I can’t be the only one who has been on both sides of this, yeah?

    Aaaaaaaa the ole “I can’t stand this person because they’re a prime exhibition of the traits I really hate in myself and supress as hard as possible”. Unfortunate when someone accidentally activates my self hatred as regular hatred, they don’t deserve it

    Happens to me 😅 I have a ok-but-pretty-noticeable stammer, but when I have to listen to someone else who have it worse I’m like « Is this what it feels like to listen to me?! »

    (Only internal monologue of course… I wouldn’t treat someone else like I’ve been treated 🫂)

    I’ve seen it before. They don’t mask some behaviors that you have learned to mask. It feels like they lack self awareness about it and it is off putting.

    But then I realize it’s probably how I sound like to normal people too.
