imo if people don't like me, it is what it is. But if you absolutely have to work alongside them and there's no way around it, it's a good idea to have someone else to vent to about it

My mom had a toxic workplace, and the boss was a toxic narcissist too. She'd come home every evening and recount the day's events to my dad. Sometimes I'd listen in... one time the boss ran out of the store and yelled at a customer. People are just crazy .-.

I tend to think of myself as an annoying person too. My cousin told me the very same when I was a preteen, and the words stuck with me for a long while. But I've learned to accept it... it helps me weed out the insincere people from the real ones. 👀

We're individual people

[Silky Silver]

and we're all completely allowed to feel however we feel.

[Silky Silver]

It's what we do with those feelings that's more important.

You can feel hurt, sad, upset, and not lash out or take it out on the other person.

Unlike a certain boss.

There are ways to communicate constructively.

[Silky Silver]

However, if the other side is not in the same mindset

[Silky Silver]

or has the same willingness to listen and comprehend what you said

[Silky Silver]

proper communication will not work.

[Silky Silver]

It takes two people to have a relationship

[Silky Silver]

Friendship, family, or romantic

[Silky Silver]

Two sides with the same goal in mind.

[Silky Silver]

If the two sides do not have the same goal

[Silky Silver]

or the same intentions

[Silky Silver]

this is one of the biggest reasons why relationships fail

[Silky Silver]

right next to a lack of communication.
