    .......to be kind to other people? ...And when someone is kind to you, do you remember their kindness and return the favor, or just ignore them?

    Or do you just not give a fuck about other people?:devil:

    I'm always nice to other people...

    I'm only mean to people who deserve the meanness...

    I don't give a fuck about other people unless they have something or can do something that will benefit me

    The ugly bitch who asked me if I was pregnant the other day...

    I told her, "No, I'm just fat. You look like you could afford to lose a good 30lbs...luckily I'm only 10lbs overweight :D"

    And this is why our society is falling apart.

    It is this generation that will be ruling the nation in 30 years...

    I don't know if I'm nice or not but I do what I do. I think if you have to think about doing the right thing then it's not as good as doing it naturally but getting into the habit of it makes you a better person so it's a start. I sometimes think against doing something nice and do it anyway. It makes me happy when I see that but, you know, there's always space to be a better person :)

    I agree, there's nothing wrong with getting into the habit of being kind. I've never seen what the big deal about being nice to others is. Some people are afraid to because they think their kindness with be mistaken for weakness, or maybe they're just too "cool" to be kind.

    I'm fairly nice to everyone, until they give me a reason not to be.

    However I don't trust anyone until they give me a reason to do so.

    I try to always be kind to people. I very much believe that putting good energy into the universe will make the world a better place. However, I do have quite the temper so sometimes I am not nice at all and then I feel super bad.

    yes, we do. we are born, and die, alone.

    being nice to people is not something truly altruistic - we all need companionship, friendship, success, self assurance, re-assurance, comparability, bukkake, generosity, safety and our sexuality. being nice to other people will achieve these things.

    there is, however, nothing wrong with being nice to others. i try to be kind as often as possible.

    For the most part I am kind without having to consciously intend to be, EXCEPT when I'm in a bad mood.

    I'm all about the random acts of kindness.


    BUT: If I see someone do something disrespectful (to someone else) prior to my own personal encounter with them, I can tell you that my interaction with them is generally affected by their rudeness. Sometimes a person's behaivor irritates me so much that it is hard for meto be kind to them- knowing how they've treated someone else.
    ~I apologize for the unclear pronoun references that might make the above thought a bit rough to interpret~

    OR say I get to work in a bad mood, I'm not necessarily unkind, just lacking the energy to be cheery and pleasant :p

    no one's perfect...I'm not perfect

    Yeah, it almost makes me not want to have children... But then I think, "when i have kids, if i raise them right, maybe they can help fix the world and make it a better place. Then they'll have kids, and my grandchildren can do the same thing as my children." So maybe there's still hope :)

    I just act nice to everyone I see until they act mean to me. Depending on how mean they are I either just brush it off, or I act mean to them. Treat others how you wish to be treated, right?
