I think at the beginning, it was important to me how i was perceived by others.... because at that stage it was a case of trying to fit in.........new bunch of people, new surroundings and atmosphere
but times have changes and and so have I.... to be honest now I couldn't really give a fig what people think of me (in the nicest way of course).... if they like me and find me interesting then that is cool and fine by me, it not.... then such is life and you are not going to be able to please everybody all the time......
everything is now like water off a ducks back, same attitude with work, if i get into heated disscuuions with people.... the computer goes off... I switch off, end of........
All i can do is be the best me i can, and only 2 people know if i am doing that, me and the person upstairs......... if that aint enough for some people.... or if that rubs people up the wrong way.... then tough!!!!

Couldn't have put it better myself.
I know there are people on the forum who don't like me, and I really don't give a shit. To be honest, they are mostly people who tend to make me grit my teeth anyway, and I'm certainly not going to lose any sleep over the fact that they disapprove. You can't please everyone all the time, so just be you, and you will always find people who appreciate you for who you are.

I totally agree with both these posts.
I know there are people on the site who won't talk to us because we don't swing and I'm sure there's folks who hate my stupid, childish sense of humour, or the fact I take little seriously and when I do I can sometomes sound a bit preachy.. There's also people I wouldn't associate with at all due to their extreme views or because I dislike their personality.
They don't talk to me and as a result, I don't talk to them. Maybe we could find some common ground at some point, but hey, life's far too short, both IRL and on-line.
People wont talk to you because you dont swing?!?!?!? :shock: :shock: :shock: FFS!.... How childish! rolleyes
Easy I love your sense of humour :inlove: kiss

bloke how was the dictionary for breakfast biggrin
only kidding good post

I try my best Tan wink Just off to the Metrocentre - do you want anything from Ann Summers? :rascal:
Yes - you can get me one of those little black and shocking pink suede cat-tail whips :wink:
(I expect it gift-wrapped and tied with a neat little bow)
Done :wink: WTF is the onion all about dunno
It's the second way PL can make a grown man cry!
People's perceptions of others on the site are usually wrong until you've met 'em and even then they are not reliable. How many times does one hear at munches "Oh my God - you're nothing like I thought you were!"
That said some poeple post in line with their characters and others don't. I remember being greeted once with "You post younger than you are", which translates to "Yer an old bastard aren't ya!"
Generally speaking I reckon a proportion think I'm a plonker; a proportion think I'm OK and the rest think 'Who the fluck's he then?'
The Plonker/OK ratio is a function of how much of a plonker you really are or aren't. The 'Who the fluck's he/she?' measure is in inverse proportion to how much of a post whore you are.

"We also tend to see the world as we are, not as it is.... i.e. if we're sad, down and negative, we'll usually actively look for and usually find the same in others... if we're loud, happy and generally feeling good about ourselves, we'll likely see the same in others. I guess that's why some of us tend to surround ourselves with people similar to ourselves :P"
I would disagree there bloke, I'm a very upbeat person and if I get down, which is rare............................I prefer to be around people that are happy, or I like to be by myself and hide for a day. If I'm happy and find that people that I'm close too or work collegues, I will try and make them laugh or smile at least. The smallest of kindness or a smile is more to someone than wanting to be around people with the same negative attitude.......... rolleyes now have I said this right lol
As for the metro centre............can I have the same as PL wink

Thank you biggrin
And yes......I am a Dollop, as well as Dleprosy of Yamworth, Diep, Johnny Dlep, Delp, Dleppy, Pled....the list is endless rolleyes
lol
I still think of you as Plum wink
I've no idea how people see me on here and to be honest I don't really care. I'm just me, what you see is what you get, take me or leave me. The people I've met either like me or they don't and that's their choice. Some people have their own opinion of what they THINK I'm like before they meet me and that's their choice too. What they do about those perceptions of me is entirely up to them.

As for me thinking about you Sassy-Seren....what little I know about you is that you're a lil Welsh Sexpot :inlove: And you have a sense of humour like mine.....it's " :twisted: "
All good really :thumbup:
:lol:
have to agree fabs it up to your self how are what you do (we allways found you a great guy) people should never jude others as people live there life the way best for them and like your self we have taken the step if we get in to heated disscuuions are emails we do the same switch off sit back and think what the fib lol
It must be me, but I could have sworn I posted on this thread :shock:
Andy having spoken to you in chat rooms and met you in person (at a social I hasten to add) I have always found you to be a true gentleman (damn it). Like most other people I really don't much care how others percieve me, lifes too short and you cant really tell from typing. But the thing that intrigues me is that I'm often told I'm scary!!!!! People can figure that from a few lines of text in a profile? Amazing!!!!
Mind you I am normally the one in chat rooms being sarky when a twatish comment is made in the room. Can't help it ... it's just meeeeee. Mind you perhaps over 30 years in my previous career has shaped the way I react more than anything else. But as I tell people I'm really just a pussy cat at heart
:bounce: :happy: :high-smile: :twisted:
cant delete it all
:twisted:
But this is better than having 3 posts the same ... thanks SH for proving that Im a tech nerd :shock:

i dread to think how people see me lol
However its very hard sometimes to know how to take people in the chat rooms as you can't really put emotion into font so very easy to be taken the wrong way!

Just a perv like me nn biggrin
I am what I am
I am my own special creation.
So come take a look,
Give me the hook or the ovation.
It's my world that I want to take a little pride in,
My world, and it's not a place I have to hide in.
Life's not worth a damn,
'Til you can say, "Hey world, I am what I am."
I am what I am,
I don't want praise, I don't want pity.
I bang my own drum,
Some think it's noise, I think it's pretty.
And so what, if I love each feather and each spangle,
Why not try to see things from a diff'rent angle?
Your life is a sham 'til you can shout out loud
I am what I am!
I am what I am
And what I am needs no excuses.
I deal my own deck
Sometimes the ace, sometimes the deuces.
There's one life, and there's no return and no deposit;
One life, so it's time to open up your closet.
Life's not worth a damn 'til you can say,
"Hey world, I am what I am!"

Well we know that there are people around all the places we visit who don't like us (or more correctly me - cos I do all the posting - long story but there are valid reasons for that).
Basically we just ignore them.. the people who don't like us, are people we wouldn't want to be with anyways... it is a chemistry thing and isn't worth getting upset about.
We try not to offend, and are here for fun, and just would like others to see it that way as well

No stutter creampie ... just sh up to its usual tricks. Must remember not to post when sh is having a hissy fit in future.

You are quite right MandH... fun is the name of the game after all, some people are hell bent on causing trouble, some are hell bent on sticking together. At the end of the day, if someone doesn't like your face or who you are it's their look out not ours so let them get on with it! i think there is abs. no chance of changing peoples views so why bother trying! rolleyes
