Have you ever....
Been thinking about this a bit more seriously, and realised, that actually, I do pretend to be interested in stuff to please another person. When I look around my family, they do too. What do I think of them for it? I bluddy love em!!! :bounce:
I know what nativity is, been in loads of plays, heard the story squillions of times, know what's going to happen and what the ending is ...... yet still sat there through both the kids plays year in year out :undecided:
Yeh they were good, very cute, but I wasn't overly interested in the play ........... until my little angels done their line!! Then I was bursting with pride, sooooooooo wonderful :inlove: :smile2:
When the kids asked me afterwards if I enjoyed their play/assembly/sports day/show, I always went on about how brill it was, fab story, fab scenery, how well they done, comment on what happened blah blah blah - would never say no it was crap, only went cos you were in it and made it brilliant!!
Wouldn't dream of it. I went to all their plays/assemblys like I couldn't wait for the next one and sat there "riveted" for an hour and a half, when in reality I was just waiting for their line....... or even worse, waiting for the songs cos they were chorus and nowt to do with the play :?
My sister in law used to go and watch my brother playing hockey every week. Don't think she ever enjoyed the game, but used to go along for support. After the game when he was still hyped up exclaiming
Did ya see me did ya did ya huh huh? :bounce:
Did ya see what I done huh? :bounce:
She was there chatting to him about the game, how good he played and what cheats the other side were if they won etc........ half the time her eye wasn't on the game, cos had formed a rather fun social group with the other wives/girlfriends and spent the whole time nattering.
He would've been so deflated if she had've turned around and told him the games shite and she didn't enjoy it at all
There are a fair few examples of when I do it/see it.
So I suppose, if it made someone happy, then I would pretend, actually not even pretend, but get myself involved and interested in something (and then make the effort to join in their enthusiasm :happy: ). If it made no difference, had no impact, then I wouldn't make the effort to be involved.

Sex God
Good point Missy, I think we've all done that and somehow managed to justify it too.
Shows it's not so clear cut.

Thank you
Must admit I was a 'noway would I do that', until tonight when my youngest was showing me photos on her phone, which meant nothing to me, and had to have each one explained ....... still means nothing :confused:
She thinks I'm fascinated with the park up the road and what's there and the friends she went with
Made me realise tho :D
Looking back on some of the replies, one sticks in my mind... about being found out.
I have spoken to people in the past who have told "white lies" about liking things, and then being found out, and have had a lot of trouble because of it.
They can come back to bite you, another example was a friend who said she liked chilli (thinking of the olive post) and her partner bought her everything to do with chilli, I think she still has some in her cupboard to this day which she has never used. In reality she couldn't stand the stuff!
bbw_lover made a valid point about having different interests, and this does make relationships of any kind more interesting.
Thank you all for posting!

I once ate trifle cos my mate had just moved into her first house with her fiance and invited us for a meal....she cooked tuna curry :shock: and made a trifle....without the use of a fridge to set the jelly....she had put it to set in her porch because it was the middle of winter.
She had gone to so much trouble, and looked so proud when she walked out with this trifle that i didnt have the heart to say i didnt like it....so I ate it.
Now those who know me (and most of you dont!!) will know that my ALL TIME worst EVER vilest food is cold solidified custard such as the kind found in a layer of make it yourself birds packet trifle.
Every single mouthful felt like I was swallowing slugs (spawns of satan that THEY are too), It took a gargantuan effort not to barf everywhere, but i managed it...and the look on her face when i complemented her on her first 'dinner party' was worth it....still makes me shudder when I think about it tho, and this was about 16 years ago :shock:
