mostly kvetching about people who do such things to someone who's hurting really get my goat.
