snowyorange-96

Ur self

snowyorange-96

snowyorange-96

quickbadger-36 OP

Alright. I guess it's just me that doesn't like when people have labels

snowyorange-96

Well i dont think so

snowyorange-96

Can be others also

quickbadger-36 OP

Maybe. We still relate with people even without knowing if they had those

snowyorange-96

Yes

livelycactus-72

Surely rhats a problem with u about how u treat people based on their conditions and not a problem with them giving u their labels

quickbadger-36 OP

Yeah. Cause having a label can just reduce you to that label even if it's meant for others to understand you

quickbadger-36 OP

Alright

snowyorange-96

Probably true

quickbadger-36 OP

It's a problem with me well they forced on me, let's say I didn't know I would
just be like this person is different from me but now that I know we'll,you can
do whatever you want under the safety of that label and it wouldn't be like when
I didn't know. They think me knowing would help me understand yes it would but
understanding would also mean that I would have to change how I Relate with the
person which might lead to reduction or even making it uncomfortable.
