Who do you consider unaproachable on line?

Who's unapproachable online?

It's gotta' be Salma Hayek. I sent like, several thousand e-mails over the past year and a half, and do you know she hasn't replied once? NOT ONCE!!! After the authorities had their "little talk" with me, I thought maybe it was time to give up... ...but then I thought better of it, and knew she was just playing hard to get -- so I've redoubled my efforts, and started sending presents, primarily of small game animals dissected and tastefully arranged in lovely gift boxes with red bows. No woman can ignore a rended opossum diorama. I know she'll come around. 🙂

And you called ME disturbing. 🙄

Darnit -- you quoted me before I remembered "rent" was past tense of "rend" and edited my remarks! You've caught me in an ugly typo!

*packages the unsavory leftovers not fit for Ms. Hayek and addresses them to Slacker*

Who do you shy away from?
Basically everyone, but especially females because I'm afraid they'll think I'm creepy if I try talking to them )=

I don't worry about that, women are just people anyway. If they're too good to say hi then I'm clearly better than them. :>

I hate you all.

Bastard! That's MY line. I now hate you most of all. Hope you choke on a kitten!

Cavum: We've all been there. At least some of us have. Ok, so it depends since we aren't all socially graceful. But then maybe I can't say much anymore since I no longer really think of people online as people so much as I do me typing to myself. 😀

Now who do I find unapproachable? Honestly I can't think of anyone in particular. Usually it's either I don't care enough to bother approaching someone or they've got 80 billion friends and I think it'd be a waste of time (even if most of those friends are there just because or whatever). Or both. Or neither. Or each.

I refuse to approach anyone.

It's the smell, if there is such a thing. I feel saturated by it. I can taste your stink and every time I do, I fear that I've somehow been infected by it!

 

[Tamia78]

I hate you all. Apart from Tamia, Tamia is nice.

*In best Mr. Burn's voice* EEEEEEEEXCELLENT! My evil plan is working!

I don't find anyone to be unapproachable. There are many who I would like to get to know, but I'm not one to just go out and pm unless I have something to talk about.

As far as post counts go.....pfft! I don't see why something like that would make someone unapproachable.

You know this, and Venray's comment saying that "Mils is one of the most approachable members we have" got me thinking...

Wouldn't a high post count mean you are MORE approachable? I mean if you post a lot, clearly that has to be because you enjoy talking to people. At the same time though I guess the ones who DON'T post much are the ones who sit in the chatroom most of the time, and obviously they are very approachable too - but using different means.

Either way, no one here really makes a big deal out of post counts, so... If people who felt intimidated by that only realized as much, it would definitely be a non-issue.

Nice observation.🙂

Nor should they.All it means is,well,someone has a lot of posts.I do,and so what? Dosen't make me better then someone who has 12 posts,or 299,or no posts at all.

The second or third time Annie has been mentioned.I'll let you guys in on something.Beneath that tough exterior she seems to project is a big old marshmellow.

Really? Didn't notice. I didn't read the whole thread. 😀

Just remember,you didn't hear it from me.😉

Hear what? 😛

But seriously, ah.

Nevermind.

Good topic, but I don't consider anyone to be unapproachable. Should be an interesting show nonetheless.

 

[TklDuo-Ann]

I have a big serious problems because of childhood issues and they have started haunting me again these days.

This has generally been true for me as well. The past can play a big role in how comfortable I am in tring to get to know others. Often, I jus sit and let others come to me. In my case, I was pretty much conditioned to believe that I wasn't any good or worth anyone bothering with me. So, I never bothered making the attempt to reach out...even when I needed to. That's changed some over the last few years. But, that conditioning still makes me hold back a lot more than I'd like. This is especially true for people who are triggers in one way or another.

So, to answer the question of whether I find anyone unapproachable. Yeah, everyone....until I remind myself that my past conditioning was a lie. Then, I have no problem with anyone.

Cavum, as one who's struggled with the past for years, I feel your pain. I'm here if you ever want to talk.

I expected to be named quite a few times in this thread actually. It kinda sucks. When I first joined, I had a lot of troll-like qualities and I pissed a lot of people off.

And since then, while I am very opinionated, I have tried to tone it down. Looks like I still have some work to do.

Although I really am a nice person lol I swear.

That sucks. 🙁

I don't see it.

And since then, while I am very opinionated, I have tried to tone it down.

It ain't that. It's...sometimes silence makes a person's head wonder if they said something wrong.

Well, that's where I'm coming from.

Looks like I still have some work to do.

Don't change to appease. You're cool.

Sometimes I wonder about myself, about the online name I chose. It doesn't exactly scream, "HAI! I iz a friendly person!!"

But, whatev.

Guys usually think all the pretty ladies are unapproachable. It’s unfortunate that we come to realize our mistake after we’re too old for it to matter!

Yes,you are.You didn't pm me with a death threat or anything.😛

lol You have a pretty lenient definition of nice lol.

A very sad truth. I made that mistake a long time ago during the Golden Ages of my life because I didn't think I was good enough for her. Particularly sad since looking back I can see that I most likely had a VERY good shot with her. Growing old sucks more for things like that than anything else (well that and the old part <_<)

 

[Bugman]

No,not really.I just knows it when i sees it.🙂 I thought you and Jo were both unapproachable until i got to know you both.

i think gothfreakhell is very unaprochable he scares me i just cannot bring my self to approach my self tis so sad guess i have to work on the hehehhehhe o and venray is very scarry first time i met him i felt like i was talking to a lepercahn/mr noodle lol and o bugman is the scarryest of them all first time i met him i hert my neck from having to look up hehehehhe

 

[slap'n'ticklee]

I think it's easier to just list the people I feel I already know pretty well around here... THAT list is short! 😀 It would be Sanna, Skippy, K-Skate and LeeLee. lol

Ooo Carsy, I haven't known you long but you are one of the most welcoming I've encountered, even with your damned Swedish cheek 😉 Its a joy chatting with you, you sure are a bright light in a gloomy landscape, thankee bubba

I think there are some that I find unapproachable, for whatever reasons, but that could come of both ways with me coming off as cold, I don't know. I don't really approach people myself for fear of being rejected (I know at my age I should know better, but thats me and lack of confidence plays a big part and something I've battled with all my life).

I also am not that stupid in thinking that you have to get along with everyone, because you don't but I think we all want people to know the real you, worts and all and yep as a witch I sure do have those 😛

Are there those you would like to get to know but don't know where to begin?
Lots, but I don't for the reason described above.

Do people with high post counts or lots of friends intimidate you? Why?
Yeah... I think it's a jealousy thing. I wish I was the kind of person who always had something to say no matter what the topic and that people enjoyed conversing with... That's not really the case, though.

I hope you will visit this thread again,and realise that no one here is unapproachable unless you choose to make it so.🙂

You will win some and lose some as we all do.Give it a try.I suspect you will be pleasantly suprised.It's not necessary that you have something to say on every topic posted.Post in threads that intrest you,and start threads on things you are intrested in.

We don't know you are here,and have a chance to get too know you if you stay silent.
