Until it’s you. Then suddenly, your intentions matter. Everyone wants grace for themselves, but rarely wants to extend it to others.
everyone in the replies so shocked & appalled by the fact that a 10 year old can be depressed is the issue btw. why yall have adopted this mindset that children & teens can’t feel emotions so deeply to the point where they can consume you idk. no matter the age they’re humans
i can always tell when someone likes me more as an accessory vs an actual person bc the moment i go off script it’s a problem. i’m not being valued for my authenticity only my ability to placate you.
I recently heard something I can’t unhear: Over 80% of the feedback women receive at work is about their personality; not their work. I know it’s true.
