Some lovely people on MN.
However… I have been following a few threads tonight and I’ve noticed how unkind some people can be.
”My trauma was worse than yours so stop complaining.”
”Sarcastic or passive aggressive replies.”
Surely people are not this unkind in daily life.
Why do people feel they can speak to people so differently when they are not face to face? There is literally a whole load of people who lack empathy and common decency.
An OP is obviously upset/bothered enough to vent or ask for advice but the way some people reply is awful.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion and to offer advice. People need to hear opinions vastly different to theres, it’s how we learn and grown as humans. Do people need to be so vile in their replies telling people to get over themselves, their failing, etc. There is given advice and there’s just belittling people, being rude and making an OP feel worse about themselves.
AIBU to expect MNs to be able give advice, even if it’s not what the OP wants to hear, without insulting the OP?
