Guess They Didn't Want My Opinion


When perusing the "recent" blogs I added comments to someone's blog post...one that was asking for opinions. I questioned their opinion, I didn't write anything rude or disrespectfully. I even wrote that everyone is entitled to do things the way they want.

My original post was then followed by a comment from the blogger questioning my experience with the situation. So, I followed up, saying I was experienced and explained again why I felt the way I did.

Since I can't remember every blog I comment on, I rely on the most recent comments I've made feature here on Local Adult Companion. Well, apparently my comments have been deleted, because I can't find that particular one anywhere.

As I said, I don't think I wrote anything that could have been taken offensively. I just answered the question posed, and elaborated on my answer a bit. We all have the option to delete comments made on our blogs, but why ask them, if we don't want to see any answers that aren't in agreement with our own opinion?

BTW the topic was circumcision. Someday soon, I might write my own blog about it, citing opinions I read on another blog.

Whether here, FB or real life, it's clear some people are only looking for validation; honesty is fine as long as you agree with their point of view. I'd say they suffer from low self esteem and only want others to let them know how smart, insightful and wise they are.

When you disagree with such individuals, they only see it as an attack, insult or criticism. So they respond by lashing out or becoming dismissive to "win" the argument. But it's clear to everyone who actually "won" the debate. Next step: Delete

Unlike yourself, Tres, some people don't want the truth and absolutely need ... crave positive reinforcement to feel good about themselves

Happiness is not having what you want, but wanting what you have.

Thank you for the "unlike me", I appreciate that acknowledgment.

There are some that even when they ask for an opinion, cannot fathom that anyone would disagree with them. Its even more vexing to them when its well thought out. Their only "defense" is to delete the post, rather than trying to have a thoughtful discussion. We have had differences of opinions but in no way has that diminished our friendship, and in fact, I welcome them to give me a different perspective.
