The self-formed bubble is such a common perception-distorting issue. It's the same with "Why aren't there any good guys, all the guys I date are assholes." or "Why aren't there any good women? All the women I date just want my money.".

Well, if you keep dating a specific type of person, you will end up dating that specifict type of person.

I heard or read somewhere a long time ago that you are a sum of the 6 closest people to you.

That's is kinda what I needed to hear today. I struggle with negative self-perception but honestly the people in my life are wonderful and kind.
