Derek Ramsay had this mindset when it comes to bashing
Actor Derek Ramsay is no newbie anymore when it comes to dealing with negative comments.
Derek has been in the entertainment industry for many years already. Negative comments or bashing are not a new thing for him anymore. The recent bashing that he received was because of his breakup with his estranged wife, Cebuana celebrity Ellen Adarna.
The actor received negative reactions online, as cheating allegations were directed at him. His supposed attitude behind the camera was also attacked.
In a recent interview, based on the article in ABS-CBN Entertainment, Derek Ramsay admitted that he already has enough experience when it comes to bashing, especially late last year.
He said that one important thing in dealing with negative comments is knowing that these came from people he does not know, and so this should not matter to him.
For him, what he believes and what he believes in himself are more important. The actor also considered the bashing as just “noise” that he should disregard.
“So all that noise is just noise. In one ear and out the other. Sticks and stones can break my bones but words will never hurt me. Is it painful? Is it hard? Yeah, I guess. But at the end of the day, before I go to bed, I tell myself: this is just all noise,” Derek said.
Despite the online bashing, the actor said that this did not affect his posting on his social media page. He was still actively sharing posts, especially on his Instagram story. The actor would even interact with some netizens who were commenting on his social media posts, especially when what they said was constructive for him.
“Actually, if it’s constructive, even though it’s negative ha, if it’s constructed in a diplomatic and polite manner, for me, I answer,” the actor shared.
In times like this, he would take a breath and say that these people have opinions about him, and they said it in a polite way, so he would consider it. If he does not agree with their opinion, he would just move on and reply with respect. However, when it comes to those people “who are not happy with their lives,” Derek Ramsay said that he wished them well.
