Don't EVER disagree with your friends online. They will come down on you harder than your enemies.
Just an opinion, based on a recent experience.

@4meAndyou same .
And i think thats what makes any conflict harder.
I mean, if they are wishy washy with little depth....its easy to not care or give a shit.
But when its someone you DO care about ....words can cut deeper.
Its so hard to step back and not get pulled down by a hurt.

@TheGreatLeveler Well...quite a few of my friends on SW seem very kind, but I have never disagreed with any of them before. I wonder about them now, but one of them has been friendly to me for three years. I always hesitate to remove people like that from my friends list.

It's true. I have first hand experience of lowering the boom on a "friend" who attacked me and some friends over our criticism of the NY Post cover photo of Biden looking at his watch as the caskets of American military came off the plane after the Afghanistan withdrawal fiasco. Told him in no uncertain terms to fuck himself. Will not talk to that mutherf***er again. Granted...there is more to the story, but that was the last straw.

@BizSuitStacy I remember that photo. It was so shameful. I am sorry that you found out your former friend was a douche. My friend is not. I will always be her friend, despite a brief spat.
BizSuitStacy · M
@4meAndyou I knew he was a leftist douche, but we shared other interests and the friendship was ok as long as politics weren't discussed. I never jumped on any of his idiotic Trump rants on Facebook. But he took our criticism of Biden in that photo to pull the "waddabout Trump" nonsense. Then got real vulgar with some of my other friends. I blew a fuse.

But isnt that a good thing ?
Don't you expect your friends to be completely honest with you?
Conflict is so HARD to deal with.
But real friends work through it.
I mean, ive had some doozies of arguments with friends here, but we come out stronger afterwards.
Id hate to think people agree with me just to hang out with me.
Not saying that it isnt a trial, and it doesnt hurt. But friendship is about honesty and good intentions, support and challenge.
Id hate to think if you and i disagreed on something that itd end our friendship.
Theres so many things to value about you, that im sure a few differnt opinions wouldn't matter.💜

Sorry you had a horrible experience.
Personally I will not agree with people I know or don't know for the sake of friendship.
If everyone agreed with each other 100 percent of the time the world would be pretty boring.
Why not say "lets agree to disagree " and move on. Sure would solve a lot of problems.

Ppl are more upfront and harsh when they’re backed by a screen.Not two cents goes into typing their opinions which are as unrealistic as they’re.

Just for disagreeing? Wow. That is really sad to hear. I wouldn’t do that. Go ahead disagree with me. I dare you. 😉

What kind of friendship is this where you can't dhare your opinion. It clearly means your aren't friends
Online is easy, it's offline when it counts.
