Masking: are we any good at it?

Ben

Since re-reading Gilly Knitter's thread 'What does unmasking look like'  I've been a bit lost in thought........

Until two or three years ago I'd never come across the term 'masking', and upon hearing it immediately thought 'I do that'...  but now find myself wondering if I've been any good at it.

In everyday work and play I've never fitted in and am sure that others have noticed; in fact many have been abrupt and quite rude about it. So maybe I'm not as good at masking as I first thought..... or does the mask slip a little?

I really don't know.

  • My wife thinks that masking makes me seem more weird, not less, as I'm mostly just completely silent when masking. She thinks if I unmasked with people, as I do with her, and just say what I want to say, people will find me more "normal" even if they don't agree with/understand everything I say.
