I’m not going to waste my time on idiots, moochers, degrading, controlling, manipulative, sons of bitches. I’m tired of those people and what they tend to put me through. They constantly drag me down, throw a guilt trip or 12, and feed off all of the energy saved up inside of my body, my mind, and my spirit. I’m doing me from here on out, and I don’t give two fucks what anyone has to say about it.
Mind games are useless, and no longer am I going to play them or have them played against me. It’s so disgusting, and makes me feel so dark and horrid. Honesty is what I’m choosing, even if it hurts. I’m going my own way, the long way.

I think you will be pleased with both the efficiency and the efficacy of this approach, despite whatever discomfort it may predictably cause.
I lol’d at “throw a guilt trip or 12”
Be honest. Be yourself. Take no shit, give no fucks, make no apologies (unless you want to).
Define yourself, for yourself. It’s not something anyone else should do for you. No one else will ever be as qualified to do that, as you.
It really is the best way.
I started thinking this way several years ago and it’s become an ingrained tendency for me now, but the result is I’m in a perpetual state of confusion because I never know why the people in my life are doing such seemingly arbitrary and insane things, or why it’s still fucking impacting my life. You can change you, but you can’t change them, unfortunately.
”When people are trying to bring you down it only means that you are above them”
You can still pay attention and understand, without willingly participating in those “games.” You almost always have the power to choose your response, even if you can’t always avoid an externally generated circumstance.
But once you understand why people do seemingly arbitrary things, you don’t really have to think about it anymore.
People often do stupid and insane things, for stupid and insane reasons. What’s so confusing about that? lol.
It will still impact your life, because you don’t exist in an isolated microcosm, and the choices made by others, can still impact the environments we all share.
Even if someone is yelling obscenities in your face, that doesn’t mean you have to give a damn, or spend time thinking about it. You can let them finish, and walk away… or walk away while they yell at your back. Though i would caution you not to turn your back on someone who might stab you in it.
People will always judge you to some degree. You don’t have to value or validate their opinions, if they form them in ways with which you disagree, or base them on criteria you find invalid. In many cases, you are the one who gets to decide whose opinions of you, matter to you. You only have to “care” what other people think, if their perspective motivates them toward actions which impact you (good or bad).
If someone says something that doesn’t make sense, or is wrong, you can ask “what makes you think that?” This will rock the minds of many. If they overwhelm you with a flood of nonsense, you can simply decide they are too far gone to understand, and say “you are too far away from being able to understand.”
You don’t have to explain anything to someone who won’t listen.
