I have to say something

I've been here for several years, and EP for years before that, and I have never posted anything for public viewing, but I feel that I have to now

In no culture I have ever heard of is any of what I am going to describe here right, not even close

I check my messages earlier this afternoon and see a new member who shares a few of my common interests, so I sent an introductory message and go back to playing yahtzee, a while later i check my messages and I have a response to the message I sent earlier

We talk for a bit and she is very respectful, using slr,or ma'am when needed and not being a mess

She found herself in a position where she needed help and I agreed to try to help her

She leaves the conversation without a word in the middle of the conversation and stays out of radio contact for over an hour (how rude is that?)

I ask what happened and I'm told she had to run somewhere for her kids or whatever, no apology, just assuming I am ok with all of this

We attempt to help her again, and are making progress, when she says I am too slow to help her and she is done and going to bed

I think before I respond, and when I do, im blocked!

For what?

Because you are not mature enough yet to have adult relationships that go both ways, give and take, etc?

You acted extremely juvenile and compounded it by blocking me, cutting off any chance I might have of finding out why you acted like you did, also making me feel like I was in the wrong here, when I clearly was not

Society keeps oking this kind of behavior, and pretty soon you could be shot for a perceived dirty look

You took the cowards way out, by eliminating any chance i had about being heard you really should be made to take a good, long look at yourself....I don't think you, or anyone else will like what they see....c'ya!

This forum is particularly infested with people who act childish and block for little to no reason.
The only one that was worse was meetme.

Around here, just try not to waste too much time on any one person or conversation. Also try not to hold anyone to too high a standard.

I think the reason some people block so fast is because it is one of their little ways of trying to get even with the world. People are a dime a dozen

@CestManan You said it with perfect accuracy. The childishness is mind boggling.

@CestManan At the same time no one owes anyone anything here. She said she had to run somewhere for her kids.

They just met and we’re having a conversation. Why does she owe him anything? Can you imagine being glued to your inbox like that?

Like what, kinda entitled

@iamonfire696 We do all have lives of course. The part that is immature though is how people are so quick to block.

I was just saying basically one cannot expect much on here. Yeah we might have a few people that we talk to on the regular but I think most convos come and fizzle out quickly.

@CestManan I guess I am immature because I would block a man for keeping tabs on me here and I have because no one owns me or my time.

If you get my time and energy you’re lucky and if you’re going to complains because I disappeared because of my children I don’t want to talk to you and I will block you.

Why are men so entitled? It’s pretty ridiculous because for a woman here we can just block a man and move on to the next message in our inbox, I am not short on them.

@Juvia It is mind blowing and I would have no issue blocking a man for that.
Juvia · 18-21, F
@iamonfire696 Same, there is no issue wtih blocking either. Like you can live without a person, you don't need them. People make such a fuss about blocking when people are allowed to choose who to let into their lives and who not to.

@Juvia I completely agree with you

@Jeephikelove that is true but some people block for very Petty reasons.

For several reasons though, yes this forum is particularly toxic. Unfortunately this place can really taint a person's idea of what social media is.
