Once I started just being honest about my social battery/commitment limit, I realized literally everyone either feels the same way or understands. I haven’t had a single negative reaction to saying something akin to the last sentiment. People appreciate it over a white lie, and if they don’t, they’re not worth the time.

    I'm sure some appreciate it but the white lie exists for a reason. Because people don't believe it when someone expresses that their social battery or mental energy is down.
