"Out of the ashes of recent topics , returning after a few years away , there seems to be less acceptance of people’s foibles and difference ,but I have noticed a huge amount of arrogance , from people who,shall we say would , I beleive never presume to be so in real life situations, is it too many men to choose from or am I just getting old " Are you interpreting assertiveness as arrogance? | |||

Therebis a fine line between arrogance and assertiveness. Some people cross the line regularly and deliberately, but on the other hand some people take offence way too easily. If we try and make our comments thinking how it could be perceived and interpret others comments with graciousness and a realisation that the written word doesn't convey certain nuances that the writer intended then the forum might be a less intimidating space for some. | |||

Many people will be different in real life situations as you can see their faces when they are speaking, body language speaks volumes also, with messages, forum posts or even in chat it's very difficult when you don't actually know that person how to take what's been said. So in reply to your post, yeah, maybe you are just getting old  | |||

Rudeness is easier to spot in the forums and through messaging just like constant attempts at belittling others for personal amusement . Loads of opinionated people on the forums which is great for debates and thankfully only 2 or 3 rude people who deliberately set out to disrupt every thread whether serious topic or fun subject. In my opinion of course. | |||

Do you honestly think you matter that much to people on here? I think that's a little arrogant.
I know we've had a different opinion on some things but seriously get off your high horse if you actually think i have nothing better to do with my time than "bait" you. I'm sure other posters are the same, that's not the reason tahg they are on here. | |||

"I was away on holiday with my bf. We were having a nosy on fab and a guy messaged me from a mile away asking me to go to his hotel to fuck him (opening message). Didnt reply and i kid not, 2 mins later I get a message saying..."Well fuck you you arrogant bitch. You're nothing fucking special anyway!" Pardon me for not dropping knickers immediately and running round to service you!!! Well I thought he was well cheeky. Arrogant not assertive lol" Yes I get messages regularly that are one liners followed up as soon as I’ve read them and not responded with a message similar to one you have said above. This isn’t arrogance this is angry wee man syndrome as I call it. I get it is tougher for guys on here - purely a numbers game but there are other sites and indeed real life where the weighting isn’t as uneven. So perhaps the angry wee man needs to be booted off. It would be much easier to be polite and not arrogant (if that’s how it’s interpretated) if downright nasty and rude messages weren’t sent at all. Perhaps arrogance is being bred on here. Or maybe we are all just becoming a little more arrogant as a society as sense of entitlement grows - perhaps exponentially. So maybe it is an age thing OP You are meeting the generation of entitlement | |||

So maybe it is an age thing OP You are meeting the generation of entitlement " The two previous messages from yourself and TGP , I beleive , don’t relate to Arrogance , definitely Rude and from downright bad fucking manners , I’d seldom drop everything in such a short window for someone I really liked never mind a complete stranger, where you get people making the best of something you’ll always get a few making the worst of things sadly . However I do agree with the entitlement issue , probably mainly down to the idiot young parents of my generation,too many were never told No at all ,never mind No AND an explanation as to why ,... and don’t you dare assume am getting old , only 55 and the mind and body of an unfit 54yr old , hmmmph , the Lady Doth most Offend | |||

However rude or arrogant I think someone was id never allow myself to be sucked into into it and would choose to ignore them or simply block and they are gone  | |||
