Do you think some people put themselves down constantly on here because they’re just looking for attention and sympathy from people?

I have been accused of that several times now and as im sure some may do that, I don't put myself down to get attention here. I do it because I believe it.. in saying that it isn't like I don't try getting attention here, because I do.. but not in that way

@PlumBerries I see. So it’s not your intention to attract attention from people. Does that mean that you do it just to vent?

I mostly do it when someone mentions my appearance here. I just write what im thinking and compliments are nice and all but I never see what they claim to see and in a way it is me just being honest about myself. I don't recall ever mentioning it on my own unless answering someones comments or questions but im here to be honest and that includes how I feel about myself.. does that make sense

@PlumBerries It totally makes sense. You’re a genuine one. You don’t go around letting people know about your personal life unless they ask for it. I really like that

I talk about some stuff in my life but not everything. I keep a lot to myself as well. thank you. I guess a better way to describe it is compliments can make me uncomfortable because I feel like im being made fun of and I say what I truly think about myself to them because I don't want to be the butt of anyone's joke

@PlumBerries You’re welcome. And if the compliment is wrong to you, it’s alright to let them know where they get you incorrectly 😊
