You guys: a stranger on the internet doesn't like me. *Gasp*

See, I got in a fight on the internet. I know I know, but to be more accurate others were fighting - I was being reasonable and (fairly) respectful. But it still resulted in an angry letter and being blocked. My whole worldview is shattered. Actually, the reason I'm writing this is that I realized I didn't give one single fuck about what some stranger thought of me. In my younger days I was desperate to be liked by everyone, so these little realizations are interesting. I still find myself saying things like "I'm not confrontational at all" only to realize that statement isn't true and hasn't been for several years. Realizing that we often typecast ourselves has been, for me, one of the keys to moving past some of the mid 20's growing pains I've had recently.

What about you? Are there ways you continue to define yourself that may no longer be accurate?
