Penjelasan Tidak Harus Dijelaskan

Dulu, aku tidak pernah mengerti mengapa seseorang memilih untuk tidak menjelaskan sesuatu dan rela mempertaruhkan harga dirinya padahal satu penjelasan saja akan membungkam mulut-mulut usil mereka. Namun sekarang aku mengerti, tidak semua hal membutuhkan penjelasan dan tidak semua orang berhak mendapatkan penjelasan.

It used to baffle me how somebody would rather have their dignity at stake than to explain when all it takes is one explanation to clear rumours up. But now I understand, not everything has to be explained and not everybody is worthy of an explanation.

For those who think there's no point in defending themselves

How do you deal with being called nervous when you're not How do you know when to stop defending yourself How do you make them listen without interrupting How do you hold back tears How do you educate people that what you feel is there. How would you feel if you knew my story How would you feel if i told you you're draining my energy And that you're the reason i go back to that dark place. My thoughts. Being called nervous when you're not can be very offensive to somebody especially when they have been battling an emotional rollercoaster. But what is worse is you stand up for yourself but they think you're just making excuses. This may not matter to many but knowing what I've been through, i hate anything that triggers my pain.

I try to get rid of this bad gesture but thanks to you now I know I'm failing A...

Careless Miscommunication

Communication is key. Meet up and talk. Pay attention to the state of your friend. Notice if there is any warning sign. Are they grumpy? Are they being unreasonably quiet? Not being their usual self? Not excited? Lousy? Why? Have they been like this or is it because you're seeing them after a long time of not being bothered to keep in touch? Is there a possibility of a toxic friendship between you? What's up? Do they have a personal problem which they'd be uncomfortable talking about? All in all,  give them space and don't push.

So, make time to catch up with them. Listen. Talk. It will clear up all the doubts a...
