This is an interesting thread, with interesting replies. It is hard not to be disappointed by people’s actions or inactions sometimes. And it can feel like they are devaluing our worth. And I think feelings of hurt and anger are “normal” responses to that. Our worth is intrinsic though, despite what some people might do. I hope you’re feeling a bit better now SarahSweden. Thank you for sharing your truth. Please do update us if you feel like it

ETA I also find as someone else said, being humble sometimes helps me not feel so disappointed in some people. They are human too and make mistakes, sometimes significant mistakes. If I feel that they are intentionally being hurtful... well, then they have a bigger problem. . Hugs to you

Also, as someone else mentioned, finding the “grey” in people is helpful. There are very few people who are all “good” or all “bad”
There are very few people who are all “black” or all “white” (or all “negative” or all
“positive”) despite what our emotions may sometimes tell us. I hope some of this is helpful to you
