ARE MY FEELINGS VALID?

Sometimes I wonder — people often say that sharing your feelings helps with better understanding. But is that really true?🔊

In my case, whenever I try to open up, the other person often misunderstands me. They start thinking I'm blaming them, and then they feel the need to defend themselves.

But that’s not my intention at all. I’m simply trying to express how I felt in a particular situation — not point fingers or accuse anyone.

👉Yesterday’s Story:💬

I told one of my friends that sometimes I feel like they don’t pay enough attention when I talk. It makes me feel as if my words don’t matter to them — like they don’t care.

There have been moments when I truly felt that way. Maybe there were situations where they unintentionally made me feel ignored or unimportant.

They say they care💖. But honestly, I don’t always see it in their actions💔.

Am I asking for proof?
No — I just want to be understood.

So in the end, who wins — me or him?
I walked away feeling misunderstood😕.
He walked away feeling the burden of my emotions😞.
