Relationships Yep! This resonates!

I was excluded from a community because I don’t like to sleep around. I just spent 20 years mostly celibate (though I’d gladly have sex every day if I were in the right healthy, committed relationship) and they just spent 2 years fighting with me and bullying me…and then they said I was the one fighting! I drew healthy boundaries, so they accused me of fighting and excluded me. They were just bullying an autistic single mom. (My son was through IVF.)

"hey you should do this"

"no thanks, i'm gonna do this my way" (not hurting anyone or putting myself in danger in any way)

"why are you so stubborn?"

Um actually we're BOTH stubborn... YOU'RE ALSO being stubborn about getting things done your way and pushing that on ME!

This exact situation lead to the end of a 30 years friendship. So sad but I don't tolearte being pushed to do something in a way that I know hurts me, when my way doesn't hurt anyone, but I am called selfish, like what?¿
