Absolutely agree. I remember pretty much faking it when XW1 was coming to something with OM. I forget the occasion but it was for the kids; I put on my best jeans and a new shirt, got my haircut, wore some expensive cologne, and put an awesome grin on my face.
I even practiced some jokes - "fake it 'til you make it". It ended up being an awesome night, my kids were so happy, and I started to really detach at that point.
