But what if you're the one upon whom conditions have been placed? What if you're a third party who is neither imposer or imposee?
I would have to read specific examples for each of these two possibilities, in order to specify further how I would proceed. But if I try to approach these possibilities in general (and if I understand correctly what each of them describes), then: for the
