Habit and acceptance are not the same thing. Sometimes habit is a way of life that cannot be helped. It probably means that I can’t stand you but can’t get rid of you.

North Pole

In this world, there are also some people who pretend to cry in agreement, but my personal experience is different. Anyway, I didn’t feel like crying at the time, and there was no fluctuation. I can't do hypocrisy and hypocrisy, so I didn't cry.
