A lot of people don’t know how to express their emotions or vent to people about them so they just hold them inside and show happiness on the outside. Most people who act like this are the funny one in the friend group that try to make others happy all the time. https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/5gghxna1h211isri/wish/1407693875 2021-04-12 14:54:25 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/5gghxna1h211isri/wish/1407693875 Only loners need time away from people. https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/5gghxna1h211isri/wish/1407711378 I answered with False, because everybody needs time away from people to reset on things. It also builds a strong relationship over time. ]]> 2021-04-12 14:57:27 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/5gghxna1h211isri/wish/1407711378 Most people don’t have common sense https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/5gghxna1h211isri/wish/1407716645 I answered false because I feel that almost everyone has common sense but some people just don’t use it.]]> 2021-04-12 14:58:21 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/5gghxna1h211isri/wish/1407716645 “Most people don’t have common sense.” https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/5gghxna1h211isri/wish/1407722504 I find this false because everyone has some form of common sense, but whether they decide to use it or not, that’s a different story.]]> 2021-04-12 14:59:24 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/5gghxna1h211isri/wish/1407722504 Buying things makes me feel good https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/5gghxna1h211isri/wish/1407726423 True and false, if i buy a tv for $400, yay i have a tv but oh no I just spent three paychecks worth for one item. Disney plus better be worth it]]> 2021-04-12 15:00:07 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/5gghxna1h211isri/wish/1407726423 Most people are unhappy but pretend like everything is ok. https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/5gghxna1h211isri/wish/1407735252 This is very true. A lot of people mask themselves with happiness and laughter when they’re with people, but when they’re all alone the mask comes off, and everything falls apart.]]> 2021-04-12 15:01:41 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/5gghxna1h211isri/wish/1407735252
