Acknowledge me positively when entering a room. Neutral engagement or non-acknowledgment is not hurtful, but over time it erodes me. And when a person walks in and immediately says something critical before even saying hi, well, it's a goddamned wound.

All I'm asking is a brief smile, as if to say "hey, I don't hate that you're here."
