Wait a min.

So. Wait. I always tell people that people are suffering themselves and that is why they hurt others.

But, if this is true. Then why have all you people here, suffering, been so kind?

I think this means, we all have a choice. And I’m gonna stop making excuses either to be shitty or allow people to be shitty to me.

You guys are helping me deal.

Thx so much.

Some people have been hurt so deeply that's all they know how to do is hurt others, but some of them are just shitty excuses for humans.

I think it's worth mentioning that sometimes people hurt each other simply because they are different people with different goals, backgrounds, experiences, expectations, traumas, ideals, etc.

Of course there is cruelty from some for its own sake but there's also just...things that people do that we don't like, or understand, or that effect us deeply.

Sometimes we manage to fall into the category of kind and caring, other times we don't manage that and fall somewhere on the other end of the scale.

But every moment of kindness and selfless love we encounter, or maybe even unintentional moments of laughter or peace we are given by other should be cherished precisely for that reason.

Life is complicated, people are complex, and still sometimes we find those lights in the darkness.

You make a very compelling argument and thoughts for me to ponder. Yes everyone on this site has been so supportive.

Hi- Each one of us has different struggles and still encourages others even though ourselves are going through problems. I enjoy this site because I don’t feel alone and I learn from others’ life experience. You are right, people here are kind.

Thank you for sharing. God bless.

All people are different. It is common for people to be normal or extreme. For example I was very extreme... because I had this weird idea/belief that you could only be an abuser or a victim. I totally was turned off by abuser and chose victim. this was unnecessary. I attracted abuse everywhere i went or was i attracted to it? anyway i realized the problem and my life is getting better. my point is everyone gets hurt. and not everyone that is abused becomes an abuser. that is an ignorant idea in my opinion. be yourself.

Good for you for not allowing yourself not to make anyone feel shitty again. And that should go with all of us.
