I’m so fed up because people tend not to take me seriously at all, it’s like they never stop to consider what I’m saying and immediately dismiss or disagree with it. I find it hard not to get flustered when someone’s telling me something I know 100% is bullshit but because they think they are more experienced than me they just make up stupid reasons that make no sense for why I’m wrong and it seems like I’m the fool because the reasons they make up are so illogical there’s no obvious ways to counter them and when I say that makes no sense they just say “it’s complicated stuff, it’s normal you don’t understand”. This feels like gaslighting and it is particularly annoying because I’m 21 and the guys saying this stuff to me are 17 and I’m tired of being belittled even by people younger than me. I’m thinking it’s partly because of sexism but can anyone give me advise on how to deal with this.
Another thing that’s making me upset is when I talk to my closer pals about this, they don’t seem to care much, it makes me feel even more like I’m the crazy one making a big deal out of nothing. I feel so disrespected and undervalued.
Please help 🙏
