Question by : How Can I Prove To People I Have A Thicker Skin And Just Don’t Care?
This is so important to me. I feel like I could do that NOW if I was starting out, but that at this point there’s too much historical baggage. And now it seems like people expect me to get upset and their expectations are infecting my mind and getting me to self-fulfill their expectations! And I know that unless I can be this thicker-skinned, “I don’t care” person I will never be happy.
I know it sounds crazy but I feel like if people acted like they expected me to have a thick skin and not care(note: “expect” here does not mean “want” it means they think that’s how I’m going to act) then that would change my behavior, but otherwise I have to keep acting like they expect(again I’m NOT talking about how they want me to act, that’s different).

…….What?
You can’t prove to anybody that you have thick skin if you care so much about what they think of you.
IE you’ll never prove it because you care too much. Stop trying and just accept who you are. that’sthe first step toward freedom.
