This reminds me of that irritating post encouraging people to be okay "just not liking people" without doing any kind of introspection about why. Just like. If you're having a negative reaction to someone, take a second to analyze why, and if they really deserve whatever hostility you're directing their way. Even if you think you're hiding it people can usually tell if someone doesn't like them, and that can wreak havoc on their emotions and self esteem, depending upon their level of confidence and shit giving about the opinions of others. Don't fuck with someone's emotions because you don't want to do the bare minimum of figuring out why you don't like them.

You gotta learn when to take a step back and say "this isn't actually about you, it's a reaction caused by something or someone in my past which you accidentally triggered" or you'll keep projecting whatever bullshit happened in your past onto new people who had nothing to do with the trauma in question.
