Believe them? I guess. That’s what we’re told to do, right? Someone behaves in a manner we find uncivil, rude, inappropriate, or has a disagreeable character (values) or personality (attitude), and we write them off, ghost them, block them from our life.
Are there exceptions to this rule? Or are we forever defined by our imperfect moment/s? Is there no consideration to a person’s mindset? How do we decipher if someone’s behavior is actually who they are versus a behavior influenced by many of society’s unjust and unfair ways?
Some people have been treated so badly in personal relationships (abused, used, lied to, cheated on) their learned cynical nature interferes with their true behavior, clouding the person they really are.
I read this saying a lot on social media, “Be kind. You don’t know what people are going through.”
Some people give second chances, even third and fourth chances. While some give none. For those who give none, life must be wonderful to be so perfect.
