Never force anyone to talk to you
In this post, I will detail why you should never force anyone to talk to you. Everyone has a limit… A tipping point beyond which even the most well-intentioned of people will shut down in an attempt to avoid confrontation. For some people, it’s being forced to speak in front of a group. For others, it’s being ambushed on a date. Sometimes, you can find yourself constantly having to force people to talk to you or hear your ideas. You have to realize that if you coerce other people into doing a certain behaviour or cause them to experience a particular emotion, then sooner or later those individuals are going to react in kind.
Here are some reasons you should never force anyone to talk to you.
Sacrificing Your Self-Worth
When you force someone to talk to you, you’re giving up your independence. You’re literally giving up your self-worth in exchange for the safety and security of being heard by someone. You deserve to be heard, respected, and admired for who you are as an individual. When you put yourself out there and take the attention that comes with it, you deserve to be heard back but never force it on someone who doesn’t want to hear you.
Relationships Should Be A Harmony
When one person is always in control, the relationship is bound to fall apart. After all, the other person’s needs come first. When the relationship is based on mutual respect and support, then it’s much stronger than when one person is always in the driver’s seat. Plus, relationships shouldn’t be about forcing people to talk to you—or do anything else—unless they want to. If people don’t want to, don’t. If someone is afraid of being “labelled a creep,” then don’t. It’s their business and their decision. If someone is afraid of you “forcing” them to do something, then don’t do it. There are plenty of other ways to make someone feel comfortable and safe.
Time Is Too Precious
You have the power to change someone’s mind—or change their life. If you have the power to make someone care about you or care about what you have to say, by all means, use it. But when it comes to “forcing” someone to want to hear what you have to say, the results will be very unpredictable. All you can do is try your best, but there is no guarantee that you’ll ever succeed. You’re also asking for many potential “down-sides” when you “force” people to talk to you. Time is too precious these days, so it’s better to utilise that time somewhere else!
You Can’t Force Someone Into Love
This one is important to remember because so many people go into dating with the mindset that they can just force their feelings on someone. No one ever said dating was easy, and if you’ve ever tried it, you know that it isn’t. You have to put in the work and make sure that your feelings are mutual, but there’s no way to force someone to have feelings for you. You shouldn’t force the person you like to talk to you. There are plenty of ways to show someone that you love them without saying it.
