Are you nice offline?

I like to think I am, but like anyone I have my days where I'm pissy. I try to be the nicest I can be, but I know that there's times when I've probably said something a little to harshly to someone. So are you nice offline? If you've ever talked harshly to someone do you regret it later? Do you apologize? Have you talked harshly to someone at work, and gotten reported for it?

I like to think I am. I have been told that I am too nice sometimes. Someone actually called me a bleeding heart once, because I feel pain when others are hurt. I am sure I have been a little nasty at times, I think everyone has, and I have my breaking point, like everyone else. I think I am a very nice person but if you can manage to tick me off you better look out. I think if someone really gets it from me they must really deserve it because I am a very tolerant and understandable person. If I am ever mean to someone then they have done something where they deserve to mean to about.

I've felt bad when people have been hurt, emotional or physical. The funny thing is when my fiance has a hurt back, sore arm, or just plain sore I feel the same thing too, even if I didn't do it nearly as much as he. Then again there are times when we both work and are sore..., lol but I know what you mean. I'm too nice, I let people walk on me, and I know that's not good, I've been told that from my fiance alot!

Well, i believe all people are basically nice right? Sometimes, its our culture and the people around us that make us not nice or thei bad influence. but offline or personaly i am nice to people but when someone pisses me off i tend to get nasty also.hahahaha!

Yes culture can have something to do with it, either making some seem more angry or just what, I'm not sure. I am glad your nice and I agree I think most people are, of course everyone has their bad days or just have those days they get angry more. Getting pissed off is another story though, usually takes a bit provoking for that, doesn't it? lol. I know I've been that mad before, pissed off.

This is another really good discussion baby and I am sure that different people have different opinions when it comes to being nice offline,I am sure there are some people who try to be nice to everyone they meet,and even if someone is rude or mean to them,they still continue to be nice,and then I am sure that some people do not care about being nice,and if they want to be mean,they will be mean no matter if the person is mean or nice and I can understand both types of people,and I know everyone has bad days where nothing is going right,and everything is going wrong,and people just want to scream,and I know I have my share of those days,but I do try to be as nice as I possibly can to everyone I meet,unless they are rude,mean or piss me off, and then I will be mean or rude back to them,which I know is not the right thing to do,and when I am having a bad day,I will sometimes have trouble being nice to people and will often snap for no reason,even though I will say I am sorry for it later when I am calm,I love you with all my heart and soul,have a great day,good luck with all of your mylotting goals,and Happy Posting.

I think we are both the same way baby when it comes to getting angry and feeling sorry for it later and apologizing. I am glad we are that way, makes it easier to get along when we are angry! I love you with all of my heart and soul!

I certainly would like to think that I am. I know that there are days when I'm really in a bad mood and much more unpleasant than other days. I know I'm not perfect. But generally speaking, I'd like to think that I'm nice on and offline, most days. I do try not to be too unpleasant or ill-tempered with people.

Glad that you try not to be ill tempered with anyone but there are days when it seems like nothing's going right! I appreciate the response.

Hi there Some Cowgirl. I think i am fairly nice offline as i try to be polite and not upset people just for the sake of it. I am in general a diplomat, but i probably have my limit of trash that i can put up to, so after that is crossed... i probably stop being nice to the respective person. I did not have any problems at work, but then again, i only worked for 3 months and a half 2 summers ago. I am still a student so working can still wait in my case as i plan to finish my studies first. I do apologize if i get into a fight with someone and i realize it's my fault.

I think everyone tries to be nice and realize their faults, it's better to apologize then to let it be on your conscious.

I think i am nicer offline than online. It's really different when offline because i can get myself in physical trouble whenever i say something bad. Online, it is limitless. But i'm also nice online. In person, i'm a shy type of a person so i really don't confront much everybody.

I think I get what your saying, online you don't have to worry about it, you're nice but if someone gets you mad you don't worry about checking your temper because you can't get hurt.

That's good. I know some people can be mean online only to take their aggressions from offline out on someone.
