You throw something out there, and you don't like the responces
Hmffff
The people who disagree are all "meanies".
I see it all the time.
The suck-up people.
the disagree with anything people.
The i want sympathy people.
The I hate everybody people.

The world takes all kinds!

The you haven't read all 5800 posts by me so you don't know, people...lol
to those people I say....when do you have time to be in a relationship, or feed your kids? aybe you could afford your bills if you stopped paying internet and instead got a job?

We are such an enabling society. Most people can easily fix their problems with a little effort. But gosh we love to beat our own drum, don't we? How's that for harsh?

Because people don't want honesty. They want validation.

PLus, the truth is really hard to swallow sometimes.

People don't want to believe that their life choices have affected their children.
People don't want to believe that they may be the problem, when they complain that EVERYONE else is dramatic, mean, overly emotional, rude, condescending to them.
People don't want to believe that it is THEM when every social interaction is bad, because everyone else has a suck-y personality.
People don't want to believe that the way they treat others, causes them to react poorly to them.

Of course, there are instances when it IS the other person.

BINGO!!! Very true. My problem is being too honest sometimes. Hey, if ya don't like it......pi$$ off. It's just an opinion.

To better ourselves we need honesty, and less validation.....makes us think. This "wishy-washy" crap doesn't cut it.

Well, you'll get no argument from me. I get every inconsiderate moron coming on my threads bringing and enabling harassment. A thread can go peaceful, but then someone comes on and harasses me, which causes me to react badly, and then my thread is closed. I can't stand those people.

So it is our fault that you "react badly"? Maybe you can't handle the truth or your thin skined. Take the bottle outta your mouth and "suck it up Nancy".
