How to use "Dis approval" in context?
Though many of us may enjoy a good opinionated tirade, we can also find ourselves cringing when someone openly disrespects us. We might think, "why does this person have to be so mean?" But as we all know, there are plenty of people who thrive on mindless negativity.
It doesn't have to be a personal attack. Disapproval can come in a variety of forms, from ignoring us to making snide remarks. In any case, the message is clear: We're not good enough.
And the sad thing is, this kind of treatment can have an indirect impact on our self-confidence.
