I can’t win at life

I try to get along with people at work like my co workers and my boss. And I’m happy that I get along with most of my co workers. I’m happy because all my life I’ve been a square peg in a round hole and I didn’t talk to anybody but now I feel like I fit in. Not all the soldiers/ office workers like me some are rude and I suspect they’re laughing at me but I get along with enough of them.

I thought things were going pretty good. My co workers are hard on me but we have decent conversations but just now one of my co workers said something insulting about me getting along with people. I can’t win! If I’m curt and unfriendly like I grew up being then I don’t get along with anyone. If I’m friendly like I’ve been for years I get put down. I’m just sick of people. I feel like being rude and unfriendly.

You can win at life. But you can’t please all the people all the time.

Someone told me that with work, you just have to let things play out how they’re gonna play out. Just do your best and if it seems like things are going south, prepare. You can’t control what people are gonna say about you, just how you react. A few weeks ago I had also let it bother me but continue to choose to put your happiness first. Just remember that: You’ve been capable of creating peace in your life before it’s not like you can’t do it again.

You’re still here. There’s lots of little kids who had cancer who aren’t with us now who would have been grateful for the time you’ve had that they were denied.

Attitude of gratitude, bro.

Just because one jerk is rude and may not like you, doesn’t mean no one else does.

It is much worse being a curt and unfriendly vs now getting along with people?

Nobody will win in life until we are at our deathbed and grave then people might miss you being there for the next one week only lol

You should be good and friendly to people because it’s the right thing to do, not because you want them to be good and friendly back.
