I said earlier maybe I need to pay more attention..??
I think my issue is that someone might say something nice, but after it runs thru the filters in my head & the dark twists & turns there, I only hear negative or it makes me suspicious.
Think it's the cynic in me. And lack of trust in humankind.

I was in a situation recently, wherein it appeared my enemies were loudly and publicly telling everyone within earshot what a terrible person I was. To make their point, they observed that I have gray hair, and that it is their opinion that my gray hair is a result of the stress caused by my own bad decisions (apparently they've never heard of genetics). And they pointed out that I had glasses on that look old. And they pointed out that I don't have much money.
If that is the best that my enemies can come up with (when my enemies are trying to make me look bad in public)? As far as I'm concerned, that's quite a compliment.
