It was pointed out to me yesterday that I tend to get along better in small groups as opposed to large groups or one-on-one situations. It was a very astute observation and one that I probably wouldn't have recognized on my own.  I identify as an introvert and don't like huge groups of people I don't know, but I'd presumptively extrapolated from there (without really paying much attention to reality) that small groups were slightly better and that one-on-one was the ideal.

I've been thinking a lot lately about how unhappiness (and conversely, happiness) can be a learned behavior--or habit.  I think this applies both in the sense that people have a default, a (learned) state they tend towards when no outside events are pushing them either way [toward happiness or unhappiness] but also--more interestingly--in the sense that doing (or not doing) things to create happiness is a learned behavior.
