Don’t let them win on that...
Feeling detached doesn’t necessarily mean you don’t care. The way I see it at the moment is to feel what’s happening without feeling the need to interact, and just let what’s going on be, without judgement.
I was thinking about haters and people that don’t seem to appreciate what you do in life and how this can affect your self-esteem and confidence. Note that it “can” affect it but nobody said it needs to. We decide to be affected by what others say.
I’m not saying it’s easy but in a way it’s simple. If I get angry about a comment or situation where people are saying mean and untrue things, for example, I choose to react positively or negatively to those. They probably expect me to do so and that might be one reason why they do it or maybe just because they have too much free time, who knows?
The point is, don’t waste your time filling your days with other people’s bitterness: this way, you’re not giving control over your life to someone who doesn’t necessarily have your best interest in mind.
