Do you explain and defend your self always?

I don't explain myself when there's no need to do so. Actually, in your case, where your explanation isn't given justice, it is better to just stop explaining and just let them think what they want to think. What's the use of explaining if it will go into one ear and exit into the other one.

Same as you, i stop explaining myself to people a long time ago... it took too much energy, i rather channel my energy to do something that can make money rather than keep defending or explaining myself to people who don't even listen to what i say.

There was a time when I would take the trouble of explaining myself. But have stopped that long back. I think there is no reason why we should always be explaining ourselves to people who do not want to listen or understand.

Your friend is absolutely right dear, I am a very conservative boy i don't show up much when it comes to defending i just accept the situation whatever it is and be on the track with everyone, but i soon realized that by this behavior, lot of people started to take me for granted because of this. Around my friend circle i always tried to be bold but when certain issues come up like self defending or getting yourself right on a particular matter, i always use to bend down that was my biggest mistake and its still going on inspite of realizing it. Iam trying hard to make things straight forward, being emotional i always bend to my collouges. So my friend i would like to suggest you don't stop giving up nor do just let go anything, Yeah there might be a situation where you have to let go and listen, but sometimes time shows in such a way where you have to be bold enough and raise your voice making yourself self defendant.

Sometimes i needn't explain because they understand.Sometimes even if i made efforts to explain,they couldn't understand.

hi, yes of course,specially when i am in the right path way,i will surely defend my self,but there were times that i used false reasons just to hide my fault and my wrong.

I would defend my self of course. If I am right, I will do every effort to defend my self, but what if they don't listen. I would rather go nor defending my self just in case to prevent my self from doing bad thing or thing which was more worse. I wouldn't bothered to be sidetracked by my family, but at least they have a better understanding to why I did that. Something happen for a reason. You ever heard t

I know the feeling. Its not easy thou to let others understand our point of view. But me i am not the person who give reasons why coz it turns out the negative is on me. So id rather keep my mouth shot as long as i know in myself and others who sees it that i never step to anyone shoes and i knw exactly what im doing. but if the situation really needs to air my/your side i think we should coz it is always our right to defend once in while ourself. Have a good weekend
