Entry I hate people
Nov 10 2009 00:30


Today, I am disappointed to say, I allowed someone to make me feel shittier about myself than I have in years.

I have this guy at work who jokes around with me a lot. Making inappropriate comments. And its ok, because we laugh about it.

Until today, when it somehow morphed from being a joke to having two other ppl join in and basically laugh at me.

And its my fault, because I let it happen. No one can make you feel bad about yourself without consent. Well, I let them.

And now I just want to cry.

FML.

I really hate myself for allowing this to happen. And now I'm mad at Frank, which sucks because generally I really like him. But right now I just want to punch him in the face.

Whatever, I'm going to bed and hopefully in a few days I'll forget all about it.

sorry... sometimes people don't know their boundaries. Chin up and maybe when he crosses the line with someone else in front of you before laughing, maybe just give him the disgusted look - make him feel a little uncomfy and that usually gives the vibe of "dude what's wrong with you??" and they tend to bite their tongue.

Sorry about today but you'll forget and move on quicker than ya know :)

Have a fantastic week :]

Something to realise......

You dont have to carry other peoples issues....when you are depressed/angry at someone or a situation, you are allowing yourself to carry the other parties problems. the only thing we can change in any situation is ourselves. When someone makes you feel uncomfortable, go inside yourself and remind yourself of who you are, your values, those you love, those that love you.....and if the attack is personally on you, keep everything objective. Do not speak in "you, I, they, I think etc" Just stick to the issue at hand and keep emotionally separated. It is easier said than done I know...but once you done it a couple of times, you will get the hang of it, get confident in yourself..and see the world in a different way.....
