It feels like I talk about myself more than anyone on here

To talk about yourself in certain situations, is necessary to get your point of view across.
Personally I find it helpful and helps me view the position or opposition of the responder.

 

I am not on here as much as I would like, but I dont think you post too much about yourself duck! I think you just post just as much as anyone here does about themselves. I post a lot of my experiences on here, just bc I think many could relate!

 

i feel like i talk about me on here way more than most...i do try to only post things that i would freely admit to my immediate family and close friends

 

To each and everybody, the conversational subject matter they always find the most interesting is themselves. Thats why most of you talk solely about yourselves.

If you wanna get someone to like you more, let them talk abou themselves and ask questions; just sit back and listen.

 

I had this one acquaintance from work, that ended up on my bus stop coming home from school.

She was getting a tattoo done and had the outline so far. I asked her why she was getting that tattoo, and it was apparently the million dollar question; I've never seen anyone's face light up so much.

I love you, man. Thanks for the brownie points.

 

I somehow doubt the miscreants care too much about you..

 

That wasn't the implication; it is common knowledge that most people care only (mostly?) about themselves.

There are (or at least, were) people on here that shared entirely too much of their lives, both negative and positive, and I'd never want people I hadn't met to know that much about me.

 

Not only do you talk about yourself, you even created your own thread about talking about yourself.

I just talk TO myself...

 

Yeah, most of what I let on here was done so in various levels of alcoholic intoxication; and is, therefore, most unreliable information.

Edit: If I wasn't so paranoid, I'd take up habitual marijuana use in order to be a less overbearing poster...

 

narcissism at it's blandest

 

The Greek god with whom I identify is not Narcissus; it is Zeus.

 

Can you throw lightning?! :biggrin:

 

Or get headaches and produce daughters?

 

Easily. Though, I gotta admit my power makes me run scurred like barking dogs. :hide:

 

Now you're asking for too much...especially the latter part.

 

On a serious note, I myself think the most interesting posts (and conversation, in general) are the ones when people talk about themselves and the things which are important to them.

If I could do a search, based on that criteria, and bypass all the threads and posts wherein people talk about generalities and abstractions, I would not have a life outside the Hipfora...wait. :sad:

 

I feel exactly the same way... I've just come to terms with the fact that I can't resist talking about myself. But I also like to listen to other people talk about themselves. I just find people fascinating.

 

You're right. I never talk about myself on here. But that's probably because I'm an evil robot.

 

I just always say the exact opposite to throw off suspicion

 

Why resist it anyway?

I've been digging the Relationships forum more than RT precisely because people speak of themselves, their feelings and experiences there. The threads I dig the least are whether doing this or that is right or wrong in abstracto. I like the threads whereby people talk about something that is actually happening in their lives. Who gives a fuck if it's right or wrong!

I'm forever in love with whiny bitches...:bigcry:
