Why is it

Post Reply New Topic

That life seems to be about nothing but people trying to enforce their will and views upon me? It seems to be the secret motive behind everything. Every criticism levelled is in fact nothing more than an attempt by someone to place themselves higher than me. I realise now, it's not really about what I do when I get criticism, but about the person. They are trying to make themselves superior to me and destroy my sense of resolve.

Any conversation is them trying to convert my opinion to theirs. If I do not convert to their opinion, then they will essentially verbally attack me until I am broken. If I do not have their views, they again, will attack me until I submit, whether that is physically or verbally. I don't know if I can trust anyone or if people will ever stop trying to attack and break me.

Technically, I can't really trust anyone here, but maybe you'll talk more sense than other people.

People try a lot - but in this case you need to allow them to do so. Even in cases, where you are forced (job etc.) to make lip-service to their point of view, no one can force to to accept their views.

So why do bother?



Have the better arguments! Familiarize yourself with the subject, think carefully, think about other option, put your opinion to your "bar of reason" and if they stand - so how anyone can convert you?

If their arguments are better - than you know that you need to prepare your view point more carefully.
