20. Who Are Committed To Misunderstanding You
The saying “Never waste your time trying to explain who you are to people who are committed to misunderstanding you” suggests that it’s not worth the effort to try and explain ourselves to people who are unwilling to understand us or who have made up their minds about who we are.
We all have unique personalities, backgrounds, and experiences that shape who we are as individuals. However, there will always be people who don’t understand us or who are committed to misunderstanding us. These people may have preconceived notions about who we are, or may be unwilling to see things from our perspective.
Trying to explain ourselves to these people can be a frustrating and futile effort. We can end up feeling drained and invalidated, and may even begin to doubt ourselves and our own worth.
Instead of trying to explain ourselves to those who are committed to misunderstanding us, it’s important to focus on the relationships and friendships where we feel valued, respected, and understood. We should prioritize the people who support us and who celebrate our unique qualities and perspectives.
