How often do you ask yourself if putting up with other people is even worth it?

[Lynx122]

I'm curious. It doesn't mean you have to isolate yourself from everybody at the same time just that you've had enough and you ask yourself this. It can be a temporary thing or long term. I just wanna see what you think :)

Navigating the waves of social interactions, eh? We all hit that wall sometimes, don't we? 😂 Love, it's like a roller coaster. One day you're all about the highs of human connection, the next you're wondering if becoming a solitary monk in the mountains wouldn't be such a bad idea after all. Personally, I find myself pondering this question during those moments of overwhelming drama or misunderstanding. It's perfectly natural to question the energy we invest in relationships and whether the returns are worth it. But here's the twist – these moments of doubt often lead to deeper insights about our needs and boundaries. So, in a way, it's not just about putting up with others but understanding ourselves better too. The key, darling, is to find that sweet spot between connecting and personal peace. Easier said than done, I know, but oh, so worth the ride! 🎢💕

And so that is the question why are you putting up with it you don't have to change for anybody you have to be yourself be true to yourself if people are bringing you down you have to get away from them they're there just for that reason to make you feel the way they feel and that's when you walk away you are the only person that is control you that is in control of you if somebody's around you that brings you down you have to get away from them or tell them to stay away from you your happiness is your happiness not theirs they have their own they can do their own thing you just don't need that thing around you and you have to tell them voice that you don't have to be liked because you want to be yourself you have to be yourself so you like yourself

Not often at all because I already know the answer for me. It's no.

I'm autistic... I would love to isolate myself... but it doesn't make any sense because even with my need to isolate myself, I still need other people... as much as I feel bad between them :D

there are idiots between people, but you can learn to ignore them...

[Lynx122]

I have trouble even with people I like. It's difficult. I think I'm learning but it's the hardest part of life for me.

[IslaTheWitch]

for me it's the same, but I was isolated long enough to know it doesn't work :D

[hahahmm]

I'm the type who doesn't need friends.. yet I am also sociable when I want to be. If somebody is cold/azzhole to me I tend to tune them out and move on. No regrets. Most people want fake friends (which I cannot be) so it's mutually beneficial for me not to waste their time or have them waste mine.

[Telekinetic-Potato]

More and more every day, I find myself asking. What is this persons purpose in my life? Are they getting me closer to my goals or further? And why.

I don’t need to isolate myself anymore but there was a time I cut almost everyone off and that really helped me break my bad patterns.

I'm fortunate enough that if it's somebody I don't want to put up with then I don't have to and I won't. Life's too short for dealing with shitheads. Let them all mix and mingle with only themselves.

[Lynx122]

I mean even the people you like.

[mandyfire98]

I enjoy being around everybody I like.

[Lynx122]

You're lucky :)

[JustTryingToLife]

At least once a week. Mainly I ask why are people the way they are and see if I can figure it out if not then it's just why do I put up with them.

Socialization is one of the ultimate addictions of our species and if we do not satisfy that addiction we will slowly go insane. Regardless if I like it or not, I need to socialize to maintain my mental health and so does everybody else.

[idonotlikeyou]

It's not worth it, but to survive, one must do things they don't like.

[DarkLegacy]

Your username is not very friendly is it.

[idonotlikeyou]

@DarkLegacy My username wasn't meant to be friendly.

[Massageman]

Had one of those cases today/ If I ever quit volunteering, it will be because of asshats like that!

[exitseven]

I don't ask that wresting because I do not put up with a lot of people

[GeminiDiamond]

Never. I always give people the benefit of the doubt. Then I draw conclusions based on vibes.

[LiamJHayden]

The only time I put up with people I'd prefer to avoid is in business, and I make it worth it to myself financially.

[Nikki1989]

I would never ask that question. Humans are meant to socialize with each other.

[LazerBean]

Not very often, I'm generally only around people that I like these days.

[NiNiMae]

All the time but then I remember that everyone is going through something, which takes a toll on how they might act towards you and have it either irritate or upset you. Happens a lot with me but I try my best to put up with it and just smile.

[NathanDavis]

I just don't do it... I keep walking

[ProbablyClueless]

Not very often... I generally like people.

[DarkLegacy]

I find myself asking this every day

[Anonymous]

Literally every day. 🫤
