I feel like I've been so misunderstood for most of my life

I hate how people seem to come up with their own narratives about each other without once thinking to themselves, "Hmm, I wonder what their story is?" I believe everything happens for a reason but for someone to claim to know what that reason is simply because they don't like me instead of putting themselves in my shoes and getting to know the REAL me, it makes me want to spit on them and wish eternal torment on them. I've been through torturous social experiences in high school because of crap like this and now I might be going through it at work if intuition is correct. I hope it isn't and I'm just being paranoid. As soon as humanity gets involved, it always has to be complicated doesn't it? That can be a good thing but I really hope things improve at work over time because I'm sick of being judged prematurely. If you don't know me and what I've been through, why assume I am a bad person?! Why act like you are on a pedestal compared to me? People are extremely insecure to the point where they say the most ignorant, most hateful crap. It wouldn't kill people to be humble from time to time. Certainly not with me. I'm not going to rub it in someone's face when they admit they were wrong. I'll be thankful and forgiving. There's more I could go into on this and where it all comes from but I don't feel like writing a biography at the moment lol. Does anyone relate? How do you manage if so?
