Done Explaining Yourself
You do not need a permission slip or a panel of judges. Your life is not a group project.
Done explaining yourself.
Your choices
do not need a committee.
Your healing
does not need an audience.
Your no
does not need a footnote.
Some people are committed
to misunderstanding you.
Let them.
Live anyway.

How do you stop over explaining yourself?
Say it once, plainly, and let the silence sit there. Over explaining is usually a bid for approval. Decide whose approval you actually need; it is a shorter list than you think.
Is it rude to not explain your decisions?
No. A clear answer is polite; a defense brief is optional. The people who respect you will accept your no without footnotes.
