"If You Behave Like A Loser, You'll Be Treated Like One." True Or False?

[anon1903]

this is related to a movie.

for instance, two sisters got garments as gift, neon pink and yellow. the older sister says that she doesn't like yellow, yellow won't look good on her so she wants to exchange it her younger sister. the younger sister really liked her gift, but she didn't want to cause to a ruckus so she gives up her neon pink dress material. do you think the younger woman is a loser for not standing up for herself?

nope she's mature

yup she needs to learn to communicate

[SnowedIn]

I see two completely different questions here. For the title question, I think the statement is true a lot of the time but not all the time. Maybe a majority (more than 50 percent) but I don't think "most".

As for the question inside your paragraph, no, in that specific instance I don't think the younger woman is a loser.

[anon1903]

Usually people want a little bit of context.

[anon1903]

I think not communicating your needs and just giving up your rights is kinda loser.

But I respect your take.

[SnowedIn]

Regarding not communicating needs and giving up rights -- I agree with you 10000% on that. In general. Referring to the example you gave, the younger woman (according to what you wrote) didn't want to cause a ruckus. I don't see that as giving up rights -- she made a choice to maintain harmony. In that case, my view is not loser. In fact, good thing. :)

But, right, if that's the pattern of someone's life then not good. :)

Controlling behavior doesn't start with big things, I hope you realise that. Toxic people start slow and with small discomfort, and when you start tolerating that they realise they can get away with almost everything.

The older sister in the movie later gives the younger sister's husband su1c1dal threats if he doesn't divorce her.

Could go either way - she may prioritize her relations with her sister as more valuable than the material item itself.

Some give and take - but I would also make sure that the older sister does some gove and take too if ever the younger sister requests and equivalent amt most times - it goes both ways - but that is what can lead to great relationships with others over time.

"If You Behave Like A Loser, You'll Be Treated Like One."

More often than not, it's true.

"It's easy to pounce on the weak."

[LiamJHayden]

Maybe. Sometimes it gets the person empathy.

As for the sisters, I see that as more of "choose your battles" situation. Even if some dude whom I know I could easily flatten cuts me in line, if no one is behind me I just let it go. I don't think that makes me weak.

That’s what I’ve experienced irl. It’s like you’re giving an open invitation to exploit your ass.


I’m not sure about the given description though. I think both yes and no are applicable in her case.

[HippieVeganJewslim]

False, I chose 'nope she's mature,' but true for many people, as there are people who treat practically everyone like a loser. John Lennon sings about Him being a loser ('I'm a Loser'), although He's a legend to many.

[Guy13]

Yes, this is a truth as far as society is concerned.

[Dreamclouds]

Kind of peple have no respect for others , depends still on people education

[Quidthonian]

I am not going to judge, as I don't know their characters, and the inter-personal politics between these two women / girls.

[FreyaRed]

Depends. The question is always the price.

[Luffy1990]

False you just need to be more confident

[Jamie05rhs]

She actually won. Because yellow is hotter anyway.

[Tstrbrainer]

Speaking up is better in the long run

[Ms_Facesitter]

True!

[EaterPeter]

That mostly applies to guys

[anon1903]

It applies to everyone, darling
