Think about it, you’re very sick but you don’t look it, you look perfectly alright and possibly even better than usual. What are the consequences?

Naturally, you’ll get zero sympathy and people are going to think that you’re either faking it or exaggerating. Nobody will remember that you’re sick or take that into consideration while around you, because honestly they don’t really believe you. You do sound upset, angry, or grumpy but sick?!. If you were sick you’d look pale, and you’d be whiny and pretty much a pain in the ass. That is if you left your bed and tried to have a normal day of course.

Not that I’m a sucker for attention or care (even though I gotta admit a little care is nice every once in a while especially when you live alone), but sometimes I wish that people could see when I’m sick so that when I say I am they won’t respond with “really? but you look fine to me!” with doubt in their eyes as to why would I say I’m sick when I look just great; I swear to God it seems like a defect in me sometimes.
