I Am Always Improving Myself

I had a conversation with my friend and I still feel myself like if I received a slap. A slap that opened my eyes to reality.
The thing is that I'm...how to tell it...one of these people who are in her own world of fantasy and dreams. Very sensitive. All affects me as hell. I have an idea of the world...and when the reality is not so beautiful, I got disappointed.
I give thanks for having people around as this friend who from time to time, take me back to the Earth.

I was talking to him about my problems in school with my coworkers. It's not that I argued with anyone there but I was pretty disappointed bc noone wants to dirty his hands to arrange problems in the school. Only covering these problems to avoid a bad press.
He told me. People are like this. They try to do the less as possible and they don't like you to be outlined. If you are, they will go against you. Everyone has a strategy.

Everyone has a strategy, everyone has a strategy...this remark is on my mind all the time.

I thought. What the hell! It's a school. It's supposed we are there to work together and fight for the best for kids!

Don't believe nice words, he added, there are people who goes pretending being stupid because they don't want anyone to request anything. And then, there are people who put you a happy face and then, talk about you behind your back.

I must be stupid. Because I tend to believe what people tell me. I asked him: so, how I know if I can trust someone?. He said...you will only see with time. For their acts. Only smile. Don't ask for help. Do the things on your own and smile.

Now, that I'm more open to people...I don't know if it's my own fault ...but it's pretty disappointing bc if I found hard to be comfortable with someone in the past, now I see it even worse.


I'm very interested in knowing your thoughts and opinions.

I don't consider myself better than other people, only that I'm too much sensitive. Indeed, I'm being awared now that I also have a hidden agenda. In the sense that I'm expecting people being as I would like they were. I'm struggling because they are not or don't see them as I would like.
Always having a perfect ideal idea of how I have to be and how the world has to be.
I'm understanding now that my sensitiviness is a way to play the role of the victim, poor me...the world is not how it must be....I'm not as I would like to be.
I have such a level of not acceptance.
This not acceptance of myself and the world around me is what leads me to take in many behaviours from others that I don't like and that hurt myself. I liked to think that I was doing a comprehension of others but I think what I do is to justify and take things in a exercise to get approval from others. My narcissist wound can't take others think bad about me or disappoint me, because I need them in some way, because I don't like myself...I take things I don't like and let others behaviours and beliefs disturbe my peace.
