    I had to do it on purpose to make OH look like an idiot. Didn't intend for it happen to you. I told you all I'm SO much smarter than she is.

    No, you didn't have to do anything. Why do you care if she understood you or not? Why won't you let this crap with OH rest. EVERYONE is sick of hearing it.

    Amen!

    If you're "so much smarter", then start acting like it. Your behavior isn't making anyone look like an idiot but you, & I know that's not what you want to do. You seem to be a smart young man, but this silly little beef you got going with OH is stupid.

    That's why I tried to put her on ignore again and posted it. I told you, you can only do so much with the ignore function.

    Yeah, but you've done that so many times before, it has no real meaning now. You need to chill out & start thinking; it's almost like you're running on emotion or something. You're not only setting yourself up to be played, you're also playing yourself, Mikey.

    Okay. I guess my post on the other page wasn't the best way of confronting OH. I couldn't let it slide though, I had to post it to prove that her point wasn't right, although it upset you and whikle. I knew what she said was easy (in my mind) to contradict. Just like if someone else said something about you that was weird or controversial and you couldn't disprove it, someone else would have to have your back.

    Excuse me for sounding like a mom (my son is your age), but I'm going to try to explain this to you. It doesn't matter what post you're referring to; OH is someone you shouldn't waste time responding to AT ALL. There is no point for you to confront her. Besides, folks are able to make up their own minds about her, & there is no need for you to prove her points wrong when others can decide that for themselves. Don't you realize that if her contradictions are "easy" for you detect, then they'd be easy for others to detect as well? You need to learn how to discern when it's appropriate or necessary to intervene on someone else's behalf & when to leave it alone. When someone knows you're going to try to contradict everything you say, they'll go out of their way to bait you. That's what keeps happening with OH & you either set yourself up or you fall for it every time.

    It's like in the other thread where I told you I'd explain what I meant by my comments...this silly back & forth crap between you two has become a fixation for you (for her too imo). Y'all sound like an arguing old married couple who needs to either make up or shut up. This one upmanship comepetition y'all have going is annoying as hell. My advice is put her on ignore & leave her there. Whether you decide to ignore her or not, you still need to drop it & leave her alone. You'll benefit & so will the rest of us who are sick & tired of it all. You've been behaving as though you're obsessed with her & it's beyond ridiculous.

    Ok then, I guess you're right. I wish someone could delete this thread so this stuff doesn't stay on here. Something about those other previous responses which said that she did like my replies back to her ticked me off and made me think it wasn't a problem to respond. Also, what I put in bold is probably something I need help on. I'm not very good at doing that, I admit it.

    Lastly, as I stated in the daily thought thread, part of the problem we're dealing with that it's the internet is self we're on and there is no self-regulation from an authority like the government. The internet is like anyone's land where anyone can do anything and you aren't really immune from avoiding flaming from other people no matter where you are. I also remember reading something that everyone's maturity level falls on the internet, compared with how the same people act in real life. You are right, and I'll follow with what you say, but you have to be aware that flaming is almost impossible to avoid on the internet. It's something inherently that we'll have to deal with.

    I wouldn't worry too much about wanting the thread to be deleted. It's never long before stuff like this is forgotten anyway. When she said what she did, it was to get a rise out of you because she enjoys the attention; that's the best reason for you not to respond to any of her posts. Why give her what she wants when deep down ypu don't want to do that? As far as decernment goes, you have to ask yourself what your motivation is for responding & what you expect to get out of it. It just takes practice & it's something we get better at as we get older (we all slip from time to time though, so don't get too distressed over it when you slip).

    Yes, the internet makes folks less shy about saying what they want to say when they can be anonymous, & definitely cross the line at times. Sometimes that just goes with the territory. Like I said you have to learn to discern & pick your battles; don't sweat the small stuff & you'll be alright.

    Question: Considering I have only stated my opinion and observations about why you get heat from others and have been considered a troll, how is it that you are the one who decided to paint ME as a villian? You took it upon yourself to view me as hostile and even when I made an attempt to give you the benefit of the doubt that your were not about drama you failed to step up. I don't know where you are getting the notion that I expect you to bow down and be submissive since nobody else on this forum, especially any of the woman here are submissive towards me. I have stated this repeatedly that it is not your silly ass post I have a problem with. It your drama and conflict loving attitude. If you weren't about drama and conflict you would have taken the time to see that and wouldn't be trying so hard to paint me as a bully. Check. Your move Drama Queen.

    Correction...read again. I paint you as a thread bully...I'm the one who is painted as the villian (one who starts drama and conflict by attacking people) by you and some of the others when I defend myself against the likes of you. Let's take you for example Ra. I have been here for about two months. YOU initiated the first discussion between us...not I. You begin to get angry at me because you didn't like my responses to you. However, because I had never conversed with you before, I was not even of aware at first that you were getting angry. I thought we were having a simple discussion. Had I known, I would have backed off as I did when I came to that realization...because unlike one poster said on this thread, I DO NOT get a rise out of having run ins with other members. It's funny how that when she puts people in their place when they stepped to her wrong, it's okay. Yet, when I do it, I am a villian...hmmm.

    She mistakenly feels that I get a rise out of conflict. But the truth is that just because I do not back away from conflict does in no way mean that I enjoy it. I simply don't tolerate unwarranted shit very well. I don't enjoy it at all, BUT I can tell you do, Ra, because like Mike, you can't stay away from me. First you taunt me with your accusations and then I respond to you, but I'm gonna put an end to your shit today. You are not going to stir my pot anymore and then stand back and say, "See yall, I told you so."


    You damn right, I view you as hostile. You were pretentious from the start and now you want act as though you were handing out benefits that day.:rolleyes: I tell you what. You keep your damn benefits. If I need anything from you, I will let you know. You won't leave me alone and yet when I respond to your shit then you come with that "Oh, you're just drama queen" shit.

    That's because you're not stupid enough to step to the other women here with statements like this...
    You don't want them to climb your ass, BUT then you don't won't ME to respond to your sorry ass attitude with me. You want me to lie down and take it. And when I don't, others who see me defending myself against the likes of you want to paint me as the villian and YOU as the victim whose just innocently trying to solve a so called preceived problem that I have on this forum. However, I have no problem except for the fact that I don't tolerate anyone's nasty ass attitude...including yours sweetie. But today, I am turning over a new leaf with you. Since, I am being accused of enjoying this type of interaction...let's end this right now...today. It's over between you and I. I tried to make it work baby...but we must put each other behind us.

    You are obsessed with me baby. You gotta let me go. It was good while lasted, but all good things must come to an end.:D

    Seriously ?? What the hell are you smoking ?? Other than yourself and your make believe hostility I have for you name all of the people that I have been a thread bully with. What are these mysterious benefits that you think I see myself as bestowing upon people on an internet forum? Damn. I stand corrected. You are not a drama queen. You are a straight delusional attention whore. And if this is the best weak defense you can offer for your sorry ass antics you are sad, sad, sad sad. I have seen my share of lame ass bullshitters in my lifetime but you have to be the all time greatest lames ass bullshitter. Twenty four year old woman, so you say, and playing dumb ass games and think that other grown ass adults don't recognize drama and bullshit. You want to know how old I am? I'm old enough to recognize game and bullshit when it's being played. And you are without a doubt straight 100% uncut bullshit.

    So does this mean we are through sweetie? Baby, I don't like living under your spotlight. Maybe if you treat me right, you won't have to worry about me ignoring you sweetie. You ought to be shamed of yourself. What the hell do you thinking you're doing...loving me so wrong. All I do is try to get along with you babe...but I don't like living under your spotlight. It's over baby.:D
