I’m so tired of being called manipulative when I know that’s not who I am. I’ve never tried to control anyone or force anyone into anything. I’ve been open and honest with my feelings, and I’ve made mistakes, but that doesn’t mean I’m manipulative. It’s frustrating because I have so many people who know me, who can back me up and tell you that this is not who I am. I try my best to be kind, respectful, and genuine with everyone I care about. To be constantly told that I’m doing something wrong when I’m not is really hard to deal with. I wish people would just listen to what I’m actually saying instead of jumping to conclusions. It’s exhausting trying to defend myself all the time, especially when I know I’m not in the wrong.
