@rkaysgc: As someone who used to be very stubborn and try and fight my corner because “I didn’t mean to upset people” I’ve learned that intention and receipt are two independent things that don’t always sync up. #advice #rkaysgc

Shah Ryhan :

Intentions do matter. A lot of people take things a different way, some people say things that land differently. Understanding that is important.

ℭ𝔥𝔞𝔫𝔞 :

I could genuinely go on and on abt this topic

hilda asante :

like it’s okay to apologize

dexter80871 :

And saying sorry isn’t a big deal too

Sabelo :

way more nuanced than just “make things right”. if someone has lived a life that causes them to be disproportionately sensitive to words and form malicious narratives from nowhere, part of the loving thing to do is help them shift their perspective not just reaffirm their position

Dee :

They meant it and they knew what they were doing because it became a pattern and still said how long you gonna be upset and hurt for

sapphire ❦ :

like i don’t get why people get confused when people react a certain way

user2531467743135898543 :

Khalifa :

I could write a whole essay on this topic🧍🏾‍♀️

Ishanga :

Unfortunately for who?

Mildred 🦋 :

like..how am i supposed to know those words are going to affect you if I don't say them 😭

Sb :

I depends on what you said… and if you truly didn’t intend for them to be hurt and they get hurt it’s ofc not good but that is on the person that got hurt to tell the person that it hurt them. You can’t just get hurt over what someone said and distance yourself from them and expect them to run back and apologise… ofc they can but yeah I mean you are right but it’s not the other person’s fault (if they didn’t intend it) that the person got hurt BUT I think it’s more about maturity and communication

Some people would rather act oblivious than apologise. Act like a victim of no appreciation or gratitude, than take accountability for what they very well know they them self wouldn’t appreciate. Instead of change, act like they “can never be enough” when you too do so much for them. Ignore all the grace you give them because one time you pull back. Feel self righteous and re write the narrative instead of look how selfish and unnecessary their words and actions can be. Empty barrels make the most noise anyway so it says a lot about them, but sometimes it’s ugly enough to make you feel put off. and anyone can make excuses for their weird behaviour, & convince themselves that they’re a victim, like youre the issue when you finally don’t want to put up with it. People know exactly what they’re doing and saying especially when it’s very unnecessary. Because if they didn’t know what they’re doing they wouldnt suspect it’s personal. Especially when what they’re saying is saying a lot more. Especially when it’s an insecure behavioural disease. When they rob them self of you yet cry about your reaction. Sometimes conversation doesn’t bring change. Because someone focussed on skinning you alive cannot change until they change what’s within themselves. sometimes thats enough to just know. Sometimes; just sometimes you just let it be, wish them well & act accordingly.
