You don’t have to be “liked” by everyone.

...See more I’ve discovered this is a trauma response. Fawning. Trying to ingratiate oneself to others. Immediately trying to sense from communication or lack thereof one’s innate worthiness to exist.   It’s ok to not be liked.   The truth will set you free.   Supposedly, anyway.   I have yet to see it in action because mostly I suppress the side of myself that is caustic, judgmental, sees the world in color, responds to auras, sees numbers, worships kindness.    Those sorts of things. Though that is my authentic voice.   Being pleasing is a social lubricant.   White lies. Etc.   Part of the Racist, Homophobic, Misogynist, Capitalist machinery that keeps us all in line.    And our voices suppressed.   Is this a space where one might “try out” being honest?       Or is this yet another space where free speech is suppressed, oppressed?   Please don’t respond just to “please” me or to fulfill some quota.   For example, I’m aware there is some reward in “cheers” for people who respond to “needs response” threads.   Please do not send some cute animal hugging another animal and saying it’s all going to be all right, because frankly, it’s not.   Let’s see who actually reads through this message.   Let’s see if this message is still up tomorrow.
