Time for an honest confession :
I regret being a soft and sensitive guy. Little inconveniences get me angry. I cannot take jokes on me and if people do make fun of me in public i get really awkward and it becomes an embarrassing moment in my life. I dont want to be like this . I want to be strong enough because the world outside isnt kind on people like me and i would face more hardships in my life because of my innocent nature. How can i become someone like that?

Dude the world needs soft and sensitive people. If you get angry at small inconveniences then give a shot to anger management books and even process your words internally before you say them out loud (this helps me). I get really awkward too when someone jokes about me in public but I have made my close friends understand that I don’t like it so that’s how much i have got control over the situation. And you become strong every time you overcome your hardships. It takes time but you will become who you want to be☺️ (read books abt this if you can)
Any good books you would recommend ??

Anger: Buddhist Wisdom for Cooling the Flames by Thich Nhat Hanh (weird name ik) but type what kind of book you want on amazon; read the description and pick whatever helps your situation.
Being soft and sensitive isn’t a bad thing at all , stop taking it as if there’s something wrong in being that way. The best revenge is keeping silent in their jokes and not responding as if you never heard it, they’ll stop poking at some point, and trust me it makes you powerful.
You are the best just how you are, never forget that !
Yeah but those arent the skills that get things done. People look down on me and dont respect what i have to say or hear my opinion. And i get stuck as to how should i move forward from here. Thats why i dont wanna be soft or sensitive . I may choose to ignore , but sometimes i want to reply to those in the language they understand and shut them up for good.
