Friends | I am just me. scottd568r to montcalm: Hope all is well. Great seeing you in Reacher. 2 years ago • Report • Link 0 scottd568r: I saw this on a friend's page and thought it was awesome, so I wanted to share and pass it on to others. Enjoy: I was just out to lunch and saw this adorable older couple eating. I watched as a hamburger, fries and soda was delivered to their table. The old man cut the burger in half, divided the fries evenly and put 2 straws in the drink. He sat and watched as his wife ate her half. I couldn’t help but go over and offer to buy them another burger. “Oooh no” the gentleman replied. “We are used to sharing everything.” I asked why he hasn’t touched his food, to which he responded “I’m waiting for her to finish so I can use her teeth.” scottd568r: I find it funny how etiquette has become non-existent today, mainly because of social media and on-line interaction. Where in the past when someone is greeted with a 'Hello' , it was replied with another 'Hello' as a formal introduction. Today, it means none of that. It's shunned, repulsive and down right rude. I know many 'women' online have been perved or stalked, and become defensive and insulting to someoe that just want's to greet them. They think there is always a motive behind it. Too bad. For those few bad instances, to have ruined such common, innocent greeting, and make it into a gateway of bad behavior is a downfall in today's society. I will end my rant and hope you can reflect on it. I may just end up closing up here because its such a sad state of how we treat others here. XHuntressX: It goes beyond , Perved and stalked. I am not meaning this in regards to you, because you have always respected my boundaries....but some men...Do not respect those boundaries. You ask them to stop...and they don't. They continually push you for something you won't or cannot give them. Then when they finally grasp you mean exactly what you say...They resort to calling you names, attempting to trash your reputation to others, and even in some cases attempt to screw with your personal life...Off line. I agree....it is a sad state...because I am sure a lot of truly decent guys get lost in the hoards of Fuktardology that seems to exist on wire. Women point blank....do get tired of the feckery!!! Specially if we are only here to make friends hang out and have a good time. Almost every male ( Not all , but the majority) here only want to get into the Fems pants....so yeah...We get to feeling like we are playing a game of Whack a mole....Only sometimes I wanna bring out a flame thrower and light some of them up!!! Because it does get old. When you have had a few bad experiences...Your motto becomes better safe than sorry. I'd hate to see you go...but you need a thick skin to exist on wire....way to many different personality types and Jr High School attitudes. Their perception....doesn't define you! It's just their perception based off how they take in information. Eventually you'll meet the right person. Just got to wade through a sea of Jackbag first to meet them. Hang in there. Smartazzgal67 in reply to XHuntressX: Well said!!!! Scott has always been a true gentleman and very respectful but most aren't. avrageasian in reply to XHuntressX: Absolutely correct. Thanks for explaining it so well. I’m totally guarded and defensive on wire because of how I’ve been treated by people. If someone keeps poking you in the eye, eventually you just stop opening your eyes. It’s only natural. |
