A woman's family member tried to dismiss her achievement of leaving college after one year, but his attempt backfired. The woman defended herself and her partner supported her, highlighting the importance of recognizing achievements and defending loved ones from dismissive behavior.
We reached out to the woman who posted the story via private message and will update the article when she gets back to us., it’s always good to remember that anyone can be a horrible or rude person. Unfortunately, we do tend to have to spend more time with ourthan we might prefer, so you really can’t escape it. For example, being dismissive of someone’s achievements is the sort of unpleasant behavior one can find in their friend group.
Some people are just jealous or have a nearly compulsive need to put things down so as to not feel as bad about their own lack of accomplishments. This is pretty nasty behavior, but often people will “mask” it as just some sort of “criticism,” for example, as this BIL attempted to do, saying that “it’s not a big deal.”
One can note how he is presenting himself as “just a passive observer” and not acting like he is trying to make her feel bad just to fill a hole in his heart. This is perhaps speculation, but anyone who has been around these sorts of people long enough will recognize the immediate dismissal of anyone’s achievements or positive traits.However, either due to just plain dumbness or a tactical miscalculation, he set himself up for failure by diminishing something he gave up within a year.
Some family members called her out, but it’s worth noting that she hardly “started” this argument. What she said can be construed as cruel, but she was just defending herself. After all, common social decency would be to smile and nod, even if you agree with the BIL. This is a” him, she simply asked a question about why he didn’t manage to finish more than a year. Fortunately, her partner did have her back. At the very least, this was perhaps not the worstexperience out there.
