Overreacting
So I got called a man-child the other day. And it hurt. Like a lot. I tried to defend myself by explaining all the reasons that I wasn't a man-child. But as you can imagine, that only made things worse.
Even though this thing happened a week ago, I keep replaying it in my mind. I unconsciously get angry and mad that she said that about me, and about how she's completely wrong.
But that's the thing, she wasn't totally wrong! The only reason I'm having this reaction is because part of me thinks it's true!
I believe that how we react to things is a great way to know ourselves better. Especially the sides of ourselves that we don't like.
