Insecurity is a major reason why someone is upset with you, even though you did nothing wrong. People claim you have wronged them, but you have not. They are quick to accuse you of something and are enraged by everything you do.
As someone who has encountered this type of individual, perhaps you’re curious as to why they’re so enraged with you. However, it is not you who is at fault; it is them. Therefore, before confronting them, you must first understand them; perhaps you did something wrong, or they are simply too insecure.
Here are several indicators that someone is insecure.
1. They criticize
Individuals who criticize you without committing any offenses are a sign of insecurity. They see nothing positive in you and are proud to proclaim what is wrong with you. They regard themselves as too superior, not because they are better compared to you, but because they perceive in you the qualities that they lack.
However, those who criticize have two sides. First, is that they lack the traits that you possess, and the second is that they have been subjected to criticism and, in order to feel better, they criticize.
2. They are Reactive
Reactive people are ones that are constantly responding to something. They accuse you of making everything you say and post on social media is all referring to them. In fact, the issue is not with you; it is with them.
Occasionally, they will make allusions to you, but when confronted, they will deny.
3. They compare themselves to you
Why do people feel the need to measure themselves against you? Because they desire a sense of dominance. They think of themselves too high, so you will feel low.
Quite often, you can verify someone’s feelings based on how they make you feel. Clearly, when someone is continually attempting to make you feel down, they themselves feel low.
Hurting people hurts people, whereas, insecure people insecures people.
Now that we’ve identified several signs of insecure individuals, the best way to deal with them is to IGNORE THEM.
The more they are ignored, the more enraged they become, and eventually, those around them will regard them as toxic. Allow others to cope with their attitudes, especially when you do not know them personally.
Do not be concerned if they tell you something awful about you; your friends know who you are. You are not required to demonstrate your worth to others.
What if they do not stop?
If they do not stop, that’s the time to talk to them. Individuals may experience insecurity for a variety of reasons. Whatever the cause, showing compassion and respect to them can go a long way!
If someone says something harsh, listen for truth in their words but defend yourself against inaccurate exaggerations or destructive statements.
Then, attempt to identify the source of their insecurity.
Moreover, if you are this someone who is experiencing insecurity, attempt to self-evaluate.
What enrages you?
Why are you making threats?
Is this a healthy practice?
Who were you before?
Because the only one who can put an end to insecurities is you. Nobody is going to do it for you unless you do it to yourself.
