know yourself so ell that no one can make you doubt yourself ever again - not with words, not with manipulation, not with their opinions. People love making others question their worth because it gives them a sense of control and importance they don't actually have. They plant tiny seeds of doubt and then sit back to enjoy the chaos they created. Their own emptiness and self-hate push them to make others feel small, so they can feel better. Call it insecurity, call it jealousy - either way, it's poison that spreads fast if you let it. They project their failures onto you and call it "honesty," when in reality, it's just disguised bitterness. They feed off your confusion because it distracts them from the disaster their own life has become. But once you truly know yourself, their opinions lose all meaning. And that's when the fun ends for them - because they can't control you anymore.
