People who used to crave other people’s approval, how did you fall in love with yourself and decided that your happiness matters more than other people’s opinion of you?
Ed ecco le risposte:
As you grow older you realise that you won’t ever please everybody, so why bother even trying.
As corny as it sounds I told myself throughout the day other people opinion doesn’t matter. I told myself I was a good person. I look good. I started saying self deprecation jokes less. And Less and replaced them with positive kinds. Overtime I grew that I didn’t need anyone approval just my own. I’ve grown to love myself as well.
I’m just gonna leave a comment so I remember to check back and read some of the responses on this post
hey i wanna know too
I simply realized that it’s impossible to please everyone and trying to do so turned me into something I wasn’t. I often times would be one person around a friend and then a different version of me around another friend. It was really weird when all of a sudden I was with both said people at the same time, I didn’t know how to act.
I always looked up to people who were able to just be themselves and take some hate from others and still just stand their ground with ease. So I basically decided I wanted to do the same and so I did. I stopped pretending to like or not like things I didn’t like and I stopped lying to people about myself (not big ones but you know those little white lies that add up). To sum it up, I became really honest to myself first, then others.
In a way I thought to myself “If I can’t please myself, how can I ultimately please everyone else?”. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still really hard to please myself (insert sexual joke below about pleasing oneself) but it’s the constant struggle to better myself that creates a great journey and subsequently ends up pleasing those who matter most.
O and if your going through this and are hurt by people who don’t like you…. FUCK THOSE PEOPLE! They don’t matter. The ONLY people who should matter are the ones that love or like you for who you are. The rest are just dead weight for you to carry around or drop so you can finally run freely!
