I am that kind of person who is direct by nature. I've been trying to learn how to manage it for years now and I must say that I am progressing. I do understand that words can hurt and I don't want to hurt people. But when I was younger I would say things the way they were and not everyone could take it. I realized that I can't expect everyone to cope with the truth (or whatever I considered being the truth) and I started to adjust myself. It was the best thing I could do..
I am sorry to hear that you had such experience in relationship. I do truly hope that those ladies were not aiming to hurt you though :)
Thank you for sharing such private experience! Have a good day!
I understand that directness! And there are times when you have to be direct, even if it is something that someone does not want to hear. That is amazing that you caught yourself in a pattern of behavior and decided to change it on your own - most people don't change in that regard, so that is impressive. As for whether or not they were aiming to hurt me... "Lavanda" and "Hannah" were just ignorant as to people's feelings. "Lynn," on the other hand, was just downright cold-hearted and nasty. And she seemed so sweet when we first met... Thanks for reading!
