How often do you feel misunderstood?

I'm not misunderstood only because I don't make anything to interpret available to the people around me asides basic actions. I have a few friends I can talk to on an open level that'd understand me but as far as family goes(and I really dont like saying this) I have to dumb it down for them because they are so set in their perspective. There's no point in trying to explain how you feel to someone that isn't familiar with putting themselves in someone else's shoes. This is quite fine for me though, as I don't like outside help anyhow and aren't in dire need of support whenever emotional problems come up. I've spent quite a bit of time being my own therapist and working out the roots to my issues. I'm glad and proud I've gotten rid of a 7 year stalking habit and quelled deulusional narcissism with little to no support.

"Do you ever feel like everything you do or say is misconstrued or taken in the opposite way of intended? Do you ever get the feeling people are misinterpreting or acting dense on purpose to shut you down, gaslight you, or to imply rejection without outwardly saying so? Like basically saying they don't want to know you because they think you suck so they're just going to deliberately "miss-know" you?"

All the time (On SC and PF at least.)

Idk if you'd be surprised to know how many interests and opinions you and I share ( I haven't been very open about them since we were on skype together.) It always makes me lol when you and I make very similar statements, but they're received so differently by the assholes here. :D

 

"Sugar's mentioning of people not knowing when she's being sarcastic."

And fuck yes. I give it back in spades.

Wut? If they can't see your intellect, they're morons.

Aggressive... yeah lol.

I am open to other opinions, but I demand that my opponent jump through hoops to prove their position. I'm kind of a bully about that, aren't I?  :&

I'm working on it... sort of...

Yeah, that's a conundrum, alright. I'm not interested in patching anything up with most of the people here.

What's done is done.

I'd like to be more mindful of my tone with some of the newer people here, and with my rl acquaintances, tho.

I'm not close to exaggerating when I say "this happens to me every day".  Or when I type it and post it here, even.

The reason for this is I'm just not in the same time continuum as everyone else. >:)

I think every person aside from those with anencephaly have experienced that.

"Do you ever get the feeling people are misinterpreting or acting dense on purpose to shut you down, gaslight you, or to imply rejection without outwardly saying so?"

That's a common passive-aggressive tactic. Usually (in my own experience) there is a tinge of sarcasm, and/or: microexpressions, general body language, context, simply understanding how a person operates. All of which are giveaways.

"Like basically saying they don't want to know you because they think you suck so they're just going to deliberately "miss-know" you?"

As in subtle slander?

"Or do you think it has more to do with the other person and the tendency for people to see what they want to because of their own egos?"

Some are socially inept and don't see people for "who they are."

Some are egocentric, and are convinced about "who others are."

Others see people for "who they are," but choose to distort that image in the fashion you've described.
