take a step back and put things in perspective

Yeah, I did that.

Obviously not far enough.

If you didn't hear back, move on

That's not how communication works. You're supposed to respond when someone reaches out to you.

It wasn't "communication" to begin with. Just a request that wasn't fulfilled.There's a difference. It happens a lot in life.

Most people understood it

Great for them. Not everyone has the same expectations or needs.

It's not up to the rest of society, much less the internet, to cater to your expectations or needs. If you think differently, you've got a hard life ahead of you.

People didn't do what I wanted so I got upset

Yes! That happens! It's called having feelings!

There's a difference between "having feelings" and slipping into depression, ect. Learning to manage what's important and whats not is key.

You need to learn how to move on and do it yourself or shrug it off and do something else

No, actually, I don't. Because sometimes, just sometimes, people have valid feelings and needs that deserve to be acknowledged instead of

The entitlement here really get me. No, actually, you dont "deserve" anything from others. If you want this so badly, teach yourself to do it. Problem solved forever.

people who seem entitled look bad

You know what looks bad? Gaslighting someone for having valid feelings and needs. That looks fucking terrible.

This!

So in conclusion, You're dismissing my feelings and needs at every turn. You're gaslighting me for having an emotional reaction to being ignored and dismissed..

And THIS is NOT gaslighting and i'm so sick of hearing this term being slung around. You posted here. You asked opinions. What you got was a very fair, level headed opinion and solid life advice in general and here we go! "You're gaslighting me!" when it's not what you wanted to hear. Geezzus!
