People with a strong sense of autonomy tend not to rely heavily on external evaluations to confirm their self-worth, and prefer to live according to their own judgment and principles. This independence can make those accustomed to seeking security through social comparison feel uneasy, even develop defensive psychology, and may transform this unease into hostility toward individuals with strong subjectivity. At the same time, people with a strong sense of autonomy usually do not act according to others' expectations, which can disrupt some people's psychological assumptions about relationships and make those who rely on established patterns of interaction feel uncomfortable. On the other hand, if there is an implicit expectation in interpersonal relationships that "if you are kind to me, you should listen to me," individuals with a strong sense of autonomy may resist this invisible constraint, potentially causing the other party to feel denied or out of control. Additionally, such individuals value practical worth over superficial rules and may challenge conventional ways of doing things, thereby affecting those who depend on default rules and interest exchange logic. Overall, people with a strong sense of autonomy are not actively opposed to society, but their independent judgment makes interactions based on dependence, control, or utilitarian calculations more prone to tension.
