Having A Good Cry

I just asked you to explain what seemed so confrontational about me, since you said that you found me extremely confrontational.

This isn't an argument. You stated an opinion and I'm asking you to explain why/how you formed that opinion. Your perspective of me is very different, where I say I am not a confrontational individual, you say you find me extremely confrontational.

This is sorta like if I said "Canada sucks dick" and you asked 'why do you think "Canada sucks dick"?' And I didn't have any explanation as to why I think that.

I said if you can't explain why you find me extremely confrontational, you may post links to prove your point. 

This isn't being confrontational, this is me wanting to learn how to better myself. If you can point out or explain how something I said seems confrontational, I can look at it from your point of view and say oh hey she's right, from over here it does seem that way or explain the reason I said what I said.

Ok. I looked that up.

I guess people do use the word to mean the sort of confrontation that arises from hostility and aggression.

I do not.

 

Lots of people are argumentative without being angry, you know.

No...you asked a question and I explained my answer.

Are you...not able to explain after all? 

I don't think I ever said there was anything wrong with arguing, nor have I said that I enjoy arguing. I think perhaps you've mistaken my curiosity for vehemence.

So I mean, if I'm doing something that seems aggressive, when that's not how I mean it. I'd like it if you'd point it out. I think there may have been some sort of misunderstanding.

I grew up around confrontational people. I knew a few who were even physically confrontational without being angry. The word doesn't mean the same thing in my world as it does to the majority.

Physical confrontation for no reason is a bit much, imo.

 

I'm open to most types of debate tho. I'll even keep debating by the rulebook long after my opponent(s) slip into ad hominems and other fallacies. The practice may be useful to me some day.

Sometimes I'll flip my commentary and use it to fan a roast in progress. It depends on how much time I have and who's being roasted and why. There's never any malice behind it. I get mildly annoyed with people here on occasion, but never angry.

Yes, I know.  Argument; in which you argue/debate/discuss an issue where all opinions are heard and/or discussed. I suppose you could say I am argumentive, but certainly not confrontational.

Confrontational to me means in a hostile manner where opinions are not heard or discussed, that it is set on conflict or set on Intended Conflict (aka Fight me).

I would agree that I am argumentive, perhaps not good at it but I certainly enjoy reading other people's opinions and why reading the how and the why they formed those opinions. Its good to see other perspectives.

What makes you cry?

a variety stuff. but my favorite thing to cry over are TV shows . the likelihood of me crying at a show is actually what determines whether i'll become a long time fan of it. but i know its not only the show itself making me cry, but other stuff going on. there just has to be certain triggers in a show i can't put my finger on (it'd probably be interesting to write them down). it lets me be sad over something fictional instead of serious. i consider it exercise for my emotions.

Do you try not to cry?

no. that's pointless, since you still feel it anyway. i may try to hide the fact that im crying in a public place though.

Do you see crying as weak?

no, since you can't control it. if you deal with it in a bad way, then it's weak.

Have you ever been told you cry to much?

yea, and i agree. lol

Too little?

of course not
