[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This does not sound like a work vs not work thing.

It sounds like you are a 'sad sack'. Are you? Are you sad? Are you struggling with your new life?

I think you are, because if you are not, the comment would not bother you.

My mother use to say, if somebody calls you a duck do you think "am i a duck" no... because you know you are not.

If somebody says "you're fat, or ugly, or stupid" and you get upset, it's because you think it about yourself. [/quote]

Wow, I just said something similar to my teenagers.  If you know a description doesn't fit you, you think something is wrong with the other person's perception.  But you are not sure, that's when start perservating.[/quote]

Good for you, this is actually what we teach starting in middle school. Everybody in this world will hear a story about you that is not true, who cares. Your close friends and family know the real you. Let the stories go, be you, be confident in who you are. No you didn't sleep with Joey Jock at the homecoming but everyone said you did, who care, you know you.[/quote]
