How worthwhile is it to cling to their approval when it directly interferes with your happiness? I dunno, I won’t say what’s the right or wrong move, but it’s always sad to hear about the people who don’t feel like they’re allowed to be themselves because of others. You’re 1,000% allowed to embrace it, but only you can really decide if it’s worth the costs.
