"I don't care if you're late" versus "I just silently judge you".
Which one is it?
- Mick-Jogger 6mo agoI don't show you that I care would probably be more accurate.
- eigenspace 6mo agoAlways a helpful and productive approach to solving interpersonal problems.
- shermantanktop 6mo agoMe caring doesn’t need to be a problem for others. Should we all shout about our minor preferences and gripes all the time? There are people like that, and they are exhausting. It’s essentially a selfish use of a communal good, which is the shared environment. There’s a limit to silent annoyance, of course. But my officemate noisily ate a smelly egg breakfast every day and I just bided my time until I could move.
- saltcured 6mo agoPerhaps he's a German expat who has absorbed the Parisian attitude Watch me not care
- stzsch 6mo agoNot OP but my general approach is similar: "I see it as wrong but do not feel entitled to impose my standards on others".
