I don't see why online is any different from everyday life. We're still saying the same things with the same intention and motive. It's just that we're geographically distant from who we're saying them to. Since when did geography decide how insulting something is?
To answer your question, though, if someone says something insulting to me, I try and put myself in their position and wonder why they may have said it. If I deserve it, fair enough. If not, it's usually out of jealousy or ignorance or whatever, and it's them that has the problem, not me.
If you watch a porno there is 100% chance you did not get her pregnant. Being an online virgin is not the same as being an offline virgin.
i agree but i have one question...after you realised its your fault and its fair enough what they said or why the said it what are you suppose to do to make things normal again?? how long would it take??
your sooo truly right I have been in that position many times but i take it in a diffrent way that then I say sometihng back its like a life cycle I go thru
Sure I get hurt. Generally I suck it up and realize that they are ignorant. I'm sensitive so I feel words. And some people are cruel to each other for god knows what reason. My guess is that they must not like themselves very much. But I also get hurt when I'm not involved. Seeing someone post a stupid comment just to post a stupid comment shows such disrespect. I remember those names and take note when they post elsewhere.
i dont realy get upset but it pisses me off cuz its main;y racist comments dat piss me off
No. But then again I've never had anyone I knew or cared about say something mean so if that were to happen I might be hurt. But random idiots I don't even know or care about?? No.
It depends. If I am trying to get someone to insult me, then it's funny, but if it is someone who knows me personally, then it can hurt.
It's good to not take it personally, but to say I was never hurt would be lying. Some of the stuff I see is absolutely vicious.
It's even worse when your own family leaves those comments on your account using their own names. THAT is hurtful.
I usually get a bit of a shock that someone is being nasty to me for no reason, but it doesn't last very long and then I go back and have a look at what I've said: often there's a misunderstanding that can be cleared up or if I've upset someone I usually apologise, depending on how consistently nasty I've noticed they are to others as well as me
One particular person and I seem to push each other's buttons but I'm not hurt by him, usually amused and entertained as well as irritated or disgusted.
Whenever they say something mean, I bully them back till the point where they threatened to call the police...
Yes, I have on particular posts I was emotionally evolved in, which were commented on in harsh (but truthful) ways.
When you say online do you mean random people from the internet?
I was hurt by cyber bullying kids from my school when I was in middle school.. but idk if thats what you mean.
I don't care what people say they don't know me so i don't give a flying fuck about it
Some people can be real dicks online...it makes me so freaking mad when they insult me for no reason. ಠ益ಠ
i think it's easier to insult people on the internet (have you seen those intense arguments in a youtube video commentary?!!!!lol) because you don't see them personally and you only know then from their comment. so people might have more confidence to say whatever they want (not always) online.
Strange enough it hurts me. There are the relations in the internet. If something is going wrong it is unpleasant. But it is the life.
People once thought that if enough monkeys typed on enough computers indefinitely, we'd eventually get the greatest novel ever written. We now know for a fact that's not true. Most poeple on the web are idiots, I tend to ignore them
I said other.
Maybe hurt a weeeee bit at somepoint, but in general my skin is pretty thick online. Who really cares what people say about you?
well i believe nobody is really rotten to the core. just the ill-perceived mind which the individual will act upon. yes this includes hitler and even serial killers. Accepting them to be of such evil only justifies what they lack. (common sense/open-mindness In reality they are just individuals like me and you but who lack of love and common sense. Their minds crumbled at one point and false judgement hit them.
Free your mind. The rest will follow.
this includes people that hurt other people online. Doing what they do only highlights their insecurities. Don't let other people influence what you feel, and do what you KNOW is right.
You'll be surprised, but nobody is greater than anybody else. Were all the same. After all how could we really judge another human being a human yourself. our opinions will always be biased. and people can ALWAYS change. some are just a challenge.
my friend is in the process of uploading this but she needs answers now!! she is kinda in need urgently. I didn't know what to do so i am asking you guys for her :)
hope you can hel ASAP, thanks.
my friend friend is a girl too.
yes i have...
i need help with something really important can you guys help me please? its kinda URGENT!
I had a `fight`with a friend i knew six months ago. after the fight things got strange and awkward, well for me she didn`t care much. --DAYS PASSED-- i msged her and well she was being dry and kind of rude so i asked her what was the need of being like this if i was trying, actually not trying i was being nice and she responded that way. she told me: "there is a diference in being nice and being annoying"
-what does this mean?
-can i change being annoying in one week so on friday when we celebrate a friend's birthday it won't feel awkward and shw won't feel annoyed that i am there
-can she stop being annoyed in one week?
-what can i do? i don't want our friendship to slowly die...she will not talk to me first and if i don't, she will not!! she liked me for being crazy,weird,funny, random,etc.. buy i got annoying talking to her " everyday" online even though we see eachother everyday.
-should i ignore her or just stop talking to her and when we are obligated to talk i'll just be funny crazy and things like that and act like nothing is going on!! how should i act??
-what can i do so it doesn't feel awkward beetween us.
i have one week because in one week we will be together in the same place..so i need help for a one week time spand and for a long term solution
thanks
approach her calmly and kindly. tell her u still want to be friends and if u did something wrong, apologize. don't talk to her online. talk to her in person. if she acts like a dick to u, just ignore her and move on. maybe u two will be friends again after some/a lot of time passes by. and if u don't that's fine too
It stings for a little while but I forget about it. But I sometimes I think, why would you want to say something like that.
To be quite honest, I feel sorry for people who feel that they need to satisfy themselves by insulting people online who they've never met before. I do reply and retaliate if it's directed at me or if they're wasting their time slagging off something/someone they don't like as if they think they could change peoples minds. Otherwise I'm not bothered. I don't let them get to me, you shouldn't either, they don't know you and you don't know them
I do get hurt but I forget about them soon enough. Other people can be stupid and so can I. Part of being human. Some people are all mouth, too. Boredom does that.
Of course it's normal! Dumb jerks who don't care about other peoples feelings do that.
