It is just shocking to me how many crybabies there are in one place. I have no sympathy for that. They deserve to be alone. They make the world uglier than it has to be.

I guess I will have to start an ignore list. A shame to have to do that on a board that is supposedly for adults.

Far as I knew everyone was having a discussion about their experiences in this area. But realize it's always 'whining and complaining' when it's not what they want to hear. Who gives a fu*k about appeasing these people? I don't. They hate the thread and the notion of it but yet post in it as frequently as the rest . There's tons of other threads to read, go read those if this one is so egregious.

There's people here who have so many issues, but mean no harm. Then there's others who stir the pot regularly. The former I have sympathy for. I may get tired of them at some point, but I still have empathy for them. The latter, however, I like to play mind games with. If you're tired of the crybabies, either put them on ignore or find another forum. Because honestly, you're not acting any better than the crybabies.

Not arrogant. Blunt, perhaps, but honest. Look up something called "Maslow's heirarchy of needs." It is not psychologically normal to not want love.

And there is PLENTY of complaining on this board. Quite a few people who say they made a "choice" to be alone on this thread have posted a LOT of complaining and whining about BEING alone on OTHER threads. They are also the same people who gender-bash and have nothing good to say about the opposite sex. They're very mouthy with the "men do this" and "women do that."

who cares??? go to another thread or board, plain and simple. then you won't have to read these things. Nobody's forcing you to stay and read it. Trying to 'shame' people into posting in a different manner -- waste of time. LOL.

I feel bad for the people who have real issues, as well. I have major respect for anyone who genuinely tries to get some help in figuring out what is wrong. And again, if people don't want to date, that's their business. But if they were secure in that decision, they wouldn't make a big deal out of it. They certainly wouldn't complain about it, then, much less on the Internet for the whole world to see. That makes no sense, and it makes no sense to get all offended when people respond in kind. Oh, I'm "arrogant" because I say it's abnormal not to want love. That means millions of people in the mental health professions are arrogant, too, then.

However, I see where the tr--er, "pot stirrers" make themselves obvious. It's pretty cowardly and juvenile to write sarcastic rep comments. If people have something to say, it's better to say it on the thread, where others can quote it and respond to it. Anything else is just being a jerk. There's no reason for it.

Lilac I don't recall anyone in this thread saying they do not want love. I really hope you are not including me with the complainers, whiners etc. If you have read any of my posts I do none of these. I also do not blame women for my relationship problems they are my own fault.

read what the therad topic is about and then you can see people are actually commenting on their experiences in this area. So of course some of are going to talk about not dating, etc. Duh. That's hardly voicing it to the world when you're discussing it in a relevant thread.


I don't know if I left you a sarcastic rep comment or not at this point. In case you didn't know (and apparently you didn't) people leave rep comments so as not to DERAIL the thread. It's not juvenile and cowardly, it's the way things are done..... I think we all agree, you've told us how 'wrong' we are, Noted. But when are you going to leave the thread that's so beneath you?
