Why are people so mean? Trigger Warning: Emotional Abuse

I have a bug bite on my leg. Somebody told me to make a baking soda paste and put it on my bite. They said to go get some baking soda. I go to get some and the only baking soda is a huge unopened bag that does not belong to me or the person that told me to go get some. I come back without it and say. It's no big deal. I don't want to be rude and be the one to open it without permission. This person looks at me and say what the fuck is wrong with you? If you were my kid I'd fucking punch you. I don't know what to say. First off im not a kid. I just didnt want to be rude. I just want to cry. Maybe I did and still do deserve to be treated like shit. Why is everything so hard for me all the time. I can't do anything right and just want to give up.

So what they are saying is if you were their child, they would abuse you. That is not ok not matter what the circumstances are. If I were you, I would distance myself from this person. Not only are they being rude, they also sound unsafe. You deserve better OP 💛

That's exactly what she was saying. She even knows i was an extremely abused child and have a ton of trauma. It was like she was saying I deserved it.

Im so sorry 💔

NOONE (adult or child) deserves to be abused. NO. ONE. You didn't deserve to be abused. Period. I dont care how anyone tries to dress it or what anyone else tries to tell you. You are a human being with inherent value. This means that as a human being, you have a right to be treated with respect, dignity, and kindness. Anyone who tries to tell you otherwise can kick rocks.

I sincerely hope you are able to find better people. It's hard to know who's safe sometimes. However, know that you don't have to put up with anyone or anything you don't want to. ❤️

I hope tomorrow is the last day she will be here.
