Wouldn’t know. I’m one of lifes winners.

But seriously, it depends on what it is. If it’s something I can fix I’ll make every effort to do so if I’m at fault. If it’s because someone has expectations of me that I can’t reach, then I find it’s good to talk through with someone neutral to the situation. It’s hard not to internalise it but talking it through can put things into perspective

Oh heck. All you can do is apologise and try to put it right or demonstrate that you will work to improve whatever it is. Messaging always open if you want to talk.

couple, us we him her.

OP your in a rare group of people who actually give a shit about what others think.

Try to look at it in the positive that you care enough to feel this.

Many people nowadays couldn't give a flying fuck.

Absolutely terrible if it’s people I care about

I think it depends on the context.

We can’t keep everyone happy all of the time. Sometimes people will be disappointed in our choices/actions/answers. But if it’s a choice between what is right for us and makes us happy, sometimes we have to put ourselves first!!!

However

If we’re talking sexually….then I’d look at why and what I could do differently to improve the experience

It really is.

I remember when I was a child, if my parents were mad I'd be upset but if they said they were disappointed in me I'd be distraught

Parents knew what they were doing with that line though. Bastards

Yeah 100% it still feels horrendous but that’s how I try to rationalise it in my head.

North East Scotland, mostly

This fear put me in therapy. The first time.

Mostly people care much less about us than we think. As a chronic people pleaser and overthinker, this took a while to sink in. Replaying conversations in my head is always a warning sign for me. There's a fine line between reflecting on things and getting stuck in a spiral of overthinking.

Of course there are times when this has actually happened and then it's apologising, acknowledging the impact and repairing the relationship.
