I just got some unsettling news.
Someone told me about some serious personality flaws that I wasn’t even aware of. This person knows me pretty well, and they’re probably right.
So why didn’t anyone tell me this before? Why do people just zip their lips and let you make all these mistakes in life? It’s like I haven’t got a clue what effect my behavior has on people. Not a clue what I’m doing to people and not recognizing — or not admitting? — that it’s a problem.
I HATE hurting people. I hold onto the guilt for years afterward. If what they say is true, it’s going to shatter me when it sinks in.
