Do you feel like you get misunderstood by people (online) when you pose a question or just feel like ranting on an issue? I think you can state an opinion without giving advice for help.

Do you think that regardless of how much you don't want and didn't ask for advice people are just going to assume the issue happened to you personally (for people who ask questions) and offer it anyway?

Like I get it, it's the internet, but I think it's obvious when people directly ask for opinions/advice to the people who just want to talk about the issue just to talk about it. Not everyone is asking for advice, there's a big difference in offering advice to answering a random thought.

Not only misunderstood but often judged as well.

People need to stop jumping to conclusions, if they're thinking something but are unsure it never hurts to ask.

Hi Sugar Bean ....Yeah, it happens cause it's natural for people to want to help...Here comes that unwanted advice, but I'm going to call it a thought ...Preface your OP with a short sentence telling peeps what you're going for...Be it advice, opin, or both....This is just a thought Audrey!!

why what have you herd? there all lies i tell ya....

I'm not a hor, but I am a freak come and let's meet in the middle

I always say "sorry just ranting here" I think people would get the point, but they don't. It's just funny to me when they can't tell the difference. I feel like people always have a need to tell others how they should live their lives whether they want to hear advice or not. Sometimes people just want to be heard and to know that we exist in the world. I've seen it happen with friends often.

Well if someone wants to put a personal rant online then it's going to get judged and taken apart. Especially when it comes to relationships because most people think they give the best advice because they feel like they look at all sides of the issue. Not always true. Some people just want to rant, let them rant. If they ask people what they think, then we have the justification to add our takes on what they would personally do. It sucks how much people just make every issue about them when it has nothing to do with them. I think when people up and rant they are just looking for comforting encouragement, not judgements.

It does suck but we live in a very selfish world, for the most part.

Of course I get misunderstood. However, when that happens, I explain myself, and the other party will usually admit to misunderstanding me.

I say "usually" because the other party doesn't always admit to having misunderstood.

I only have a hand time admitting it after someone points it out...

I've been on this site for quite a while. When I first joined I felt like I was that kid who dips his toe into the water just to test out how cold it is. Basically I didn't know how to "act" right when it came to sites like this. It didn't take me long to realize that all I needed to do was be myself. Once I did that I did one of two things.....either I pissed people off or I made them laugh, which in turn brought smiles to their lives. I care more for the latter because.....even if I am misunderstood.....if I have given you a laugh or have made you think about a subject then I consider that mission accomplished. I'm sure their are people on here who don't like me and that's fine. This ain't a popularity contest. I am just gonna keep it real, be my crazy self, and lust after a few ladies on here that I find mega hot!

I swear,I HATE being misunderstood,and yes,I know exactly what you're talking about,happen to me with something I posted before , a lot of folks got it and thought I was talking of me,and said "I was in denial,I was mad cause its like I was being accused of lying!

I must be misunderstanding your topic... I don't understand what you're trying to say.. if you would like .my advice... you just need to ask for it... I'm always glad to help... so what are you trying to say here exactly..
this is about me isn't it.. I just knew it....lol..and.. this topic of yours do you get misunderstood often....awww... you poor thing..
just hate it when that happens...lmao..

o. It sucks how much people just make every issue about them when it has nothing to do with them. I think when people up and rant they are just looking for comforting encouragement, not judgements.
