The person going "Ewww this person is toxic" or the other side?
I used to be like that of wanting to mentor too. I wanted to help others get to where I'm at. Apparently a lot of these folks are serious energy vampires and I am always left mentally exhausted.
Kinda need to wake up to their own BS.
Didn't every guy go through a stage where they punched walls? Or did I really struggle with anger issues during high school?
I had lots of these situations on Steam.
I played a game, liked my time with a player, and they'd send me a friend request. But then it was daily messages about what I was doing, when I would play again, and often some sap story about why I'm important to them.
This was a constant thing that kept happening.
A gay guy once told me my glasses were cute.
Im married to a woman. But in that moment, I considered my new life as his man wife.
As a person of color, we do not trust the police.
This is why.
Hey don't panic.
We don't just know you smoked a bowl. We also know your family, your friends, and your third grade teacher and we've snitched on you.
Wow, history right before our eyes.
Accurate. I found my idea was just recreating reddit mod meetups.
I had a brilliant idea for a app during college. It connected self-identified lonely nerds with other self-identified lonely nerds. Like "Oh you like anime, here is this other guy, and here are five events you can attend together." I was hoping for that Zuckerberg money if this app was a hit.
I ran it through a test trial with a dozen pairings of them in my college campus to see if it had value.
And yeah, a lot of the feedback was that the other person was kind of annoying/intolerable. Which was funny when both of them said that about each other.
Two weeks ago, I saw the loner at the table of an event. Went to go talk to them because they were alone for a while.
In less than 10 minutes, they made a offensive joke that would have insulted half the people here, and complained about their living situation unprompted.
I'm 40 and I don't even use the friend label unless they earned it now.
Facebook really damaged that word for me.
