Guess we're at the rope's end of that one lmfao
I can get this point, I've been through some pretty awful relationships and sometimes the whole lovey-dovey "relationships fix everything" stuff just strikes a nerve. I don't know if it was just a mixture of him prefacing him being serious with stuffposting at the start of the thread or what but if he was trying to do real talk he forgeted it up pretty hard.
Telling someone to be careful and not to look for all the answers and set themselves up for failure is alright, but stuffting on their parade because you're a bitter jerk just really isn't a great thing to do. That's how PhantOS came off like to me and that's why people "ganged up" on him.
I mean I guess you can call me bitter. If I worked at a milling factory and got my arm caught in a machine and torn off I'd be pretty upset. If someone came to me and said "hey I'm considering working at the old Mill down the road but I kinda don't want to, any opinions" I'd probably lose my stuff just slightly. It's totally a different magnitude, I wasn't like crippled by a past relationship, I just lost a whole year of myself and that really hit close to home because I love myself a lot and I can't stand to see myself hurt ;(
Maybe I could've rephrased the first post differently than "Mills suck they cut your arm off, work at a restaurant instead" but the point really doesn't change, everyone just pressured me so hard just to elaborate on such a clear cut blunt statement.
Anyways the only people I ever piss off when talking about dating are aloveuals and people who think LDRs are real romantic relationships, so I can't lose any sleep over criticism
