Well just one person offended me by calling me a bitch and told me to "f**k" off. But in general i just see this so much these days. Its really starting to weigh me down. Even my boyfriend cut our night short earlier this week because i couldnt stand the negativity on facebook. I just wish we could all find the positive for longer periods of time rather than tearing others down because we in turn dont feel good about ourselves.
People are Mean and rude online mainly due to the fact that they do not have to physically see the person they are talking to. Human beings are social creatures. We are also very visual. To say those things to someone's face is most likely not going to happen because of those visual Qs we express in our faces. The feeling of guilt can be a very powerful sensation that keeps our mouths shut. However with internet, that face is gone, a screen replaces it.
This distance gives a sense of freedom and allows people to express what's truly on their minds even if that is messed up to say. Its a phenomena that is growing. These people either lack the social skills to think about what their words will do, are perpus lay trying to be mean for their own gain or, in the rare instance, are not trying to be mean. Your situation sounds more like the middle.
The best think you can do in situations like this, and I know it sounds stupid, is to just ignore it. That person is how far away again? It doesn't matter what they say, it doesn't matter what they think, all that matters is how you feel about your self. Hold yourself high, and $@(& those people.
