@FeartnTired Yes. It is hard not to take it personally.

But, really, someone else showing off their arrogance, stupidity, and cruelty is more about them being petty, cruel morons than it is about anything to do with you.

Even when it has a catastrophic impact on your life.

I mean, saying "it isn't personal" when you ruin someone's life is actually worse than if you said you hate them.
