What do you see... A man with confidence, a man so insecure seeking approval from others to validate himself, a man proud of the work he’s put in to his shell ( perhaps masking his inner demons) or a man whoring for likes?? My point is it really shouldn’t matter what others see (easier said I know) ultimately people will always see what they want. Regardless of what we say or do people will only ever see what they want to! “Those that know us the least, will judge us the most” Not everyone is your friend! And never expect to get back what you give in life... not everyone is build as you are. Find comfort in knowing you’re a good person, let their poison be their curse. Be happy - stay driven - be you!
