the liability of masked partners

I don't watch TV much, it's too slow. But I did spend many years watching TV on dates, as partners enjoyed it. This led me to understand that many people seek relationships where they can "unmask" in private, because their public social strategy depends on facades. I am good at facilitating comfort, but it is a pure expense to me - I am publicly vulnerable, and have little to unmask in private. So nowadays I aggressively filter against the trait of comfort seeking, in partnerships.
