I think you should rethink your chain of conclusions there, buddy
Nah.
I may have problems expressing this subject, it's complex.
It's about reading body language, those moments when another person is starting to mimic your gestures, is becoming passive,
like there was less and less of person there and more of a puppet.
And I know this because I remember how it felt and worked when roles were reversed.
There is a lot of background emotions that can trigger this kind of synchronization: fear, attraction, feeling inferior, or simply general confusion.
I actually prefer people who don't really try hard in social interactions, it's so much fun when the conversation is just playing with words and it doesn't really matter how good or what you play, you enjoy just the interaction.
But sometimes I meet people who tend to be obsessively focused on saying the right things and making good impression, and I can become mean if I notice that someone is treating the conversation as a constant duel. Such people usually get confused if you play along to raise the bar and then just spiral into absurdity, they can't follow you but already have the image of you as a reliable person because you shared so much opinions just a moment ago...
