People and then some

I suppose I am still somewhat young. But one thing I need to stop doing is being so honest, nice and kind hearted in general. Seems my soul is getting tired of how not honest, not upfront and shady people have got on a daily basic. I am no longer trusting people around me, except for a couple people that are very close. Might be hard to do at first but, well worth while. From what I have seen on a daily basics, I think covid messed a lot of people up. Made people not as pleasant, deceitful, back stabbing, lying bunch of terrible people. I am sick of it all, the hate, the evil, everything in between. No one is grateful anymore. I am ready for my cabin in the woods, away from all the bs. Everyone of us is all in this together, like it or not. We need more kindness in this world, stop being so clicky with each other. I know many of us have tried or, keeping trying to treat others how we want to be treated. I know, I get it, you aren't getting good karma in return. I get it, I feel it everyday, I am rooting for you.

Just don't change who you are. People need that kindness and honesty in their lives. You may never see it returned, but even the most jaded and spiteful people appericate the kindness, even if, like you, they feel it might be some kind of front.

@Shades3535 Sometimes, the hard things are the important things.

Finding lately that it's getting harder to do that. The change is happening everyday. Seems it's the older generations I have had just about enough of.

I'm sorry to hear you're feeling this way. It can be really tough when you feel let down by others. Your kindness and honesty are valuable traits, and I hope you're able to find the positivity and peace you're seeking.

Yes, we often encounter people like this.If I encounter such people in my work, I will be on guard and find ways to solve them. If it is in my life, I will stay away from people I don't like

Sorry for that. But maybe try what I do?? I have like 3 or more personalities depending on the person.. I can be soft I can be hard I can be rude and anything. depends on how they act.. I previously got used by people when I am so YES (like I can't say no) and yea I learned from that

i am rooting for you too. maybe because i am tired of people being mean and rude, i am still trying to be honest and kind but it backfires to me so i feel more hurt when i was younger. i feel i don't know the other way; if a see a granny that noone will help with putting things into her bag, i will do that but i don't receive the same, which makes me sad sometimes. it is a tough battle.
