from the The Place to go to for emotional support threaad
If it bothers you, practice not taking things so personally, or don’t be around those who bother you.
It is the lack of control over the issue that makes me mad. There are avenues but past experience says it will do me no good.
Don’t try to control the issue. Control yourself. If you can’t control your emotional reaction, control your exposure to the offense. Darth Id used to really bother me. But this is the cold Internet, people act rude, and I decided I don’t care if he insults me anymore. Usually, I ignore him, but when he does try to insult me, I just don’t let it get to me. Ignore what you don’t like, or get away from the situation. You are clearly a nice guy, but you let too much bother you, and try too hard to control the direction of the forum. Accept what you can’t control, and control what you can, and you will be a lot happier here.
Thick skin, thick skin, thick skin, no-one cares, I’m never right, move along, got it.
This persecution complex is why you don’t enjoy yourself here and is why people get annoyed. Honestly I thought you were doing great until you happened to notice an almost two week old comment.
I’m doing okay. There is no persecution complex and my doctor is the only one I go to for diagnosis of anything. Warbler got me bent out of shape yesterday because he was in a bad mood and due to my emotion, I was aparently the best candidate for him to lash out at. It’s done, it’s over with. I appreciate your concern.
I sorry I crossed a line a bit, but to get this bent out of shape over what I said to you, is way, way, wayyyyyy, overracting. Calm down.
I am really sorry about your friends misfortune warbler.
thankyou.
I do however need to distance myself from you because like some others, you just don’t know when to stop, and act like it’s all okay even though you’ve just asked for prayers in another thread.
if you want to distance yourself from me, fine. My asking for prayers for that family as nothing to do with our dispute in the 2nd politics thread. People in my church has asked for prayers for said family and so I thought it would be a good idea to ask those here that pray, to do so. The two situations just happened to occur simultaneously.
It isn’t okay. I end up creating my own issues trying to defend myself because I am the only one speaking for me. Most don’t bother, others start complaining about me along with you afterwards, and the rest … well, I’ve been told that what I think doesn’t really matter.
I really wish you had not let the stuff that went in the 2nd politics thread yesterday get to you so much. It isn’t worth it. I am not worth getting this upset over. I sorry if I crossed the line, but I can’t stand Trump and those that seem to defend him no matter what. I never said what you think doesn’t matter. Heck, even if it didn’t matter to me, that doesn’t mean that overall it doesn’t matter. I don’t get to decide such things.
You can’t be all religious/righteous on one side and then mean/ignorant on the other. If you believe you’re a decent person then be a decent person but if you believe you’re not, then don’t act like a decent person, be who you really are.
I’ll act how I wish to. If you want to think I am a lousy Christian, so be it. I admit I am not the prefect example of a Christian. I am what I am. My ultimate judge will have to decide in the end.
What I think doesn’t matter. You’ve been taught that it’s okay to act the way you do. If I reported you, it wouldn’t even matter, I am getting what I deserve by some trains of thought here. You may rationalize it however you like, it makes no difference to me, that is just how it is.
The fact of the matter is, even the new rules can not change, what has already been in place here for so long.
Since you probably won’t listen to or understand me, and probably won’t/can’t discuss this rationally, there is no point in continuing this conversation with you.
