But also I think it must be said that sometimes it's just better not to involve yourself in a conversation where maybe you disagree.

Like if everyone, if all your friends are talking about how they love the new Harry Styles album and maybe you don't like it and everyone's really passionate about it, they love it.

They can't get enough.

It's the best album they've ever heard, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

you don't necessarily need to chime in.

You can remain silent.

I think it's okay to not agree or disagree, just kind of stay out of it.

I do that all the time.

There are times when I feel inclined to enter a conversation, perhaps start a little debate about something,

And then there are times when I don't.

And I don't think when I don't, it's because I'm lacking confidence or whatever.

It's just because I don't really think I'm gonna add to the conversation by disagreeing.

And so I just stay out of it.

And then if somebody asks me, I'll be honest, but also consider the option of just staying out of the conversation.

If you disagree, but you don't really have the energy to get into it, just stay out of it.

You could even say too, if somebody asks you like, oh, what do you think about this?

And you don't really wanna get into it, just be like, you know, I don't really know.

Great.

Last but not least, somebody said, how to stop letting other people influence my thoughts and opinions about myself.

I want to feel more independent in my self-worth.
