Am I the only person who connects respect as a concept to fear? Idk how to explain it but the definition of respect has always been tricky for me. (Like I just want decency for everyone including me but that’s all I know)

I think I get where you’re coming from. Like people only respect you if you’re in a position of power? Because I feel so disrespected and inferior sometimes. Basic respect should be automatically given!!!

Not exactly😭 idk how to explain it. I think I just find people that are often highly respected by others as horrible people so it’s like i naturally don’t like the word respect. Like to me ig “self-respect” feels like I’m being stern, harsh and abusive towards myself I think?😭 so I always hated when people say thinks about respecting myself like what does that even mean
