Dude came up to me in the gym one day, complimented me, and then told me he had a nickname for me. It was such a weird encounter

People will tear apart those that bring them the truth if that truth contradicts the beliefs they’ve built their identity around. If someone has built their identity around being a successful business person they will howl and scream about their acumen whenever they are confronted about their failures. If they claim they’re intelligent they’ll scream and shout at anyone who contradicts or corrects them. In their minds a truth that contradicts the belief is a betrayal and must be fiercely punished.
