People are just freaking weird and hard to please!
I admit that I am a negative person, not always and 100% negative but not bubbly and naively positive.
I don’t always give motivations but worst case scenarios. I sometimes forget to sugarcoat. So now, a few of my close ones are telling me that I should learn to be positive and always speak positive.
Fine, so I fake myself by hiding my worst honest opinions and only giving that few “socially correct” response with some of my not so pleasing opinions. I don’t just sugarcoat but drown them in sugar or silence.
They seems to love hate it. Often thinking I am not genuine and trying to brush them off. Hmm, how can I be genuine when I am not allow part of my opinions because they’re negative?
Sometimes I could feel they’re intentionally cutting me off when they THINK the conversation is going to turn negative. But fact is I am just sharing a video/article I saw.
I don’t know why communication have turn into something so tiring. It’s either they talk about the shit they care about and cut me when I tried to share what I care about OR I just listen but not actually listening to their boring stories because I know my opinions doesn’t matter. I don’t see the to and fro because it’s cut.
I have been thinking hard because this is happening with my family and a close friend. So is it really that I am so irksome when I talk?
