Speak  for yourself

 is used when someone expresses an opinion and assumes everyone feels the same way, but you don’t agree.

Examples

1- At work, a colleague said, “We’re all fine staying late tonight.” She replied calmly, “Speak for yourself — I already have plans.”

2- A friend complained, “Nobody likes this movie.” He laughed and said,
 “Speak for yourself — I actually enjoyed it.”
