He was very tall, big smile, handsome, very sharp suit. And he shook my hand and he spoke to me for a very long time, about an hour, mostly about my finances, which was surprising because I had a very limited disposable income at the time working as a junior doctor. He built up this fantastic rapport with me.

And at the end of an hour, he said that I should invest in a couple of funds and that he would write a report for me about my finances and all this would be for free. So I was impressed. It sounds great. And since I was tired, I did blurt out, what's in it for you? Well, he responded with, there's no such thing as a free lunch.

And I remember being surprised then because I was working as a junior doctor and we got free lunches all the time from the pharmaceutical reps.

Yeah, I mean, that disclosure of the conflict of interest changed the dynamics of the situation for me. So I did feel less trust in the advice that he was giving me to invest in these funds. But at the same time, I didn't want Dan to know that I no longer trusted him.

I didn't want him to know that his disclosure had corrupted the good rapport that we'd built up and this relationship that we now had over the last hour. And so I started to feel more uncomfortable. I actually felt more pressure to sign and say that I will take the fund's advice, I will invest in the funds that he is recommending.

Because if I don't take his advice now, I'm essentially depriving him of his commission. So both I felt that pressure to be helpful, but I also felt a lot of pressure not to signal distrust.

So insinuation anxiety is a distinct type of anxiety that arises when people worry that their noncompliance with another person's wishes may be interpreted as a signal of distrust. insinuating that the person is not whom they appear to be or should be.
