I don’t know if this qualifies (probably doesn’t) but When I meet a new person, I like to act like a smart guy at first and then act like a moron afterwards. It feels nice for some reason.
I wanna say I could do or try this but I’m way to OCD figuratively speaking to see it through. I hate dumbing myself, particularly in the emotional realm, even tho it would often be significantly advantageous and less work and affirming for me
You wouldn’t happen to have siblings? I wonder how many “complexes” or mentionable issues have their root in sibling-orthogonal or straight-up adjacent or full-blown causative matters…
Kinda feel like i literally ran through the gamut of possible qualifiers but I hope you get my attempt here
Yes I do have a brother. I like him even though he’s not exactly a bright person.
But I wouldn’t classify this as a “complex”. Perhaps I should have explained it further. When I meet a new person, let’s say I saw them in a hallway and decided to talk and vice versa, I talk about philosophy, books, art, humanity’s issues etc. (Not pretending to know about those) But after we split and see each other again, I talk about stupid/pointless stuff. Such as “If I were a tree I would drop my apples on random people’s heads”
I never bring up philosophy and stuff unless they bring it up or there is something around us that reminds me of it.

I’m the opposite lol, I pretend I don’t know anything at all, even if it’s something I’m fairly familiar/comfortable with
