This is utter bullshit. Whoever wrote this is so out of touch they might as well be floating in space. Don’t let unkind people walk all over you, show boundaries and do not forgive those who haven’t earned it first, love those who love you in return. Your actions reflect who you are; are you a person with standards, self-worth, and compassion for those who deserve it, or are you a doormat, doomed to be walked over by people who wouldn’t piss on you if you were on fire?

Forgive but nix those assholes out of your life asap

Love unconditionally? So love a good person and a bad person the same? Just ignore who they are and what they do, and love them?
Do you understand how absurd and toxic that is? Do you understand that if you claim to love everyone, whether they deserve it or not, the word becomes entirely meaningless?
Can you imagine being in a relationship, and telling the other person “I love you, but, then again, I love everybody. I love that lady who stole that kid’s baseball at the Phillies game just a much as I love you, and there’s nothing you can do to change that.”

No, I don’t think so. Fuck mean people. As a wise man said, paraphrasing, I don’t want you to go hungry, just don’t eat at my table.

I think to an extent this can be helpful. You don’t have to let people walk all over you, but can quietly send them love and forgiveness and the hope that they can get better so they no longer have to act in that lower sense anymore.
Just a tiny example: a car cut in front of me and then we came to a red light so I couldn’t make a right turn until the light turned green. I would usually get mad at this person being so inconsiderate (that’s my biggest pet peeve) but instead of wishing them an inconvenience to get back at them, I wished for them to have a beautiful easy day so maybe they would have the ability to be more considerate to the next person.
But definitely if a person is abusive/toxic, cut them out. But you can still quietly send them love in hopes they’ll grow.

There are psychopats, this equation is missing a great deal. Don’t throw pearls for swines.

Be an example.
Call out people who are unkind, remind them they should be better.
Forgive people who don’t deserve it, but only after telling them what they did was wrong, and they should do better.
Love unconditionally, but don’t be a doormat.
Your actions always reflect who you are.
Don’t take shit from anyone, and don’t be shitting on anyone either.

Total crap. Good way to get run over all your life. I’ve literally tried the kill em with kindness but for an extended time as kind of an experiment. People don’t take you seriously, or worse take advantage of you. Be a good person, but always stand up for yourself.

Yeah kindness really helped us avoid this situation we’re in

That’s just asking to be walked all over… again

Nah, fuck this. there’s a saying “don’t cast pearls before swine” for a reason.

Love the person, not the sin. A lot of people in the comments misunderstand this. They think forgiveness = weakness and love = being a doormat, but that’s not what this is about. A lot of the West’s morality, including the very ideas of human dignity and the abolition of slavery, came from this teaching of Jesus. This isn’t OP being “out of touch” this ***is*** reality. Everyone’s forgotten Christ, and everything has become subjective.
Look at these replies. You set standards that are *subjective*, conditions that are *subjective*, in order to decide who deserves love. You make forgiveness depend on feelings of anger and revenge, instead of the objective worth of a human being made in God’s image. That mindset doesn’t elevate you, it diminishes the value of others and hardens your own heart.

Love that I pissed off enough people by saying I wasn’t disappointed by the comments here to get an official reddit warning AND several people sending “help” my way. Keep up the good work, folks, I’m feeling very *motivated* 🤗

Respectfully, no.

The kindness you show to unkind people is understanding where they come from, not keeping them around.
You forgive people who don’t deserve it only so you can move on, not to allow them to continue being unkind to you.
The unconditional love is reserved for those that make you feel safe and who you share a connection with.
Thelnsomniac on
I’d rather not. And please…anyone reading my comment. Don’t let people walk all over you. You are better then this. You don’t need to become a martyr or a doormat. Live proud. Have boundaries and enforce them when needed.
