Disrespect Once Tolerated Will Repeat Itself
Respect is the foundation of every healthy relationship
Whether it is personal, professional or social. The moment you allow disrespect to slip by unchecked, you set a silent standard: this is acceptable. And people will repeat what you tolerate.
The first time,some one disrespects you, it is a test - whether conscious or not. Your response teaches them how far they can go with you. If you excuse it, ignore it, or laugh it off, the cycle continues. Before long, small dismissals grow into bigger wounds, and what once hurt becomes a pattern.
Respect is not demanded with anger, its earned through boundaries. When you draw the line the first time, you protect your dignity and teach others how to treat you. Remember, you are not being "too sensitive" - you are being clear about your worth.
