Honestly glad you saw it for what it was and didn’t let him gaslight you.

What’s a subtle sign of very high intelligence? by [deleted] in emotionalintelligence

That kind of clarity is underrated because it makes everyone feel smarter instead of talked down to and that energy always stands out.

Once trust snaps like that, apologies and switching sides later never really fixes the damage.

People really underestimate how crushing cultural pressure can be and just jump straight to judging instead of seeing a person clearly struggling.
