You've been here long enough to know your thread will get filled with the usual types saying see ya and generally slagging you off.

The world is full of those types. Hope you feel better. x

Rage Quit! Sorry to hear that Come back with a thicker skin next time.

I just read something pretty horrendous in one of the racism posts.. but you have to learn to put up with views and comments you don't like, confront those who attack personally or ignore them. Or destroy them and get Fab to Rage Quit you on your behalf

Sorry to see you go, hope things are better for you on the other side.

But I am curious why you didn’t just delete the profile. Why start a thread and alter your entire profile first?

Sadly not everyone is nice. Focus on the people who are decent folk, and fuck the rest of them. They don't matter.

It seems thatyou’re confused as to how this works, here’s the proper way to exit social media:

Step 1: Delete or deactivate your social media profile.

Step 2: Delete the app from your phone, and bookmarks from your computer.

Step 3: Stay off of the social media platform you claim you’re quitting.

Step 4: Live your life.

Step 5: Stay gone. For real. You said you were leaving, so stop reading this.

Anything else just reeks of narcissism and attention-seeking. Declaring intention on a public forum particularly so.

What if.. for debates sake.. I chose to tell all my Facebook friends I was leaving in two weeks time. That if they'd like to stay in touch, to give me their numbers and I'll stay in contact via WhatsApp.

But it was a ruse. My intention being to whittle away all the people who no longer follow me, to cull the collective who've added me in the past but decided to unfollow my posts.

Because.. I did that recently and went from 600 friends.. to about 30.

I did it because I've been let down by many of them. Hardly any were there for me when my marriage broke down. 10% of the 30 who are left bothered to send me a message when I was quite visibly suffering a minor bout of depression (Not clinical) and misery.

Is this narcacissm? If it is, I'll accept that, I guess I have some "Look at me tendancies" Otherwise I'd not be on the Forums at all, definately not so prolific.

I'd say part of that is attention seeking to try and attract the type of women who may like my brain for what it is, or to look at my profile to see if I may be worth a bonk. Some of its the fact I like helping people who are confused, undecided, unsure about their own views. Part of its social, as I don't know many people local to me as im not from here, I also work A LOT and it's not easy joining a club of any kind. Part of its therapeutic.. I've an active mind and it helps me when I write down my thoughts, helps more when someone stops and interacts with my thoughts.

I'll take narcacissm reluctantly without argument, I hope it's not the case though

"Fed up with certain personal comments you get on here, last posting, shutting down the profile"

Sometimes it makes sense to walk away. But don't just walk out of the door.

Sometimes we have to change things for our own benefit not the benefit of others..

Sometimes it makes sense to throw it all in the air and start again.

But OP "here be dragons." They come in many forms many are angry sad lost unhappy or have other issues in their lives. Some vent those issues in public or private by attacking anyone who is in the line of fire often with no logic at all behind their comments. We don't have to say the dragons just avoiding them is often enough.

You are not the first here recently to either go or threaten to go. But the fact that so many are leaving the forums and fab should make us all question why and what part our own interactions with others contribute to the losing of so many forumites....

Whatever your choice OP I wish you good luck

That you've carried this over to your own circumstance does display an extent of narcissism, that's not to say that there isn't a degree of such to anyone posting in the forums though, myself included. And is no way meant in any derogatory way.

Your example is an interesting one, and also highlights how differently people use platforms such as facebook, particularly when at a point of emotional need.

Did you consider that people who may care about you may simply have not read that particular post? A lot of people read feeds irregularly, and don't check in on people on an individual basis.

You may have culled people who were busy at work, with friends, not online for some reason at the time for seeming not to care. The times that we feel the need to shout the loudest are not necessarily the times that the people who would listen are around.

As to the marital break-up, well people can find it hard to know how to respond to such things (I didn't see your posts obs, I don't know how they were written). Sometimes it feels easier to respond with silence rather than to risk saying the wrong thing.

Facebook I feel is best kept to those who you actually hug and tell this shit to in real life, or would were they not distanced from you in some way. Either that or just stick to posting pictures of your dinner.

A couple of points :

1) It’s just pixels on a screen, don’t let random strangers on an Internet sex forum dictate your happiness and well being! Let things wash over you!

2) Before rage-quitting (which invariably is quickly followed the next day by regret and remorse and usually an instant rejoin), maybe hide your profile for a bit, log off for a few days, and then if you STILL feel the same way, then delete your profile!

Seriously, Fab should be fun! Like they say on the gambling ads, if the fun stops, stop!

That comment caused me to rant on the forum as it was so offensive and unnecessary.

Or maybe I posted so I could get someone to look at my profile and shag me. Who knows?

I'd agree with pretty much everything you said.

Bit about irregularity is right.. but I had considered it.. it's over the course of many years.. not one.

I think I have some "Look at me" Charecteristics - Thanks for having the guts to point it out After id asked.

I'll try to keep a lid on that as best I can I'm not like this in person I hope Wouldn't go round a club commenting on everyone's conversations Forum kind of asks you to a bit.

Anyway.. I'm taking over a thread so I'll shut up and back off

I hope you come back OP... Being a little narcissistic isn't the end of the World "There be Dragons" Was a brilliant phrase.. get some fire proof armour on and get cracking talking to the dwarves, Goblins, wizards and elves.
