I think i am going to give this a rest as i seem to upset people even though i am trying to help them, I dont force my opinions onto people. People dont have to take my advice do they. But yet I seem to put my foot in it. So people I have upset I apologise again!!! Have you tried helping anybody on here and upset them? Or others

I don't think the answer is to give up! Some people are blessed with the curse of honesty and directness. This combination usually doesn't go over well with people because everyone is use to things being sugar-coated. Do you and let others accept it or don't.

Listen my friend eveyone has a problem with a person that is honest, I am one of them I tell it the way it is and if they don't like it then that is on them. Just because the person gets mad or upset it still doesn't stop me from saying whatever it is on my mind and you should let it stop you either...The last time I checked we all have a right to an opinion and that is it...an opinion now they can take it or not that there choice.
Another thing If people get upset about what you have said then that is maybe you hit them with some real truth and they cannot take it.. some people cannot handle the truth if it jumped up and bit them on the butt. What I am trying to tell you keep doing what you like to do and don't let people discourage you from doing what you love because if you start than then sooner or later everybody will do it and you will stop doing everything that you love the most...Just keep going and most of all just be yourself no one can ever take that away from you..And I am being very honest with you!

(((HUG))) Congratulations! You are a true REBEL! You say things like you feel it and state your opinion as you see it! Take some self pride in being yourself! You can't live life worrying how people will always react to what you have to say! **( Hey! If you don't wake up with them in reality at the end of the day it really doesn't matter what they think of your opinion and views!)** Never apologize for being HONEST! If a person can't take the good with the bad reactions then they shouldn't ask the open questions! You are "Good People" in my book! Don't give up Q&A because some people are jerks!

Yeah, one person who sent me viscious e-mails claiming that I was causing her suicidal tendancies to devour her. Meh... I wasn't tiptoe-sensitive with the issue, because I think that groundless sensitivity lulls people into self-pity, which usually makes things worse. I did try to help her though, although ovbiously I didn't do a very good job :)
You can't hit the mark 100% of the time, actually you'd be doing pretty good if you got through to people 20% of the time. Some people who ask questions here only want answers that affirm their beliefs or mirror their own oppinion.

I don't think you should leave us...usually people who get upset by advice( that they are asking for) are hearing the truth and don't want to hear the truth...they want someone to co-sign their b***s**t....and that doesn't help anyone...there are alot of folks on here who will see a question that they may also have and tons of advice and answers to help them out...just because you fell off the bike jules, doesn't mean that you can't get back onto it and ride. ...Keep commin' back ...to this category and all the other ones too!!

Dont give up. Im a bit like you I see things in black or white and that is how I give advice, people using this site post questions to get answers from the public which is what your doing. If they want nice fluffy answers then they should state this with their question so you know to avoid that one. dead simple....

Don't let other people upset you. They just wish that they could have given the advice you gave first, it is just jealousy, ignore it. I enjoy myself here for a while everyday and those who don't approve of what i say have to just live with it. Make it their problem and not yours.::)))

I'm seldom on-line, and enjoy having a say by answering a few questions. I don't expect to create a revelation or expect people to adhere to my advice, such as it is. However Jules hang in there. Goodluck girl.

Just because you have an opinion that doesn't necessarily mean its wrong. Answer the questions you feel like answering and ask good questions, dont worry about everyone else.
