we've got to get back to being miserable 😬
Well, damn, that’s a reality check right there—it's not really a flaw if it's out of your hands 😁
| copperfox22 says: No way, I've been blaming those damn kids this whole time, when really the issue is right here in my own head...😬 What did you put in my wine? Some weird concoction you tried to pass off to me> 🙂 Seriously, there's no such thing as perfection😍> |
cosmictinker21 said:haha, look, if the question is whether I’m going to get blocked in the next thread, I was just answering the question. No, they aren't blocking me, and I have my reasons for thinking they won't. Besides, I'm not even remotely annoyed... well, maybe a little bit when it comes to sweet romance and stuff like that... 😍😍😍😉

Walter Peterson said:What do you mean, "barking up the wrong tree"?! 😕
Walter Peterson said:The only logical conclusion is that there is no logic. We are all sitting here attempting to be rational, dissecting everything because it’s impossible to grasp how such a vital aspect of life can remain entirely outside our control—especially when one feels they've earned happiness in that department. The universe isn't inherently fair. I will reiterate my previous point: luck plays a role. There is endless evidence that misfortune strikes even the most unlikely people. In fact, I was quite pleased today after reading a story on Reddit about a woman who finally found "The One" and is truly happy after years of searching. 🙂

We see decent, polite people getting steamrolled far too often. Evil is more than just a nuisance.
She stood her ground, and honestly, she should feel good about it. It’s a natural reaction—it shows she actually has a backbone.
If more people reacted with that kind of decisiveness, we’d see a lot less of the usual nonsense—the bullying, the workplace harassment, and the constant tearing people down.
Jerry Martinez5 said:People who reacted like the OP end up in jail or a psych ward. Honestly, I hope she manages to avoid that. Usually, people see the light for the first time, even if the case actually goes to court.
No, bosses don't physically beat their employees. Sure, bosses harass employees in all sorts of ways and work them into the ground, but proving that in court is nearly impossible.
People who reacted like the OP failed to protect themselves. You need to defend yourself without resorting to violence. I get her frustration. But if you respond to frustration with violence, you're headed for jail or a mental institution. Sorry.
It's natural for people on this forum to have different views. But not about this. There is no excuse for physical violence. Okay, maybe there is: if the guy had hit her baby, I'd understand her hitting him back. I think even a judge would see it that way when deciding the sentence.
