sometimes on DiS I look at a thread and think “I’m not going to reply to that” then I come back 5 minutes later and reply anyway

Caused by a long, long history of me being so conflict averse that I end up going along with stuff that I don’t want to/allow myself to be a bit of an emotional punchbag.

My decision to go but not necessarily with this as the goal, it’s kind of morphed into “oh, we seem to have found an underlying issue which leads to these seemingly unconnected things, let’s work on that”

Not working yet but I’m finding it interesting at the very least.

sometimes it’s hard for me to remember that easygoing people have problems or objections too, as it’s a mindset very alien to me

Everyone is just trying their best innit. Have to try and remember that at all times IMO.

I get in a lot of trouble for running my mouth (surprise) and I probably need to curb it a little. There’s one “friend” I get into constant arguments with which I know the rest of my friends hate but we keep getting put in the same environments together and it’s just so hard for us not to start calling each other out. It’s tiring to be honest.

Historically not very good but seem to be getting better with age. Still say stuff sometimes that I should probably keep to myself though. Work in progress I guess.

you could do quite a good joke response where you post a picture of yourself holding your tongue if you like

Pretty good. Try to think “what outcome do I want? Will saying something make that outcome any more likely?” whenever I’m tempted.

#23

I hold my tongue too much but if something does cross my tolerance threshold then it is really unheld

#25

This sounds like the type of thing you would learn here

Such a good waistcoat.

really depends if I care about them or not. strangers/people/things I don’t care about, whatever. 8/10.

with friends/things I care about, really bad.

I’m great at holding my tongue, the problem is my face will usually give me away.
Someone asks me to agree to something I definitely don’t agree with.

me: [silence]
my face: :face_with_raised_eyebrow:
Other guy: You ok there, Leopardprint?
me: :neutral_face: No probs…
