Careful with your words.

I always love that I can fall on my knowledge base to understand most things around me.  Where I do not understand random emotional chaos or the bitches (guys/girls) who create it, this is when Science rules my life.  There is emotion everywhere, it can be a lovely thing.  Don't project your feelings onto others or create stories that don't exist.  Some people need to contain the squirrels in their heads.  Such a shame that nothing can be salvaged.  Always remember when people say harmful things to you about something you did not do, they're hurting terribly inside and it's not your mess to clean up.  Hopefully they can patch it up with Mommy or Daddy if they're not dead!

Mind Reading and Projection

(Thinks and believes that others view him in the same negative ways that he views himself)

Another dysfunctional symptom of LSE is the habit of projecting onto others the person's own worst fears. Thus if Joel thinks that he is incapable of something, he believes that others think similarly about him even though he has no viable proof that this is true. If Molly thinks she is unlovable, she decides that the young man asking her for a date is really just teasing her or making fun of her--convinced that he could not really want to go out with her.

Inability To Discern Who and When to Trust

Having been betrayed by those closest to them as children and often by the people they should have been most able to trust and rely on, those with low self esteem are confused about—and unable to discern who and when to trust. Consequently, they often trust the person who simply is nice to them or shows them some attention, opening the door to being easily swayed, taken advantage of, and manipulated, while they don’t trust those who are trustworthy. Only over time can a person really know who another person is and what they stand for, only over time can a person determine if another is truly trustworthy.

Irrational and Distorted Self-Statements
(Carries on an inner dialog in which he makes untrue/unproven negative statements to himself about herself)

Self-statements are the statements we make to ourselves in our heads. Once a child develops an image of himself as inadequate (or not good enough, etc.) he treats himself and expects to be treated accordingly. He tends to be overly critical of himself and to inwardly agree with others' criticisms of him, even though he may initially put up an argument against any negative feedback.

Generally, he tends to assume that other people see her in the same negative way he sees himself. From that point on he may anticipate rejection, expect to be ignored or mistreated and even tell himself he has caused the negative reactions or inappropriate behavior of others. Thus, when someone behaves in ways similar to the negative ways he has already experienced, he sees this as confirmation of his inadequacy, his lack of significance, and then engages in irrational and distorted self-statements that bring on additional negative feelings.
