+ next time NG has a business trip, decline accompanying him. Instead, line up evenings with friends and be out
+ be vague, smile a lot. I have a problem in wanting to be transparent. This has not worked, so maybe I'll try vague, and maybe even vacant, for a while
+ dress up more interestingly when going to work. NG is asking me more about what I'm doing during my day, so with the vagueness, the dressing up should be interesting
+ re-start gym program, pick one that has lots of singles
