I Have a Question

You be you. If they don’t mesh with you then it wasn’t the right connection for you.

I'd say compromise, If they are willing to do what I want then I'd probably be more than willing to do what they want..depends on how important the relationship is and the dynamic..if it's a workplace environment no choice it's better to suck it up especially if their the boss, shows good workmanship, but not always tho don't wanna be a complete pushover..but that's just what I think for now

Find people that are better suited. Pop culture is 100% wannabes, sheeple following an example they don't even know. They do this because they are afraid to stand out and afraid to fail, so instead, they blend in with mediocrity.

I handle it about as well as I handle everything else.....struggle and fumble my way through while trying not to make it obvious that I don't know what I'm doing.

Compromise...it's not for everyone!
