since i came of age I’ve gotten much better at expressing my own opinions even if they directly contradict the ones of those i love and care about and i consider that progress. (not even talking political here like. saying i don’t care for a certain food. declining an invitation to do something ik will drain my energy and make me miserable but instead telling them to have fun and attentively listening to them talk about it after.) saying no does not make me a bad person and in fact preserves my capacity to be a more decent one
#people pleasing is fucking hard to break out of ok#especially when you got punished for NOT doing it as a kid#and working in food service im literally required to have my own opinions when ppl ask so *shrug*#apparently developing social skills goes hand in hand with becoming more yourself and realizing things abt yourself and i was NOT prepared#like at all lol#original post
