Fab Interaction v Real life Interaction
Jump to: Newest in thread
If a person or people block you on fab, argues or disagrees with you alot on the forum and you meet that said person or people at a social /meet and greet, will you interact or do you view that person as your mindset tells you from day 1? Reason for thread is in the past I have seen a few women say they have gotten on great with lads in person at socials who they havnt interacted with online/ignored/ blocked etc.. |

Do you get time at a social to remember half the profile names that people give you as you say hello.
I know if I'm blocked by someone on here and I was introduced to them at a social I'd chat as I find
Them
The reasons for being blocked could be many but it's nice to be polite

I've met people at group socials that I don't like for any number of reasons including their predatory behaviour but I don't engage with them and avoid all conversation.
My fab instincts haven't failed me yet so if it ain't broke..... |

"The majority on my block list are there for a good reason so no I wouldn't want to interact with the majority of them in real life either. "
How we see it too, don't feel we're missing out on anything |

I can't personally answer 1 part as I don't think I have anyone blocked. would I chat to a person who i disagreed with topics on the forum? of course. life is 2 short for petty little online squabbles. id chat to anyone, not saying I'd get on with everyone but there's always starting points. |

It's not about disagreement regarding forum topics, it's an assessment of the person's demeanour, attitudes, aggression levels and how they treat others that leads me to conclude they are not someone I need to waste any time on. Here ends my contribution to this thread  |

It's not always an online assessment though. Some are people I know through other events or socials and no matter how hard they try and pretend to be a nice person their forum interaction just highlights their cuntishness. |

Yep I agree with this and of course there is always those few who have been pretty rude in messages as well on my block list so why would I even think about giving them a second chance . |

I would be very happy to chat with anyone at a social event... even those who I have disagreed with strongly here in the forums. We could have a laugh about it. It's ok to have differing opinions. This idea that you can't get on with someone who isn't perfectly aligned with you is bullshit, and quite damaging socially. |

ye, I'm not really talking about people you know from other areas, I'm talking about giving a person a chance basically in person. I'd give most one opertunity unless their online comments were derogarty or disgusting beyond belief. |

I agree with this i don't have anyone blocked and like you say life is not worth holding resentments towards people behind a screen that i actually don't even know really. However i wouldn't play with a person/persons who i feel i just don't have a connection with i can be civil which i think doesn't cost much. Of course it actually all depends on the situation, i would always avoid conflict so if i felt that's what a person/persons were trying to inflict on me by god i definitely would totally avoid. I always mind myself first. |

I've said this before when you've mentioned this in a previous thread a while back, it would depend on why they're blocked or the type of attitude/opinions they've displayed. There are certainly those whose views I find abhorrent who I would never engage with, and people who have directed personal insults towards me. I'm not missing out on anything by not interacting with those people in person. Why on earth would I?
We'll happily be civil with people with different viewpoints which aren't extreme, or with those we've blocked for more mundane admin type reasons. |

Great point especially the socially damaging part essentially it's judging someone from behind a screen. As as we know the key board warriors or cowards in most cases are often quite different in person. Often people tend to forget we are all human and have been through so much in the last two years. I have seen some serious personality changes on here over the lockdowns. Best thing i ever did was leave and put my head down into books and not be a part of it. It can be heavy going at times so a break always works for me to find myself. |

In day to day life I would and do but here it's different I'm not on here to give everyone a chance (besides that I don't do socials). I'm looking for one particular thing and the choice is massive so selection can be quite crude.  |

entirely different topic but that's why i say alot of men would be better trying to meet women face to face. I know the last 2 years have been quiet difficult but alot of these sites are minefields for men if actively looking. |

I knew them first through fab. I met them through fab socials. I gave them one chance. They're still predators and nasty vindictive people. |

that's exactly what my OP entailed. giving a person a chance in person and not judging through a screen. like u said, that chance doesn't always work for the positive. ta 4 reply |

Personally I don't have anyone blocked yet although I'm pretty sure there are a few on here my personality wouldn't gel well with.
I am only aware of one person who has me blocked and to be honest I'd probably ask them why. We had no conversation ever so I'm assuming it's probably something I've said on here that they didn't agree with or something. It would be nice to know where I went wrong. But I definitely wouldn't be holding any ill feeling towards them. Socials are for fun |
