I’m from a place in the UK where it’s common to put x at the end of a text, card etc

But even I find it really cringey when a poster puts an x at the end of their post .., I’m seeing it more and more on here.

But nobody is really getting worked up. I cringe yes because my SIL does it a lot. And yes she is uneducated, that is a fact. I dont analyse it so much. Why does every little thing so magnified on MN it is like a parallel universe here where people get upset over nothing. We are ALL judgey bitches, bitches Grin

I read an article about how judgemental we have all become and the cited Mumsnet and Reddit as classic examples of judgy behaviour online
So at least this thread proved it right Grin

I sometimes end my post in ‘x’ OP and I would take a big guess that I’m more educated and have a more mature profession than you. Soz bae x

Oh wow you love yourself hm? Come on then what is it?

One of my colleagues is notorious for this.
She’s so lovely and fairylike, bless her lol.

She will send internal emails which leave a trail but will never forget the x on the end.

We liaise with the NHS frequently, they get the kisses too.

I'm also immature and educated. I sometimes do a x at the end of a comment if it looks like the op (or a pp) is upset or having a hard time because "take care x" is a lot nicer than "take care."

People have waded in against the op because she's been so needlessly, and unintentionally hilariously, bitchy!

I'm immature and educated. Is this combination even possible?

I don't use 'x' on here, but couldn't give a flying doughnut hole if others do.

I'm still trying to get over the 'immature and uneducated' element of this post. OP, please do list your qualifications... I'd be exceptionally interested in this.

Furthermore, I find it incredibly insulting that you'd not even check your own grammar and punctuation before posting? Poor show.

Bell end.

I’m sure the op and her (small) following on here didn’t mean to be quite so condescending did they Hmm

I sometimes accidentally do it in texts to my boss. Now that is cringey.

DH once said 'love you' after a phone call to my mum, forgetting it wasn't one of the DDs. He really cringed after that.

Does it really matter?! People get so worked up about such ridiculous things in life. If only people cared so strongly about things that actually matter
