@IyelolaIge I don’t know if I’m the only one with reciprocity pressure, I always want to even the score when someone does me a favor even if they say it’s free …it’s annoying for me because now I’m in debt .. I start mental calculating how to repay it….
At least a discount but not free
Today I realized not everyone lives on mnemonics… I thought translating everything into your own weird format was just how humans learned.
Guess we all have different learning styles.. I turn every school info into a stupid song or word & never forget it
