Sensitive Doesn't Always Mean Weak

你好!

Just a little trigger warning before we start. This may contain something you don't want to hear and this is just based on my own understandings and I back it up with some researches. I'm not shaming anyone but I'm giving my honest feedback and also giving motivations. I'll be talking about signs of people who are sensitive and weak, sensitive and strong, insensitive and weak and insensitive and strong. But first thing's first.

Sensitivity isn't really a bad thing at all. It means you're caring, empathetic, sympathetic and sensitive to other people's feelings but you have to at least be strong to build a wall for yourself and know what to say to defend yourself without hurting anyone. So just a little advice. If you believe you're weak, it doesn't mean you can't do anything about it. You can if you just have to believe in yourself and love yourself regardless. Your sensitivity helps you to understand people who cares about you and give you advises as you're less likely to be selfish and egotistic to deny them. So before you mistake sensitivity as easily offended, read this take and maybe you'll learn the difference between those 2. Let's get to it.

~Sensitive + Weak~

Those people who are easily offended, don't really know how to stand up for themselves and they always take the blame because of their overwhelming emotions.

They try not to hurt people feel and don't really joke much because they often feel guilty that's why they find it so hard to say no because they don't want to make people feel bad but doesn't mean they don't have humor. They prioritize other people more than themselves and they get easily taken advantage of which is a problem but you can really make good friendship with them if you're sensitive to each other.

~Sensitive + Strong~

They can tell if people are being offensive because of their feelings but instead of keeping it inside and to just let them do it, they're strong enough to stand up for yourself. They don't just base their feelings of themselves but other people who might also feel the same. They're not afraid and they tell them how they feel or even attack them with care.

Yes they're caring. They show feelings and responsibility when they try to heal people. They know what to say and they do the right thing to do even if it means hurting them for their own good but they try to at least do their best to to let them understand why they did it.

But just because they're so caring and sensitive doesn't mean they're not easily to be taken advantage of. You don't wanna mess with them. They know how to take a break from people and they know who's taking advantage of them. They're not afraid to cut ties with toxic friends that's why they rather be alone than to be with the wrong people because they easily get emotionally exhausted but strong enough to be alone and make a decision.

~Insensitive + Weak~

They don't care about other people but themselves and that's what makes them cold and insensitive like a narcissist, sociopath or psycho lacking of understanding and have fragile ego that's why they are easily offended taking things too personally and retaliate with personal attacks or threats.

Fuck you! I hope you die in a hole or I'll just kill you myself for hurting my feelings you prick!!

Because they always think they're right and think it's the right thing to say. You know when bully victims try to be strong but they end up being insensitive instead. That's one cause I can give. When they seek vengeance and that makes them weak because they can't solve their problems the right and hard way.

~Insensitive + Strong~

They're just those people who are cold who laughs and shrugs everything off. They don't care about hurting people or vice versa. Indifferent to almost everything as they continue doing what they do that makes them happy without caring about the consequences they get.

Sensitive Doesn't Always Mean Weak

So before you call someone easily offended, consider yourself if you're being insensitive or not.
