I can relate, though when it comes to certain life choices I’ve made, I’m Teflon coated when it comes to other people’s criticisms/requests for me to justify myself - namely staying single and not wanting children. A lot of other things, though? Yeah, I also feel I have to justify myself and feel bad about things I like if others don’t, including hobbies and musical taste. I’ve got a bit better over time, though.
We’re all different and I frequently remind myself there’s no reason I have to mirror anyone else to the point I lose myself.
It’s better to be disliked for who you are than liked because you’re being what other people want.
