kids are mean if they don’t have an adult that cares enough to protect them from their own stupidity/ignorance of consequences. children need to be told what potential consequences look like, or be shown, to a smaller scale, what those consequences might look like. too many parents are terrified of their kids failing because of what it might cost THEM

Like I don’t want to know what people think of me

yeah that’s why it’s hard to listen to people saying that i shouldn’t be so worried about what other people think or how i’m perceived. like sure but then things will happen which is why i try to be proactive. it’s not irrational to want to avoid humiliation if you can help it. it takes me a long time to accept someone as a genuine friend because i’m so scared they’re lying or will eventually hurt me in some capacity.

It starts to matter when you view certain people as your best friends. But, you’re not being invited, everyone gets to voice their ideas except you, then you become the butt of jokes when they evoke a reaction out of you. You can’t just say fuck em its their problem (this is what my parents always told me)… but emotional connectedness is so important to being human, that when you like a group of people, but you dont get the same attention… its a problem and there is nowhere to go.

To my point earlier. I was always advised when I “dwell on negativity” about other peoples thoughts about me because they arent thinking about me… If that were true, they wouldnt find such creative ways to fuck with me and I wouldnt realized im being fucked with.
