To think that nasty and callous responses seem to have increased on MN recently?

[Tinytillytot]

On AIBU and relationships? Some of the responses have made me feel really down on behalf of the OP?

I've seen in the last couple of days:

One MNer advising they would NOT want their husband talking to a "depressed person" a few times a week (OP had depression and a close bond spanning a few years within ex colleague who had obv. become a great friend)

One MNer asking "FGS is this the 50s" when an obviously devastated woman asked expressed anger and disbelief at possibly (almost definitely cheating) Dh AND the OW

A woman angrily labelling a landlord with a dilemma greedy and immoral for not GIVING AWAY her house to a tenant unable to pay the rent

And just a general increase in the eye rolling, dismissive and cutting put downs to some generally hurt people reaching out for a bit of support?

It's as cold as a nuns t*t in MN world at the moment.

Funnily enough, OP, scraps on mn have been linked to the full moon before so maybe there is something in it.

My old teacher swore blind the children were more naughty when it was windy.

I've only been here a couple of years but it hasn't changed much in that time, to my eyes.

Lots of cunts around on AIBU, but that is what that board is renowned for.

Elsewhere (& I do venture to lots of other places on MN) I see amazing empathy & support.

And I have also heard the theory that children are naughtier/act up more when it's windy.
