Young me would try to argue with them because I thought I could change their mind / opinions.
Even trying to kill them with kindness doesn’t get them to change the way they feel or act.
So I just blissfully ignore them. I can’t control what people say about me, or what people think about me, what I can control is whether or not I let their feelings affect my emotional state. I just try to be best most honest version of myself, sometimes I fall short of that, but generally I treat people how I want to be treated. And if they reply with hatred, or disrespect then I cut them out of my life as much as I can 😊
