Unprovoked negativity. Generally unpleasant messages with no prior contact.

What's with that?

I know, I know. Block and move on. I just don't quite understand the mentality behind it.

If you see someone that isn't to your tastes, do you feel the need to try and bring them down a peg?

Or do you prefer to live and let live in peace?

The negative things people are told are often the ones that stick in their heads and create brain goblin mayhem. That sucks.

Angry people, possibly hurting from rejection or thinking that someone is unattainable/out of their league. They turn that anger on others and lash out wherever they can.

It’s really not you.

It's very sad, toxic behaviour. It points to loneliness, insecurity and jealousy of all the guys they imagine you'd rather see than them. And when they make these emotions known to you, they just perpetuate their failure even more. But they're just desperate for any response from you really.
