You don’t have to pretend that you like them. Just keep acting kind in response and maybe they’ll realize what a jerk they’re being. Even if they don’t, it’s the right thing to do.
i just started ignoring them
respect is earnt, not demanded and facts > feelings
That’s not a very good way to live though in general, if you’re constantly forcing everyone to earn your respect.
Loving people unconditionally is the right way to live.
No, someone has already earnt my respect if they aren’t annoying/rude etc. a new guy I’ve just met who has done nothing has earnt my respect
That’s not technically “earning” respect, it’s more like respecting everyone by default but they can lose your respect. But that’s good though.
Yeah, that’s what I mean
