Our world is very stupid about feelings. People tell each other all the time – with a straight face – “you should feel different about me/that/whatever.”

FEELINGS DO NOT WORK THAT WAY.

You can stop EATING pizza, but you can’t stop LIKING it. You can TOLERATE obnoxious behavior, but you can’t just… START ENJOYING IT.

The same thing is true about what people like about each other. Saying “don’t judge my past” will not make anyone feel any differently about who you are and the choices you’ve made.

It will just make them lie to you.
