Question

This is just a thought. Please indulge me for a bit.


We have opinions yes? and they Sometimes Can have Negative affects on people or Positive affects. Like someone tells you ur. . .Ugly Or something along the lines that has something to say bad about you. How will you take it? u might be angry with them for calling that or doing smth you don't like. . .

Or you can believe the Idea and start self hating yourself for it. Or others may toss the thought away cause it means nothing. . .

I wonder, Why is it that we be negative to other people? is it because we hate what they do? how they act? because it's so different from what we know?
This isn't a post about racism or gender equality or anything like that

This is about Opinions. and how they can sometimes hurt. I know this from personal experiences and how it lead me to. . . Uncertain things Some may not even Read this. so indulge me for a moment. thank you for ur time

Answer 1

I think ppl hurt others to feel better about themselves, name calling, bullying, etc; all because they aren't happy with themselves so they rather bring others down with them :[ but that's just my opinion

Answer 2

This is my point.

Answer 3

Hurt people hurt people

Answer 4

Opinions can hurt because they tap into our insecurities or challenge how we see ourselves. People are often negative out of fear, insecurity, or because something different makes them uncomfortable. It's not always about you—sometimes it's just a reflection of their own issues. The key is learning which opinions to let in and which to let go.

Answer 5

Many people believe that if they hurt others it will make them feel better or give them some sort of confidence boost that they're better than the other person. It's obviously not true and will only negatively affect the other person. Sometimes people just don't like it if someone else isn't like them, if they're different or think and act in some sort of different way, like you said. People are very quick to judge or project their insecurities onto others, not really thinking of how it could affect the other person. This is the basis of most bullying unfortunately. I've been on both sides of that so I know how it feels. I think that when most people mature they realize that if they genuinely have a negative opinion on someone its best to keep it as an inside thought. They realize that there's no point to insulting people with their opinions because it won't make them feel better about themselves, and even if it does it's only for a moment.

Answer 6

Maybe they don't mean too hurt the other person, some people take things the wrong way

Answer 7

Whoa therapy session :3 anyways..... its human nature sadly... and we dont know how to get along and i think the main reason for that is because of jealousy. ...I mean think about it, if someone says "my dad could beat up your dad" its cus they are usually jealous in some way of the other person and/or their dad, or like "I have more money than you" trying to 1 up them cus they dont want to look like the person they are bullying so they look cool infront of their friends... the person they are bullying has some really good friends and deep down the bully wants those types of friends (sorry for grammatical errors)

Answer 8

Humans need to stop being jealous. It'd solve everything. Think about it for a while, there would be no more wars, hunger (possibly), death/murder, cheating, gambling etc.
