Took me 48 years to figure out how to like myself and not rely on others for validation. You don’t need the shield if you don’t care what other people think. Easier said than done to get to that point!

Regarding the edited version specifically, if the person isn’t willing to try to understand you, they were a shitty friend anyway. Still hurts to have to find that out, of course.

Many people get annoyed that I often give vague answers. If I over explain myself, they’ll twist my words into a new meaning. I’m confused :D
