Don't let me be misunderstood?

[Ardraven]

I must be really complex and difficult to understand as a person. Every so often someone who has known me for a while and thinks they know me well seems to decide to have a problem with me because of an assumption or the word or even the opinion of a third person. Without talking to me about it at all never mind asking me for my side of it and listening. I'm not nearly as upset about the latest instance of this which just happened. It doesn't hurt much any more cause I've grown enough to know that if people think things about me that I know aren't true then that's their mistake and if they fall out with me over it without even trying to sort it out that's their loss..

I just can't understand why this seems to happen to me over and over again when it most people only have this problem rarely at the most. I might worry whether I was wrong about myself more if the very few people who I am certain know me very well didn't refuse to hear a bad word about me. Does this happen to everybody and I just don't realise it? Or is the explanation that where I think that what you see is what you get with me, from an outside perspective I'm difficult to get and easily misunderstood. I have no clue.

Because you’re smart and you talk longer than a 30-second commercial. It’s confusing to the average TV Kartrashian mindset. Keep looking for better people. They’re out there. Use this to weed out the unnecessaries.

Best of luck to you

Oh thank you so much for this! I should probably admit to not being quite as long winded in person as I am in writing but yeah if I find something worth using valuable breath on I probably do still devote more than 30 seconds to it. The thanks is mostly cause this made me laugh though and anything that can do that is gold to me at the moment.

The people that make assumptions based on something and dont ask; I have choose not to take the time or energy to rectify their perceived drama. Recently, one person thought they know me well but we haven't talked in over seven months (my choice) so since they're not in my life now they don't know anything about me. Their assumption came in an accusatory text which I chose to ignore. I view that as their loss because it probably could have been easily dealt with in a conversation. I think better people are out there for us but they may just be down a different path at the moment.
