A person needs relationships. We constantly meet new people, communicate with them and establish various relationships. But one mistake is repeated by many over and over again: we think that everyone we meet is like us. In fact, each person is distinguished by their own worldview, values, and intentions.
Not everyone thinks and feels like you
Some people find sincerity natural, while others act out of self-interest. For some, loyalty is a core value, while others take relationships lightly. That is why it is a mistake to think that everyone is like you.
Many grievances arise precisely from this wrong view. You are sincere with people, and they can take advantage of this. Or you value keeping your word, but it is not so important to others.
Why is this mistake dangerous?
1. Being deceived by your sincerity - not everyone is as honest or loyal as you are.
2. Showing weakness - some people may abuse your trust in order to take advantage of you.
3. Excessive resentment and hurt - the gap between what you expect from people and what they really are makes you upset.
4. Incorrect friendships and relationships - giving love and trust to the wrong people can have a negative impact on your life.
What to do?
✅ Try to understand each person better over time – judge a person by their actions, not their words.
✅ Do not establish relationships with excessive trust – being open to everyone equally does not always give good results.
✅ Accept people as they are – do not expect them to be like you, because each person is different.
✅ Set reasonable boundaries – you do not have to establish a close relationship with everyone to the same degree. Be able to distinguish who to trust and who to be wary of.
✅ Test people in small things – test trust not in difficult life situations, but in small and insignificant situations.
Conclusion
Thinking that everyone is like you leads to resentment, mental fatigue, and unhealthy relationships. If you want to be happy, establish rational relationships with people, share trust with caution, and approach life with a realistic outlook. Because true happiness lies in not being offended by the wrong people and enjoying your true friends. 😊 Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
