    I know it’s a product of its time, but I fail to see how that would make anybody in her position any happier.

      Go talk to a wall, then talk to the same wall with a framed photo on it.

      Guaranteed the frame photo wall will feel better tot talk to.

      Want the modern day equivalent? Talk to someone on zoom/teams/etc with their camera off and realize how difficult that convo is.

        Either way, you’re still actually communicating with someone in your modern day example so I don’t see how that applies.

        Talking to the wall vs a picture? I doubt it would make a difference to me personally, but I know I can be very matter-of-fact in how I look at things so my perspective might be different than most. Still seems like the improvement would be extremely minimal.

        Thanks for the explanations nonetheless.
