When I was 18 a girl said "intention is irrelevant, perception is reality" and I thought that was so profound at the time and now I think it's absolute bullshit like sorry but you being an idiot who manufactures problems isn't my fault

It makes sense tho cs it doesn’t matter what ur intention is the person is gonna take it the way they take it even if you meant something in a good way they may take it in a bad way based on their perception and it’s hard to change how people feel

Impact is an important factor but so is the intention. The more valuable thing is what happens when you guys communicate that something happened, it truly doesn’t matter in most situations if you made a mistake as long as you handle everything appropriately and maturely. Fuck the mistake, how’s the communication around it, is what I’m tryna say.

And I'm saying you extrapolating the meaning of something neutral to make it negative is your own problem and I'm not gonna feel bad because you're mad at me for something that did not happen anywhere except your imagination

Nobodies saying you have to feel bad if they mad about something but u didn’t mean it in a bad way js move on your not responsible for how other ppl feel only your own as long as you know in heart u didn’t mean what u did or said in a bad way it don’t matter u can’t control how ppl feel or how ppl react to what u do or say
