Does a painting explain??
Quite often you talk cryptically and can be hard to follow.
I think you’re an acquired taste.
But I get where you’re going on most occasions.
I think what it is, you think in a very artistic and abstract way. A lot of people think very linearly. One thought to another, in a straight line. You think more in bubbles, and sometimes the bubbles overlap in multiple places. So you might see a connection between two things where other people would see them as being unrelated.
This leads to people thinking you’re talking about one thing, but you are talking about a totally different thing and then get frustrated when people don’t understand you.
great response, thanks for taking the time.
I sometimes get butt hurt on Facebook, posting into dead air.
Nobody likes me, everybody hates me, I’m gonna eat some worms!.
ha.
I don’t always understand what you’re talking about
it can be confusing, Patrick, cuz I listen to a lot of alternative hard rock, but love doggies, humanity, and much more.
It can be hard to not get upset when you are asking for support and people don’t respond. But I do think that more people would make an effort to respond if they knew you would be patient about misunderstandings. Sometimes you are, and sometimes you yell at people. It’s the unpredictability. I’ve been talking to you for years now, and I mostly get the patterns, so I don’t take it as personally when you yell. A lot of people here are used to everyone yelling at them and insulting them in real life, and on here they are trying to escape that.
WHAT!? I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU JUST WROTE THAT!!!
whatever. only when provoked. think about it. it goes both ways.
Your boozing doesn’t help, @Daze.
We can all tell when you come on this site after you’ve had a few.
Just being honest.
leaving this site for today. see you guys tomorrow.
It’s something I’ve noticed about conflicts in my time here, and IRL in my job. In almost every conflict, both sides feel like they were only responding to being provoked. Very rarely does anyone intentionally provoke someone else.
I have found that assuming good intentions helps a lot with avoiding conflicts, or with quickly resolving them in the beginning. I can’t always live up to that ideal, because sometimes I am grouchy, but it does seem to lead to better results.
See you tomorrow! Hope you feel better.
Have a good day Daze. See you tomorrow.
it’s supposed to be supportive, doesn’t that go for me too, and not an all out criticism of me?
forget it. I’m an other. just like Annie Sexton said. bye.
