Some people just don't listen.

While others have trouble opening their minds even the tiniest bit.

Those kinds of people tend not to understand how certain people live their lives or even the decisions they make.

As a result, many people have to explain, or even defend, certain things about themselves repeatedly.

And while nearly everyone should be proud of who they are, and have no need to explain or apologize for themselves, it can get exhausting having to explain this to people over and over again.

Particularly to the same people.


Redditor Rare_Gas_ was curious to hear the things people were exhausted of having to explain over and over again, leading them to ask:

"What fact are you Just TIRED of explaining to people?"
