Seen a status update about ppl thinking theyre something special on here

Why do folk on here crack on at you for having a bit of self confidence?! Theres so many shaming threads and comments on here. It can be hard to be happy with yourself. So why add to that?

Whats the remedy here folks?

I'm not special. I'm just unique.

Just like everyone else.

Sadly I'm not sure there is one - there will always be those that bandy phrases like that about because they are butt hurt by rejection, there will always be those that *do* think they're somehow special, those whose idea of inclusiveness is within their own circle and more besides.

Know that's not an answer and nor should it be - but sadly in an environment where you have disparate people coming together on one web page it will always be the case - have seen it in most internet forums and not just ones relating to swinging, for almost 20 years now and really can't see it changing.

All you can do is grow a thick skin and focus on your own use and enjoyment of the site whilst trying to remain respectful and considerate of others.

I think you might have hit it on the head there by saying people are scared of confidence.

Weak ego's and weak minds cannot handle rejection or even a polite no. They think the world owes them something, like we all need to get in line and listen to what they have to say.

Personally, im a fan of confidence. I like strong, smart and independent people in general. I especially like these qualities in women but, as the paradox goes, independent women, do not need me as much as i need them

As for the nasty threads who are 'just asking' but really making a statement, well their IQ not need much discussion lol

I do think, in the UK at least, that we are culturally disposed to enjoy a bit of negativity

Watch the threads in these very forums

The ones asking for things we dislike fill up way quicker than the ones asking for things we like

Knocking down the overly confident is a national pastime

It is my opinion that this type of status are from individuals that lack the skills/ability to get themselves a shag And it’s probably due to frustration , envy , jealousy, and possibly some arrogance thrown in too .

I’d let them wallow in their misery myself

Fine line between confidence and arrogance. Nothing wrong with confidence at all, it should be encouraged.

Arrogant people are wankers tho tbh.

I’m the complete opposite. I don’t have self confidence anymore. Trying my upmost to find it though.

Maybe it could be because other people think and tell others that they have a weak mind, weak egos and are butt hurt about rejection and are therefore inferior human beings. Maybe that confirms their own self perception and that fuels their self-loathing,causing them to feel worse about themselves so they lash out. I find it hard to esteem myself if I am not esteemed by others.

Oh and the remedy?

Self acceptance, being able to sleep at night knowing you're not a bad cunt.

Know you're own worth.

Spread positivity where you can, be compassionate (but also forthright and strong in your convictions), and ask yourself if it's really worth engaging in the bad stuff.

They’re usually the first ones to tell you how gorgeous/amazing/sexy/beautiful you are. The minute you agree with them they get annoyed

I am uber confident and I stick to treating others how I would like to be treated myself, kindness spreads if they want to hear it, if they don't then just walk away, can't please all the people all the time

I hate that too OP. Put it down to jealousy. I have a lot of friends and we all praise eachother daily. It's amazing being around people who boost you and cheer you on rather than pick holes in things they haven't got or can't do.

What if your friends didn't explicitly praise you?

Years ago I was a quiet shy person not really confident, but due to a breakdown in my marriage I hit rock bottom, nearly commited suicude, I couldn't have hit any lower down, it felt like I was crawling the gutters, with the support from talking to a counselling service, I bounced back out of the gutter, but I didnt stop where I was originally, I continued to bounce, that's when Samantha came out of her shell, she started going out for walks at night times til one night, a car pulled up alongside me a a male and woman asked if they could chat with me, so they pulled in to the side road, which happened to be where I lived, and they asked me questions, soon found out that they thought that I was a prostitute looking for business, when they asked for my name and address, that's when they showed me the warrant cards, 2 plain clothed police officers, so I gave them my real name, the male officer was gob-smacked, just stood there my mouth ajar, the wpc said it's not fair, she said that I have a better figure, walks in higher high heels than her, lovely make up, so I invited her round at some time, well I was so surprised that they considered me a woman because it was a cctv operator who had been watching me go for my walk which was about 2 miles in 4 inch high heel knee high block high heel boots and mini skirt and top, my confidence took a massive boost that night, since then I help other tgirls come out their shells, taking them to tgirl friendly bars and clubs and hotels etc and they are all slightly nervous at first, but as soon as they see how relaxed that I am, they soon start to relax and enjoy the night out.

Then I was asked to do a make over for a newly found transvestite, she came round, got changed and then I did my bit in her transformation, she was so surprised in her new look, she asked for the list of products I used and asked about the techniques, soon I was getting more tgirls asking me to do their make up, other girls ask where do I get my heels and outfits because they go together so well. Makes me feel as if I am doing something right, which gives me a bigger boost in confidence.

There is nothing so off putting as a negative person.

Look the other way and enjoy the better vibes.

Life's too short to be affected by other people's poison.

It really comes down to if you are a person who likes brutal honesty or you want people to blow smoke up your ass.....

Example:

If you put I’m only looking for gym fit , white/black/asian people age 20-40 in your profile... someone will think you’re up your own ass... but in reality you are saving their time and yours.....

Exactly this

I am aware that my profile is demanding but those “specifics” are what floats my boat .

Still most of my mailers , despite professing having read and found my profile interesting , are skinny 5’4 guys living in Glasgow that cannot accommodate, only looking for daytime weekday fun and don’t enclose a face photo

I’m not saying that I “deserve” a 6’3 local hunks but that’s what I want and I’m happy to wait for them and abstain from Fab meets until I catch their attention .

After all if we want “randoms” .... in normal times a night out on the town would sort that out ...
