😖 Not Liking Someone
It's okay not to like someone. No need to beat yourself up about it.
It is under very rare circumstances that I don’t like someone, so when it happens I often think that there is a problem with me rather than the other person.
At least that’s what I thought in my 20s.
I would even go out of my way to be around that person more in hopes that I would understand where I was at fault. Maybe there was something I was missing?
Perhaps you feel that way too. You meet someone and something just doesn't sit right with you, and you have a hard time pinpointing what it is exactly.
Now that I’m a little grayer, I’ve actually learned to trust my intuition. Some people I just don’t mesh with. It doesn’t mean I’m rude to them. I always show respect. I just choose to limit my interaction with them and spend my time with others.
They are not bad people. I just know very much who I am and where my personality, values, and life outlook may clash with someone else.
I like most people, but not everyone. And not everyone will like me. And that’s okay.
