On mylot discussion and comments, do you always share your true feelings?

Why would you not show your true feelings? The whole point of MyLot is to share opinions on various matters. I actually enjoy when people have a different opinion than myself. It's interesting to see everyone's reason(s) for their own particular viewpoint. HOWEVER, that is not to say that someone has the right to be cruel to other people. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion; just because yours is different doesn't give you the right to "run off at the mouth". Reign yourself in, be honest, but be adults, and most importantly, be human and show courtesy.

citychic, my answer is definitely yes. I look forward to coming here and sharing my thoughts and answering interestiing questions that I might not talk to my friends about. and I believe that's what the creators of mylot want. they tell us to come up with interesting questions and our answers should be thoughtful and detailed. I have five kids and I don't talk to adults most of the day so it's nice to be able to expand my mind and share with others.

When i am responding to a discussion here on my lot it is from the heart, and they are my opinions on all the different comments that i leave.

I say what I feel but I still have to have some restraint there have many times where I want to say something but thanks to the mylot censors I cant I hate sugar coating things especially when someone is being a rotten trollish twit

Yeah, If you had checked my recent discussion, I got so depressed that another user accused me of something am not. I showed my feeling of depressed,pin and hurt. thanks to a lot of users who comforted me, my anger had somehow subsided. there's still taint of pain, but am a bit okay now.

Hi Citichic I tell it like it is for me its easier to do it that way then to try and think of a way to sugar coat things. Now by saying that I don't mean that I try to intentially hurt anyone's feelings but I tend to tell it the way I see it I think most people appreciate the honesty rather than someone beating around the bush. If I don't agree with something I say so If I do agree with it I say that as well. I really like MYLOT because there are so many topics and discussions to me the sky is the limit there are so many things to talk about and so many people that can relate to one another regarding the wide variety of topics and I do like that there are people from all over the world from different cultures,beliefs,ideas and opinions, A lot of times people are posting topics seeking advice or sharing an experience they had and want some feedback,theres recipe sharing ,the list is endless:o)I would imagine that sometimes things can get hairy when someone posts something that is their "true feeling" as you put it and some might take offense but that goes with the territory I figure as long as its not obnoxious or insulting it should be ok.

i have no reasons not to share my true thoughts here with you on mylot.if i didn't mean it ,i wouldn't bother to say it.just say the things that are on your mind,just pouring it out makes you feel so good.everyone is carrying something in his mind,if he didn't share,he wouldn't be able to go far.we share,we show our care,we offer help mentally,i think this is the best thing about being here.

yes. i think everything i said is very truth. that is why many arrogant people here cant handle it and act weird about reading or hearing the truth. they just want others here to agree with their side of whatever it is they are talking about.

Why dont share your true feelings when you give your comments or repsond to others'discussions?I wouldnt say a word if I have nothing to share.

Yup.. I'm a straight shooter. But for the sake of being able to post... I often have to censor myself.. lol

I tend to say my true feelings about the discussions on what ever the topic is as that way the other person reading it tends to get the whole story rather than just half of it therefore they find it easier to reply to as well as give their own opinion to the whole of what the topic is rather than just a part of it.

I always share my true feelings in all the comments and discussions. I believe that even if this is the internet, this is also a record of our lives. This is our chance to present ourselves truthfully. This is who we are. One day, when a summation is possible, our experiences here could compose the history of the times. Had we been pretentious, then the accounts about how we lived will not be credible.

I try to voice my opinions in a response to someone's discussion. But truthfully, I sometimes have to hold back some bad words because of the Censors if I don't agree with another member's opinion or viewpoint. I try to be nice on Mylot and let my ideas show.

I do share my true feelings on MyLot. People are asking for opinions, so I give them the feedback that they need - no need to make up any stories. However, I do tend to hold back if there are too many details to my side of things . . . otherwise I will go on and on.

Citychic, I always make it a point to be honest and true with my responses here. It is just being me, however, I will always check my words in the responses before hitting that post button. I feel that everyone here have well and good intentions here, but due to our lack of eloquence or choice of words, we are often mistakenly perceived. Yet, however cautious and well intended I may be, I can be quite taken for otherwise. So, you will find me ready to leave the discussion as it is and let everyone move on. Explaining and trying hard to convince the hot headed party never works. Like the saying goes: "The best time to stop an argument is before it starts", so you can find me ever ready to move on. We just do not need to live base on one issue, as there are a whole lot of issues waiting for us out there. Take care and do have a nice day ahead.

Mylot is something I can actually express my true feelings in. You are anonymous yet heard. There are a lot of things you can't tell people in real life but I know this is definitely a place I can express my views without any problems later.

Yup! My friend. If I write to share my opinion here. I focus myself and all what I say is full of feelings. Because writing a words is a sort of telling things what is in our minds. A words that will intensify the clarity of arguments and define the sensitivity of though. If sharing a though without any feelings. We can only just defame the important of our personality. Because our views is a reflection of our sincere participation in what the writers wants to deliver. have a nice day! Nice to talk to you again

The err drawback perhaps of fast typing is that whatever comes into my mind goes onto the computer screen, and therefore onto mylot (though I do edit things to make sure they make sense to other people lol). I have habit of always being brutally honest on-line and will always share my feelings. I really have come to appreciate the side of mylot that means other people will do the same thing as well. It is nice to know that things that are being said are honest, especially since I do tend to accept things without questioning unless I have a good reason to be suspicious! That said I am also quite a paranoid person so if I were to lie I would worry about losing a friendship because of it further down the line, so to save myself those troubles I just be honest now :) I am curious though: Has being on mylot made it easier for you to share your true feelings? Do you think it will become easier as time goes on? Just curious after reading your comments, you don't have to answer :) All the best and happy mylotting, Dranz
