Any one else getting sick of the constant self pity posts on here?

The other night I freaked out on here from just this same topic. I have been tormented for about 2 years now on whether or not to stay. I notice that when I am here I can be dragged down deep and it sucks because I’m actually a pretty positive and silly person. I don’t want to admit this but I think I’ve outgrown the site. I’m ready to surround myself with likeminded people who aren’t sex shopping and looking to get over on people. I don’t want to pretend certain things are ok when they aren’t. I don’t want to be a therapist either. We just don’t have enough people here where people get lost in the mix and we meet new people here. There are some remarkable people here though that I enjoy talking to so I get sucked back in. They keep me here. I wish some of the great people would come back but wish them well and I admire their strength to get the hell out of here.

er not exactly. Great that fun may be had here but it's not the original intention of the site

Stop whining

You are ruining the fun, so much negative energy.

Too much of [u]anything[/u] gets like that, but, this is also a place for expression and some may need that for catharsis.

Ppl come to this site to not be dictated about the things they can or can't talk about

Sorry

Most people come here just for giggles. But not all. The people that vent, moan and groan, seek genuine understanding or a spot of advice has just as much right to be here as anyone else.
It might be true some just post about their sadness. But if you dont like their posts.. ignore or mute. Many people come here simply to post naked pics off the internet for others to lear after (i mute then)... and folk accept that?
Part of the readon this site .. and EP was set up was as a place to find like minded people, to find support and share experiences.
Honestly....a place like this is the only outlet some people have. Please dont begrudge them it.

it can sap the energy for sure
but they need an outlet
and we know by now who'll do that

It is usually the same people. If you've responded to them once and they aren't helping themselves, then they become perennial Debby Downers. Or, as I like to say, Black holes that suck you in. I like to block them once I identify them.

I think you need to be more understanding. You are not compelled to read or respond.
Some people don't have a safe outlet to talk about this in real life. If it helps them to express deep seated feelings and emotions here, you should be happy for them. Let those who care, respond.

As opposed to you, I think it's great for those people to have a public platform where they can talk about their problems.
As far as I know this site's predecessor ("Experience Project"??) was specifically designed as a platform for people with issues.

Personally I’m far more irritated by political and conspiracy theory posts, but good luck telling those who deal in them to take it down a notch. 🤷‍♂️

I also automatically ignore any religious proselytizing.

I'm just tired of the trolls who don't mind their own business 🙄

A lot of people genuinely feel upset, so instead of complaining how about you just help people

To fucking bad your fantasy life has to be interrupted by someone else's reality..

The fact that you have a choice of what posts you read or decide to contribute to the conversation is what blows my mind with some of these ridiculously insensitive comments! Fuck you to make a point of writing about someone else's sadness is bothering you. Go back to playing with your little dicks. Throwing comments like that at someone who is not asking for anything from you, she's allowed to be sad.

Lot of folk feeling tired and maybe a bit hard done by for one reason or another.
Been a cr🅰️p year and nothing seems to be heading upward. So people venting is understandable, even if it doesn't make happy reading.

Yes I hate the whoa is me pity parties. Lots of things to be grateful for even with the pandemic going on.

I mean the intention of the site is to find other people with similar experiences. If people wanna shit post that's cool, i do it too but for peeps like that it's usually their only place of expression. You could always just mute them if it bothers you.
