I really enjoy your thought provoking posts. As a veritable bull in a china shop when it comes to people’s feelings, it’s helpful to learn the opposite viewpoint.
Like a dozen years ago i was slootin it up with a guy at a work thing and we ended up in my hotel room. He went up my shirt and after removing my bra he drunkenly mumbled “that’s disappointing”. I will never forget the searing gut-wrenching shame I felt right then. That’s the last time I remember feeling truly hurt in a way I couldn’t control.
But then he couldn’t umm stand at attention and we ended up laying in bed and talking all night. We were having coffee the next morning and i told him what he had said. He was horrified and so apologetic. We ended up laughing about it and are still friends to this day.
His intentions were harmless; he was just being honest, although brutally so. It didn’t feel good at all, despite the fact that I’m under no illusion I’m everyone’s cup of tea. If i had stormed off and written him off as a jerk, I think it would’ve hurt me for a long time. But knowing his desire to not have hurt me made the difference.
That’s when i started assuming good intentions and i can honestly say I almost never feel hurt.
Anyway, that’s just my experience with it 😌
What he said did hurt you and you had the right to feel that way though. You were able to forgive, forget and look at things differently in the future and those are all great things.
I think why I have issues with this whole concept is that I was previously in a relationship with someone who had 0 empathy. He would say cruel things and tell me that I was stupid for experiencing emotions because he wasn't "trying" to be mean. In general I get offended by very little, but when someone you love is constantly critical and then makes you feel ashamed for feeling anything, literally any emotion, then it turns into something different.
I am being a fence sitter like @Vikka_V mentioned..... Generally I would say that a lot of people are overly sensitive, but then having been in a situation where I was ridiculed for feeling I have very mixed emotions.4 -

When the woo’ers are behind the screen stalkers, who press woo at anything you post, that’s when moderators should begin seeing who’s “stalking” and or make updates to the system, on how to link to particular users online.
The woo doesn’t bother me. The stalking is more obnoxious than the strong dislike.3 -

I'm trying to work out of my relationship if 7 years is actually worth saving.
I've been trying to keep it together for 2 years but I'm slowly realising that I can't do it by myself and my husband isn't really making any effort 😢5 -
