I have recently worked with some people about relationship struggles. People have very different personalities and sometimes those differences create clashes.
One thing that I think is important to remember is that just because someone has an opinion about you doesn't change who you are; their opinion is just a reflection of who they are. Listening to their opinions and then seeking to understand why they would feel or speak that way might help us better understand who they are and what their needs are. Judgments and harsh words always come from a place of pain.
It takes maturity to not react when someone lashes out at us, but if we just pause before reacting, we can evaluate whether there is any truth to what has been said and if not, shrug it off. Don't give rent free space in your mind for thoughts that hurt you.
Also, if the same issues keep coming up for you, it might be time to be still and ponder what you're supposed to be learning from these issues. It could be that you have something you need to change in the way you treat others, which takes some humility to admit. It could also be that Heavenly Father is trying to teach you something about love and forgiveness or something else just as important, that you can't learn any other way. Or it could be that your body is ready to release some trauma from the past. Similar circumstances tend to resurface until we have addressed an issue. It seems very unfair that those who have been abused are more likely to experience such events again, but it is often the case. However, when healing takes place and that trauma is released, we are no longer attracting that kind of energy into our biofield anymore.
