I used to have a lot of friends. Then one day, they wanted to contradict one of my beliefs and attack me. So, I attacked back. Then I dug them so deep into the ground with what I said that they told other people. Then all my friends started disappearing, and it was just me. Since I won every argument, no one wanted to be my friend anymore, since they thought I was this cocky, evil person who just shattered everyone’s perspective on life. So, I stopped confronting people because I actually liked having friends. Now I just listen to everyone’s opinions and keep my mouth shut. 😐

…thing is why is it alright for someone else to have an opinion and attack you but when you react you are the jerk or the bitch for standing up for yourself. I agree you don’t have to stay and argue but standing up for yourself is okay in my opinion. However some people do have more talent with it and can get hurtful. Good grief see…I am contradicting myself…<3
