Okay sorry some stuff fairly obvious, eg standing on one leg to another, trying to preen eg putting hands though hair, at one point laying hands on face entirely...

Then touching pockets, hands in and out of pocket.

Then when contact made (previous was before door answered), again lots of tweaking of clothes, moving, says something like "come around" but touches nose in a strange way when says it. Asks after family member but sort of looses breath when asking then cuts straight into more nosey questions.

I'll try though.

One leg to another. Needs wee? Embarrassing itch? Bad circulation? Uncomfy shoes?

Hands in hair and on face.
Paranoid about hair?
Habit?
Both hands on face. Like. Stroking? Head in hands?

Nose could be coke.

It sounds like really weird behaviour. Really twitchy. It would make me uncomfortable.

I would agree that they're somewhat tweaked.

CheeseMmmm · 11/11/2021 23:31

What does tweaked mean?

If it means high then I agree tbh. Typical coke behaviour.

Gosh that's interesting, I'd expect this person to be the last on earth on coke but perhaps explains the level of "discomfort".

Constantly touching their clothes around the neck, hand in pocket then out, but the both hands to face in interested me, yes touching nose when saying "come over".

I've never ever seen this person enjoying our company or dh company when "" over "so I can imagine that's masking a lie.

I find it interesting because this person is retired now but used to pride themselves on being winners and never bulking at a deal, kicking fellow staff under tables during negotiations to never balk. Being hard and tough.... It was strange to see this.

@CheeseMmmm

It's just ring footage. It's a video door bell when someone rings our door bell, only when they press it records. And when they door is answered we can hear what's said ect.

Lost confidence due to retiring? Sounds like work was a big source of self esteem etc.

They just sound really uncomfortable.

Could be anxiety as well.

Naughtynovembertree · 11/11/2021 23:48

Well been retired about 5 ish years and been in local government since then.
It was interesting to see someone whose been so incredibly cocky behave like this really, cocky and totally disrespectful and I wondered if anyone could interpretation the bigger "actions".
