I think that there is a time in life when you can say, "wow, people think of me in ______ way"
like, you can say that for the most part, people think you are a good person, or that people think you are a jerk, or that most people think you are selfish, etc.
i'll say that for me, i've thought, "i think that people think i'm a good person" i don't try to be, i don't overexert myself giving flowery gifts to people and expecting to be put on a pedestal because of it. But, i am nice and will give when i can to help someone out, put their mind at ease, or give of my time to make their time more enjoyable.
what do you do though when you realize the consensus is that of "people think i am a bad person" whether it be because of major things or minor.
then what if you change? are you changing yourself to be how others want you to be, and in turn, isn't this exactly the opposite of being an individual? isn't this what our parents always told us NOT to do?
what if you are just not a nice person?
