Sensitive people on Fab

By *hubaysi OP Woman over a year ago

Leeds

Anyone else noticed how sensitive people are on Fab? Almost entitled! I made a little joke to someone I’ve been chatting to for a while and it was completely taken the wrong way!

If people can’t accept me for who and what I am they can take a running jump!

I've spoke with one girl a few times now. Chat is always good but I sometimes feel like she has a wee strop at something I say because she has taken it the wrong way. It's happened a few times.

It's like life, you meet some you click with and you meet some you dont. If I dont feel a vibe and the chat stops and starts and we arent on the same wavelength and they dont get my SOH and vice versa then we likely won't get on if we meet.

You'd think if they'd been chatting to you for a while they'd have caught on to your humour and be able to interpret it correctly?

I'll agree though. Too many sensitive people at the moment who are triggered by the most trivial of things.

There and to the left a bit

I think you get all sorts on here OP - those who can take a joke and a tease and those who are a little more sensitive too, it's just a reflection of life outside these four walls.

Of course it doesn't help that things can get lost in translation in a text format either, we've all had those moments where we read something one way to only later realise it was meant another.

A thick skin is required at times though, especially around the forums

When people appear over sensitive to us, we should remember we don't know what their life experiences have been.

A little joke or comment that we mean no harm by might trigger something that has been an issue for the person in the past.

If that happens then it doesn't mean we are bad people. It's just good to have a little patience and not immediately condemn people as 'too sensitive'.

So you made a joke that didn’t quite land and the other person was hurt by it, not it’s their fault and they can sod off..... or you could say “ohh sorry I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings I made a bad joke, can we still be friends” or summat like that.

Depends what the joke is. Rather than get angry and bitter that someone doesn’t find me funny I’ll take it on the chin and accept I went too far. It’s not up to me to decide what others should and shouldn’t find funny.

However, if I do accidentally upset someone and apologise and it’s not accepted, then there’s not much more I can do.

Accusing people of being too sensitive, much like calling people snowflakes is all too often actually a reaction to being held accountable for a comment or opinion that you've been called out on.

I too see the irony of an angry thread because someone dared disagree with the OP, and the defiant "I'll say what I want", it's not exactly a measured response is it

I tend to use the forums on something I feel I can contribute or get a better understanding of something I don’t know too much or nothing about.A few times I have been shot down so I tend to stop replying and quote.I don’t believe I am sensitive I have received some messages from forum user asking for more details about certain subjects.Hindsight is a great thing and if I feel I have said something that maybe wrong I send a message to that person as well as apologise on the forums.

Very much. I think most people are sensitive and liable to emotional reactivity, it's just that some parties are more prone to being labelled as such. It very much cuts both ways.

Sensitivity and consideration for others are also no bad thing.

Humour always runs the risk of offending, otherwise it wouldn't be humour. People have varied tastes in what they find funny, though i've found people who are very sensitive and / or have been through trauma have a narrower interpretation of what they call funny.

If you've spoken to someone for a while and they know and appreciate your humour, if you've offended them somehow it's only fair they tell you....after all, you're just engaging in something they've not had issue with before.

If both people are sensible an apology would be readily accepted and both carry on.

I agree Chill.

We don’t always know what might be a sensitivity for another person. As P said above we can’t dictate what is important to another person and generally we feel that emotional response over things that are deeply important to us. Current conditions are also more of a struggle for some than others too. Mutual apologies and forgiveness go a long way to healing wounds.

"Very sensitive.

I once replied to someone on here and didn’t put a “x”, he said my message came across rude because there was no x on the end! Outrageous!

I've had almost that exact text from my mother

Parental text howlers are totally a thing

"My goal is to be blocked by all the negative ppl on fab. It is hard work though. I will keep working hard to achieve my goal!

Do you need a hand?

You are full of positivity and charm! I can't have you blocking me, ever. Never ever!

My hand offer wasn’t for blocking you, but to help you though your hard work and achieve your goals with others

My goal is to flirt through all of fab. Lot to do in a short time!

That was short but I had fun

We seem to go from one extreme to the other here at present

Extremely sensitive over the smallest things and I’ve seen threads turn into unnecessary bun fights (as did Lorna’s - she didn’t deserve that)

Or people suddenly blowing smoke up the arses of those they have previously called f**k out of

I’m still astounded at times so that bit hasn’t changed

"Getting blocked is my biggest achievement on here

I wish a few did that to me than whining about seeing me flirting!

Even if you block someone you can still see their messages on forums...perhaps take the hint when loads of lasses say it’s cringey...life is a learning curve after all

Tough! Try learning to ignore some posts. It's a real life skill!

It’s creepy and annoying and I wasn’t the first to mention it and certainly wasn’t the last. It’s called listening to advice and taking on board criticism to improve oneself...

That is your perspective. I listen to people that matters.

Sadly it's not just fab it's society in general. These days you're frowned upon for,

Having an opinion

Pointing out things that are wrong

Having a sense of humour

Saying certain things

People get so offended and so easily these days. Do these care bears not realise that when you get offended, nothing actually happens to you or in general. Society has gone wet behind the ears massivepy for me.

And breath

"Anyone else noticed how sensitive people are on Fab? Almost entitled! I made a little joke to someone I’ve been chatting to for a while and it was completely taken the wrong way!

If people can’t accept me for who and what I am they can take a running jump!

This

Nothing to do with the OP, but it’s so annoying when someone apologises for ‘making you upset’

No. Don’t apologise for how I feel. Apologise for your actions "

Exactly this.

"I've been blocked by someone for not being a vegetarian and eating meat. Meh

You do suck penises right ?

Lol.. No, not my thing.. If anyone was going to come back (hmmm) on that comment, it would bet a year's wage it would be you..

No, she just wanted to block me and couldn't find a reason I think.

Am I that predictable ?! I need to change my tactics "

The sensitive F&B...?

Nah, you'd loose your fan base and I'd be blocked by more for causing a fab calamity.

I had a very similar conversation with a friend the other day...there are a lot of people that act like nobody is allowed to have an opinion on anything if it differs from their own. Yes, we all have different things that strike a chord with us, but we all need to understand that people can and do feel and think differently about things, and not be "offended" just because of someone's belief, even if you don't agree with it. That's life, we're all unique, and I for one think it would be pretty bloody boring if we were all the same.

Imagine being able to tell it how it is without your own partner publicly referring to you as a cunt though. Must surely be better to be that person?

I think some people mistake calls for accountability as sensitivity or being offended (for the sake of it). Communication goes both ways. Might the person have a point? Might you have work to do on yourself? Is there a way to express yourself that might be more productive?

Lashing out just pisses everyone off. Occasionally opponents have points worth considering. Writing them off as fragile solves nothing.
