You Don’t Need to Explain Yourself to Others

Are you finding that you are constantly feeling a need to explain yourself to others?

If so, what are you trying to achieve by doing that?

Is it helping the relationship grow or just causing more frustration for both you and the other person?

In this video I talk about why you shouldn't have to explain yourself to others.

I've had to explain, justify, argue and defend myself to my dad and some other relatives my whole life.This is the way I thought people outside my family were also and I was so used to it I thought it was normal.I have since severed all ties and let go of my family because of all the toxic behaviour and my life is so much better now, I feel like my life is now mine and I'm free.

Timely video. I was explaining myself on why I got rid of a toxic friendship. I don't need to explain myself anymore to others nor do I need to explain to the person I got rid of. They know their patterns and behaviour. They knew what they were doing with their passive aggressive comments. What they didn't know is that I would have the strength to walk away. You can only bully, manipulate, and emotional hurt someone for so long. People Will eventually wake up,

My biological father ONLY ever gives me one day notice when he comes into town and often expects me to drop everything to come spend time with him (he's done this ever since I was a child-divorced parents). While I could take this as "oh he wants to see me" I absolutely hate my need to try and please him by giving him what he wants. He literally told me yesterday he is in town today and when I told him I actually had plans his response was "I'm not trying to guilt trip you but if you don't have time for me then it's ok". I feel the need to keep apologizing but he has never once said he was sorry for anything he has done to me. How do I get over this need to justify my plans and stop apologizing when I have not done anything wrong.

Took my wife a long time to stop doing this. Years! Her family would ask if we’re coming by, or going to the birthday party or cookout… we didn’t want to so she would say no thanks and they’d ask why? Every single time. Does it matter why? 🤷🏻‍♂️ She’s much better at this now.

It took me almost 50 years to learn people only hear what they want to hear. Your video is on point thank you

[IsiahMonroe]

This video is just everything... I loved your delivery.... I find myself just always explaining step-by-step what I'm about to do or what I just did and afterwards I feel like why do I always explain myself. Either so reflection I realized that my childhood definitely shaped my adulthood. Growing up in foster care I was always watched and has explained everything I did or was about to do. Now as an adult I do the same. The good news is I am officially aware of it as of about 3 weeks ago this video definitely is a huge help.

This is my dad to a tee. I think he is a narcissist. We constantly have the same fight over and over because of his interpretations of what im thinking. And when it doesn't align to what he thinks it is, he gets mad. This interaction always leaves me drained and feeling like I have to keep defending my character. He constantly asks these loaded questions trying to push buttons and make me explode so he can have a reason to be the victim and lecture me and detonate my character. I still live with him. Do you have any advice on how i can resist the temptation of responding?

[QCCSPEEDSTER]

I realized this, and I appreciate your content.

[GabrielaNicol]

This is just good and what I needed for today. Thank you for that. 😊

[abhyudayamishra]

Thanks for the video.
It does happens to me most of the time when i try to explain myself and i try to prove my points to get other person’s consent on my point of view.
It cause the conversation to convert into heated arguments, even when other person do not find it interesting, i am trying to prove my point and searching for his consent to get agreed at my point.
At the end of the entire thing i am left with only this thought, that you told in the video, that no one is concerned about my point of views or how i want to see the things, also this phase when i am trying to justify my point it creates a bad impression amongst other peoples.

[rhondabaroli]

Good advice. And my first mistake is not being consistent 💜if your too kind people will not respect your boundaries ..bit o do still love them but it does nit bring out my best side at times.

[DanSan]

I believe for me it's often because I'm seeking validation; however, it could be referred to as self-validation. Good video to remind us that there might be an insecurity right behind. Work in progress as usually, but grateful when a shadow comes to the forefront! Thank you.

Great quote....don't waste your time with explanations, people only want to hear what they want to hear.

Excellent content!!

[DrChaosCurls]

I have no idea why I keep explaining my thoughts about something to my fam and all they understand is what they perceive and I end up getting all unhappy that they don’t understand 😖

[HighSoldierTFOfficial]

sometimes I just don't continue a conversation.So i searched to see if I was being as asshole for just not justifying or repeating myself when someone cuts me off or thinks I'm completely wrong.
Feels good but needing to go this often cause just leaving the person thinking you are wrong feels.. wrong
nice content.
