Immature people

Why is it that if someone is even the slightest bit offended by a question you ask them they block you? Would they do this in IRL or would they tell you that they are offended by it and give you the opportunity to apologize. Afterwards you may mutually agree to either stay in touch or not, but at least you do so as grown ups. I just don't understand the lack of maturity on this and every other internet site.

Why do you see it as immature? In the real world there is a need to be tolerant of people as you have to exist in the same space. The internet allows us to filter people out so we only come across those we want to. Some people want to be on a site with a range of people, opinions and beliefs, others simply want to spend time with people like them and so block anyone outside of that. It’s not immature it’s simply choosing how you want to use this site and who you want to be around. I used to get into arguments on here and it would upset me u til someone said to me, why have those people as part of your experience? You can choose to only have fun and simply only allow yourself to see people who are also just here for fun. It made me see the block button in a whole new way. You can’t be offended if people block, it’s simply there way of controlling their experience of the site, it’s not a reflection on you

@SW-User A valid different point of view. I see both sides.

@SW-User Yes, I steer clear of religious sites. You will find no peace on the Spirituality forum either.
