I don't know if there's a thread about this, if there is, oops. But if there's not then I shall start one.
---------
When growing up, I had always been taught about being "out of centre attention", or "don't speak out." and while in school, I was always being told "Being the odd one was a bad thing."
Whether it be thru friends, family, or teachers there was always that underlining theme of "Just be passive aggressive, and you'll be okay."
Our World of Teenagers, and Young adults have been sucked into this vortex of Passive Aggressiveness. Especially with social medias including; Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat. Where your identity becomes anonymity and being able to say stuff behind people's back is just so common.
Now a days, those who have lived believing this lie are trained to not say anything to the person who is either not being fair, or outright rude.
My Quote, that I live by is: You are only weak to those you give power to.
Maybe it's a motto that you should take hold of. If you freely give power to someone, you are enabling them to force you to think what they think, do what they want you to do, and honestly become so powerless.
I would like to know from you. Are you Passive Aggressive? I genuinely want to know because I can say that I was, but I am learning that there's nothing wrong with having my own thoughts, and thinking for myself.
Thanks for reading!
