The art of trying to make it look like someone's got a choice while narrowing their own ability to choose what they want to do.
Example: -
Person 1: - It's your choice but would you like to take your brothers and sisters out to the shops or the park.
Person 2: - '*thinks* "well I wasn't planning to take them, but you'll moan if I don't :| err empty choices Oo"' the parks fine.
Person 1: - Great, well it's your choice remember...
Person 2: - *Sigh* yup :/

"Charlie, don't you get it? I can't feel that. It's sweet and everything, but it's like you're not even there sometimes. It's great that you can listen and be a shoulder to someone, but what about when someone doesn't need a shoulder. What if they need the arms or something like that? You can't just sit there and put everybody's lives ahead of yours and think that counts as love. You just can't. You have to do things."
