    Urgh - It’s like when you have 40 legitimate reasons for disliking your own mother and your friend criticizes her for her cooking. “Actually, she has been nothing but kind to YOU, and one of the only good traits is her cooking. STFU bitch”

    It’s a weird feeling.

    because no one is a harsher critic of me than myself, and I know on levels of staggering depth just how awful things COULD be. If they only knew. Clearly they are insufficiently enlightened to form an informed opinion.

    I’ve always been a bit puzzled as to why so many people, especially the elderly, seem to like me so much. I do have good manners but I’ve never exactly been much of a people pleaser. From time to time I even worry that what if I just unconscioussly manage to manipulate people to like me or I’m simply just so good at hiding who I truly am.

    Then again when I get into an argument with someone online and they call me an asshole, all I can think of is “well yes, I am, but in this particular case you’re just misunderstanding me”

    you dislike me because I’m vague, inconsistent, and can never finish what I started.

    I hate me because of
