You tell them how you feel. They say you shouldn’t feel that way. When you protest, they say YOUR the one disregarding THEIR feelings (about how you feel).

Something he said or did will bother or offend me. I will tell her exactly how I feel, directly. She will, in one way or another, tell me she doesn’t think I feel that way and I actually feel another way. When I disagree or protest that statement and explain why I feel the way I do, I am then accused of being the one not respecting how she feels.

Sometimes I just want the ground to swallow me up.
