Sometimes I get stuck thinking that everyone thinks and acts just like me. I'm guessing this is a pretty normal human behavior, but I've been noticing that I think this way a lot. I just start assuming that everyone feels the same way I do and then I get hurt. When someone does something that I never do because it would annoy me so much, I get hurt. When someone is inconsiderate of my feelings, I really feel let down because I work so hard to respect everyone for what they need.
But then I have to stop and think about it for a while. They aren't trying to hurt me. They just view the world differently. I'm definitely overly considerate. I don't have a problem with this. Most of the time. I have had people tell me that I'm too nice and I'm aware that I'm a bit of a pushover. But I want people to be as considerate of me as I am of them. But this will never happen. So I either have to just let it go and cut people even more slack, or just be miserable most of the time. Not exactly the best of options. But I guess I'll just let it go. I'll just have to work to not take things so personally.
