Read on Twitter
I read a lot of comments freaking about this bc theyre interpreting it as a green light to be mean to someone. I don’t think that’s what it’s saying. It’s just saying don’t be afraid to say you need something to feel better...? Which I think is fine. https://twitter.com/veedybro/status/1264707898539675650">https://twitter.com/veedybro/...
I think it takes a lot of maturity to find the balance between “I need this for me to feel better and I’m sorry that you don’t understand” and “I’m going to completely disregard others that I care about at the expense of their feelings”.
Like it doesn’t have to be a bad thing idk why everyone can’t just be like... sensitive I guess? Like I’m not always gonna understand people I love but I’m not gonna get mad when they need something I don’t understand in order to feel better. That’s just immature.
like I’m a talker. I need to talk about my feelings until I understand them or write it down, etc. as I’m doing now. But a lot of people I love are different than that and it’s okay and I don’t think anything they do to feel better even has anything to do with me.
It’s hard to learn to not take things personally when someone else is mad about things that have nothing to do with you. but that’s show biz baby & ya just gotta keep goin’. That’s been my hardest lesson in life, work, love... etc.
I’m honestly really just talking to myself here but yeah the comments under that first tweet annoyed me. Like there’s a difference between someone genuinely hurting you, and just needing something for their own mental health and it’s important to know the difference.
Like literally I could even break it down for myself... my dad, sister, best friend and bf are all the types that need MAJOR space when they’re upset. My mom, most of my coworkers and I... we just talk and talk and talk in circles. Pros and cons to both.
I’m even just talking to myself now on this thread. Honestly what this account is for. I’ve learned a lot to talk to just MYSELF first because sometimes it makes my thoughts clearer when I finally get to present them to others. Strange balance. Growth is good.
At the end of the day I’m just really thankful to be growing, ambitious and be surrounded by others with goals and the ability to emotionally communicate in a productive way. Life is too hard sometimes to not have your corner and I’m thankful for mine..straight gratitude today
