17. Oh, I don't disagree

It's true that I'm not big on confrontational arguments (but yes, I DID in fact protest this particular bill), but I don't think I'm a pushover in general or that introverts are more likely to be, at least in my experience.

In any case, it wasn't just politeness or conflict avoidance that made me agree to see the counsellor. Being in hospital is pretty boring by and large, and I thought it would make a welcome break from watching The Rifleman and the home improvement shows. I didn't have my computer or books with me, nor a smart phone.
