> f you can't figure it out yourself but ask me questions, if you try a simpler problem first, if you talk and explain what you are doing, if you run your ideas with me asking what I think, if you are determined to figure it out, ask for hints and immediately understand them and get this "aha" moment of how didn't I think of it rather than oh sucks I didn't think of it.
I don't understand what you mean with this sentence. Is this a good thing or not?
> If you are excited about the solution more than the fact I gave you hints for it,
Is this the best way? Gauging a person's emotional response? I'm pretty reserved in general and don't show emotions, but I do get fascinated internally by things, even if I don't intuitively show it. I just don't know how.
It feels like I'm being discriminated against because I'm not an extrovert cheerleader. Now that I know this, I can certainly act happy and excited, just for you.
But that's it: it's acting. I don't understand.
