Ted, It’s all situational. I’ve watched it happen enough times now, that it all makes perfect sense to me. Off the top of my head the best I can come up with to describe it is that the respect or “niceness” is earned. When one earns this from the alpha, he will reciprocate it if he wishes to (on his own terms.) Many people will work to earn this respect and will work even harder to keep it. Ted D February 20, 2012 at 2:11 pm Thank kinda makes sense. I dont really deal with people that I dont already know and respect if I can help it at all, which means the people I communicate with the most are already past that “threshold” for lack of a better term. I ignore most people, so I wouldnt know if they wanted my respect or not. And frankly, I could.care less if they did. The people i do respect earn it by respecting me in return. Of course, I do have a basic of respect for people as human beings, but that mostly applies in terms of not treating people badly in general. Is that a bad thing? I never thought so before, but it seems like perhaps a weakness. Pretty sad if believing in human decency goes against what is best for the individual.
