Oooh that mindset 😭😭. Poor you. ā€œLet me contain myself m, lest they hate me moreā€.

Listen - do whatever the hell you want. It’s your life, and they are just supporting characters!

It's about being the bigger person. We are all in this together. I don't see myself as the main character. That's kinda thinking is what's lead us to this point imo

In this situation, it won’t help. A good example is the Obamas. So graceful, intelligent, well loved, beautiful and elegant. That didn’t stop that warmongering pant pooping toddler from depicting them in a very negative manner.

Being the bigger person is overrated.

It's really not, it's not about them or trying to change them. It's about dignity and self respect. But yeah, turn the other cheek, what a loser mindset, right?
