Usually I find common ground with people because of my diverse life experience and background. I used to hate how ādifferentā I felt from others, but now I see it as my superhero strength.

When I was younger I used to see agreeableness as politeness, but now I understand itās not that simple. I thought I would make friends quicker if they thought we had shared experiences, but if itās not authentic the friendship isnāt either. Likewise, maybe if I do not relate to something that means I should listen even harder. Itās fun to have different experiences sometimes.

Iām racking my brain trying to figure out an answer. In my delusions I think that I am almost frightfully consistent in my beliefs and character and most things I do and think follow a kind of internal logic.
The only thing Iāve been able to come up with is that as much as I may joke about it and despite the terrible experiences Iāve had (like many/most women do) I really donāt hate men like most of my friends do LOL. I really donāt want to sound like a pick-me Iām being serious unfortunately. I think Iāve been fortunate to have some really amazing men in my life and I like to evaluate people on a holistic basis. So even that makes sense actually now that I think about it.
If I come up with something better Iāll let you know.

I am able to see everything as multifaceted. I know there are more than two sides to the same coin, and I believe things shouldnāt be approached as they appear.
being able to recognize this has made me a more understanding person. Iām still a hater to my core, and I still make snap judgements about people cutting me off in traffic or being rude to me in the grocery store and the like, but as someone who works in customer service, it has helped me not take everything so personally. Someone snapping at me, or asking a lot of questions that may seem obvious isnāt necessarily a pock on their character. Someone may be having a bad day, or is really tired, or high, or just hasnāt been here and they are overwhelmed because everything is new and different. I am also able to avoid spiraling about my personal relationships because it really is not about me all the time. And even if/when it is about me, it most likely not malicious. A lot of people have anxieties they donāt recognize actively, but they still act on them. And that is okay. We are all people, we all fuck up, and we all keep living.

I used to go all the time with my family. Even though my mom and I were the only African Americans in probably a large radius, it still felt like home and is still one of the most beautiful places Iāve ever visited.
