It's not a matter of outgoing and vitality, it's just a matter of communicating my intent clearly

    Haha thanks, I appreciate the compliment. I just eventually realized there are things more important than my emotions, like spreading the truth, and making the truth accessible to others. If I am speaking with kindness and good intent and wisdom as best I can, then I refuse to feel ashamed just because of how some specific person reacts to it in one moment. Maybe they simply had a bad day, who knows? I shouldn't let other people's emotional negativity drag me down when there are so many other better ways to think and feel. And furthermore, those ways of thinking and feeling are often more accurate to the truth than the opinions of people who negatively emotionally lash out. So it's just a healthy way to live, imo

      I think the different between us is most people will finally understand you if you work hard enough... But I am not...

      I felt this way for a long time. But someday you will find something you are good at that ALSO people appreciate you for. But it might take a while. It took me many, many years. You have to make your own unique path through life, there is no other way.

        I understand your joke, I just don't know if you're joking or not. A little "lol" or "/s" at the end of the post can help a lot.

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe%27s_law Read this :)

        I'm probably not going to read that book for quite a while at least, I'm very busy with other things lately, but thanks for the recommendation.
