How to behave when you’re the best listener in the world
First of all, you're not. Multitasking makes you a shallow listener, not a better one.
The same with "I read a novel in three hours." That's not reading. That's scanning. It's not because you're smarter and serious readers don't take you seriously when you say that. This behavior reflects itself in your own writing, which rarely bothers with the power of word choice.
It's been a long time since you tried to concentrate around me. For the most part I've forgotten how insulting it is to be around someone who is always looking for the next buzz or endorsement. This is why I laughed in terror when you published your reiki certification news. What—a 3 second session, a certain energy assumption, all while sending texts to others?
No thank you. This is the opposite of the love I need. After living with you, I don't want to be scanned by another human being, ever again. And you are not my peer. You hate men for one thing. Peers don't hate each other. Furthermore, your two-second peer reviews are sloppy, careless, and you hurt people often.
Be a good person. Read slowly. Don't brag about how you can multitask. No one's impressed—and some people just think you never got over law school, which is a gross way to behave.
Multitasking is not a skill—it's a symptom of Addison's Disease. Corregulate with humans and animals and you won't feel the need to judge and meditate 24/7. Peace will come naturally. You will glimpse your hidden nurturer and your reiki sessions will actually be sincere (I doubt they'd ever be valuable—do you have any repeat customers? But they might not be fraudulent.).
