Peoples Feelings Please - Have A Heart Think Before You Type

Its not hard to be the one to step up and be the bigger person, to have a heart. To think before you write about something that might hurt someone else`s feelings, or even damage their business opportunities. Whether done out of jealousy or not, it still can hurt feelings. Whether meant to harm a business or not, it might. Think about it being you and someone wrote something that hurt you in either way. Can you do without the money? Can you turn off your feelings, that you were intentionally targeted? Before you type, think.

Words can hurt more than anything. Once something has been said, we cannot take it back. You are so right, we should think before typing.

@andriaperry So true, sometimes we type without the intention to hurt, but we should pay attention.

I hope I have never hurt with my comments. Sometimes, I just get carried away with stuff. I don't like boring so I try to come up with something interesting. We all have enough boring in our lives. I try not to hurt anyone. Everyone has feelings and opinions.

Especially when you write something knowing it will hurt someone.

I would hope if I ever hurt someone that they would contact me through messages. I try to treat others the way I want to be treated.

@LovingMyBabies yes I feel the same way! I would feel so bad if I hurt someone's feelings. I would want to be called out on my rudeness you know. It is a way we can learn from our mistakes!

@andriaperry I definitely think before I speak offline and before I type online. I try hard to be a good example of Jesus for others and I hope someday to hear well done good and faithful servant.

Sometimes I think certain people are just not aware of how they sound - whether in person on in writing. It may not have been intentional, but still it's no excuse . . . when they've hurt someone, the damage is already done.

@andriaperry I'm sorry if it's something that happened to you recently. It's happened to me many a times (more in real life, not so much here).

@andriaperry Hey andria...I tease Pony and DE rotten. They can usually take it, so I feel I am in safe territory. I don't know about them, but I have fun and they actually seem to enjoy me troubling them. May be I am under some illusion.

I hope I have not been guilty of that. Some of us kid around a lot in these discussions. Those comments usually have a lot of lol or symbols to show it is al a joke. It is better to laugh than to cry.

I wish they did put in a little more thought.. some people always like to show they know better and play the one up game.. while at times it could happen unintentionally. I hope not to tread on any ones toes this year.. I know some have done that to me.. But I am resilient.

I hope I have not done that here to anyone. If I did it was unintentional. But when writing things it can be harder to convey a true message as there is no body language or at least the tone of voice to help you know the meaning. Maybe that is what happened.

There is an old saying that goes "If you do not have anything nice to say. Don't say it all." I have learned that words can hurt people and that is not right.

If anyone is hurting you I'll give them a few words to say! People are so rude sometimes. Unfortunately, since everyone is hidden behind a screen they become nasty. And then whine then someone confronts them about it. Trolls I tell you, trolls.

@andriaperry I know indirect messages all too well! Of course, I am guilty of them as well, but I'm very passive-aggressive. Not exactly healthy, but I hate confrontation but I also hate when people are not nice.

@andriaperry This is a very good post. Someone wrote a post and apparently I did not either read all of it or missed something and she was very rude in the way she responded to me. I am sorry if I have been rude in answering posts and sorry if I did not understand something but she did not have to be rude. She could have answered back better than she did. I did not see a post she made. I try to think before I answer a post and if do not understand something then ask I hope.

Usually the best thing to do is always think about things for a few days to see if your feelings change after you calm down.

@andriaperry oh no I kind of meant people in general like the ones leaving the reviews if they are upset about something they should wait a few days and see how they feel and think how to word it where it won't hurt someone. When I wrote you I didn't literally mean you at all more thinking of my own experiences.

Yes, thinking before you type is usually appreciated. Some people here think they can say whatever comes to mind whether it is mean, rude hateful or just uncalled for.

I know I'm guilty of writing things on here that have hurt peoples feelings. My intention was never primarily to hurt their feelings but I did know that that may be the result of what I wrote. Some things I'm sorry for some things not. Off mylot I know I've written things that may have hurt a business and I'm sorry for none of them as they were true and accurate reviews. When I do take the unusual opportunity to leave a bad review it has always been after contact with the business about my issue that I've felt has been ignored.
