Is it normal to be paranoid about what people are saying to you?

There are some evil people in my life who are very manipulative and say things that seem normal on the surface but have another meaning underneath which is very insulting to me. I am unable to respond to these messages since they are so indirect. I can't spend time with these people anymore even though they are part of my family.

  • Yes, it happens and you can't answer right away. A good strategy is to answer with your behaviors. Stop caring and own your thing ;)

    The older you get the less you care about these insipid individuals.

    Try to distance yourself from these types of people and gently ease them out of your life. They're the stuff that frienemies are made of, my dear. Trust me on this one, I've had my share of encounters.
