Thank you
@Ronin , though wished you didn't feel the same. :hug:
Oh no, only chose not myself because/ instead of doing otherwise, despite feeling awful.
No no one's fault but my own. People speaking from what they know- opposite Universe to my own. talking of wanting to grow old, and thinking of death as something not thought of/ experienced, and how loved we all are, and how we could think we are showing ourselves as better (when we belong to a group most think are one step from monsters). But clueless or not grasping it, is unsafe too. Not the majority's experience though, so they belong there.
And hey, they have the right to dislike me. Because I've noticed it, I tried to think, it's just my stupid thoughts. Only so many zero eye-contacts, grimaces, bad handshakes and eye rolling one can overlook though. My fault I had no exit strategy. And no option to go a benign route. My fault I was there at all. Stupid me.
Any way to bring it in, even for a minute?
No, not now. Although my pointsettia started to bloom. Bizarre. So will stick with bizarre.
1. I do realize, (for me), whether it's small or Big (life) situations/ choices, when choice is taken away, such as decisions made by people without being in the other person's shoes, +/or without their limitations, and ultimately without their reality/ experiences, +.or sometimes without understanding, consent is taken away also. Without giving freedom to choose, there is no real opportunity for consent, in either direction. Having no option, feels like having no consent. Which feels like re-traumatization. Or at least un-safety, since there is no trauma, but rather only the sense of what composes it.
