People say I’m judgemental, lacking empathy, not humble and am too harsh/direct. It really hurts, how can I be a better person? Someone just told me that I am too direct and it’s a complete turn off. I’ve heard this a lot in my life from others but I never took their advice because I would look at them and think well they aren’t perfect either. But since she's said it, it's finally resonated within me and I'm so completely ashamed. I've just had a big flashback of all the times where I've been a c*** but didn't realised and blamed out or felt sorry for myse I was shy when I was younger and I think in the process of trying to be more extraverted I’ve completely over-compensated and become someone people don’t want to be around. A lot of the time I get way too nervous and talk too loud/long and I don’t even know nor connect with what I’m saying. A part of me when I’m speaking is thinking “why are you acting like this?” or I would say something really stupid that I don’t even believe in and someone will shut me down and I would totally agree with them but I just couldn’t stop myself at the time and then I feel silly and like a phoney and like a child. I will really like to be a better person. It’s a shame because I know deep down I am a really solid person. And the people that really know me (very few) know I’d do anything for them and I have a lot to offer. I’ve just built this weird lame façade to get on in the world even though it wasn’t/hasn’t been working for me. I want to be a better person, who enriches people’s lives and asks nothing in return. If anyone knows what I’m talking about would greatly appreciate your feedback.. |

Realizing your problem and admitting you have it is halfway to the solution already. You're on the right path. Keep working on your mind. It helps to put yourself in people's shoes too. That way when you're being unfair to them, you will know immediately. 3 Likes |

It was as if am reading a composition about myself, buo that was then. 1. Dear you are a strong personality, there's no need trying to run people down to prove a point. 2. Always see the good side in everything and everyone. 3. Seek people' opinions but don't let it rule your life. 4. Lastly there' always room for change.  |
