I Am Introspective

Time and time again, you notice the same pattern in some people. So why does it still bother you? If they can't see it, if they don't want to see it, what is there to do? Nothing.
Let them be as they are. Why even try to change them if they don't even want to see or change.
Just don't let their patterns disturb you.

The disturbance that other's behavior causes within is more intolerable than the behavior itself. I just don't understand how it is possible to not be disturbed at all. I have stopped worrying about it and i am now believing that it's only human to feel hurt. To me, the best we can do is tend to out wounds and not be worried that we are being wounded and we shouldn't have been.

I agree. Even I've come to terms with being a human first, all the emotions, feelings and even the hurt and even the past. It really is ok and in fact, all these flaws and imperfections is what makes this life experience beautiful in a way. It's just difficult when people around us expect a lot wanting us to be superhuman. I'm very much content being a human, with all the good n bad, I've come to terms with it..now just learning to be able to deal with people.

You're wise enough. And yes, expectations are hard to deal with. Sometimes, there are no common roads we all can travel on. Because our beliefs conflict and we have to take separate ways.
I find dealing with some people very difficult. It's like you must travel their way or the highway. Lol. And sometimes, it's manipulative too. You know but can't do anything about it. Tough choice.
Anyway, i wish you strength and inner peace. :)

I find that what bothers us about others is sometimes a reflection of our personal issues. People are mirrors of ourselves, to us. I agree with what you are saying, don't let it bother you. Sometimes that means walking apart from someone, being irritated or offended is only human, as you and Kasiyat were saying below. Namaste ladies :)

Yes, every situation demands a different decision, and also not reacting to it every time...sometimes i give in and react, sometimes i pause and try to accept it the same moment. Every time it's different. A near enemy relationship...i don't know about that, but i'd rather not name any relationship as enemy, even if it's an abusive one coz then my mind becomes prejudiced. So i try seeing them as a human being first, instead of any kind relationship, that helps me accept them and the patterns. But i easily tend to forget it in the moment, sometimes i do remember, though mostly my own past patterns spring up and i react. it's when in introspection that i'm able to accept and let it go. :)

Near enemy relationship between complacency and acceptance, not a relationship between peoples. :P
