Also wrong, though. But I'm glad you're in some sort of path to self improvement :D.
- josephg 3y agoYeah, but anything that can be said with words will always be a bit wrong. “The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao.” and all that. How would you fix it?
- moralestapia 3y agoIMO the moment you start questioning why you like/don't like somebody you're already on a precarious path. The reason why you like someone is just because you like them; or the opposite. No need to complicate things. Learn to trust your gut and let your own inner self tell you if you feel like another person should be in your life or not. Things fall naturally into place this way.
- josephg 3y agoYeah, I suppose the thing I was trying to say was the inverse: We are not liked for our perfection. We are liked for our flaws. Stressing out about how we’re perceived is another precarious path. But still - I think there’s something deeply healthy about giving up trying to make friends by being impressive. You’re already deeply lovable through the ways you’re an idiot. If you accept that, so does the world.
