well a lot of my classmates and friends are just saying "its just (my irl name) being (my irl name)" whenever i give critiscm and the other person is like "but i ____"
which kind of is insulting me, because it's like calling me a pushover or something
:')
i feel like Tubbo_ right now idk why.
i probably listen to too many dsmp songs.
and i just want to help them but i cant because they won't accept it and they aren't accepting me as a person
all im described as in our book is "weird"
which is offensive-
bc im a person
i am a person
im not just a person who's personality can be just described by one word...
right..?
*very confused*
im not just a person who doesnt matter right?
...or am i?
*sobbing*
and then there's the fact that everyone who wants to compliment just calls me pretty or smart or creative which is just about everyone else in the world!
*crying*
weellll....
sorry for the ramble <3

*hug* you are special and amazing and you M A T T E R!!!!! If your friends/classmates can't deal with constructive criticism that's their problem, not yours. Keep doing what you're doing because you. Are. Awesome. And don't you ever forget it. Have a snuggly kitten >{^u^}<

A dreamer, this sounds so hard! I hate it when people say things like "that's just so and so being so and so." It's so rude and downplays the person, making them feel like they're being punished for being themselves.
You are amazing and of COURSE you cannot be described in one word! Everyone has millions and millions of words that could describe them--nobody is that simple. We are human beings and we are very complex!
If your friends are making you feel badly, you should TELL them. Because there's no harm in explaining how you feel. Those feelings are always valid and should never ever be invalidated!
Don't forget that you are BEAUTIFUL and UNIQUE and you MATTER in this world, because the world would not be complete without you. Think of everyone on earth as a puzzle piece. Every single piece--even though there are billions--matter. You matter!
One of my favorite things to do when I'm feeling down is to take an index card and write all the things I love about myself on it. No, you're not being selfish. You're showing self love! Something you love about yourself could be anything from your eyebrows to your cheesy knock-knock jokes!
Wishing you the best!

Hello there! I'm super sorry that you have to go through this right now, I'm sending lots of hugs your way now! *sends hugs* I don't think that your friends mean to upset you- even so, ignoring your advice and brushing it off isn't okay and it isn't nice. I think that there's no way that anyone can be described in one word, and I know that there is so much more to you than 'weird'. And don't get me wrong- weird is a great thing to be called! I'm weird, life is weird, the chatterbox is weird; it means we're unique! But I understand how being called one thing over and over again is annoying. Just know that you matter and that we ALL care about you <333

I'm so sorry you have to deal with this! I think you should tell people that they're upsetting you and ask them to stop. If they don't stop, then maybe you should just sort of do your own thing and stop hanging out with them. Friends aren't friends if they're making you feel uncomfortable and sad and like you can't be yourself.
