are you just narked that no-one rushed with replies to this post? Sounds like you were after a bit of sympathy there

[cazzz1975]

mind you he is a troll and trolls are fun to banter with, come on jon! anymore words of wisdom crawling out of the walnut for a brain??

[4getmenot]

I dont, Things in my life are pretty rosy :-) I do however bring up my past on here, but I feel I've grown stronger from it but usually to use as help or advice. Some people arent feeling sorry but do have problems, but yes some things like bad hairs days dont need to be fretted over :-)

[jonpmay]

i don't hate the site, i like it. just wondered how you would react if you ever had a real problem?

[cazzz1975]

you have hit the nail on the head there redcrx

[Panic Button]

I've got a stick. Shall I poke him aswell?

[4getmenot]

nice one red. and if they had real problems I'm sure they'd still come on here :-)

[Rosenicola]

Think Jonpmay is back down now we have the evidence that he 'moans' himself...

We are just having a nice chat to PPL about things that we have on our minds..

Just because we have a problem, doesn't mean soneone else will have the same..

I sense double standards here - LOL

[redcrx]

People see their problems in different ways. Jon, you have obviously been in worse situations than being dumped but to some thats as bad as theyve had it so why cant they feel a bit sorry for themselves?

[cazzz1975]

people do have real problems

http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Body-and-Soul/Q uestion408371.html

what is wrong with being friendly and talking though your problems however big or small, it certainly isnt pathetic

[jonpmay]

no you see thats a real problem! lost my job, too ill to work, lost my flat and now been told can't have kids. all due to my illness! my point exactly is i never winged about it! just got on with it!

[wigglebum]

All problems are a problem big or small, psychological or physical who are you say people are pathetic and need to get a grip surely that's what people are doing here getting stuff of there chests and hoping to find people with similar problems.

[redcrx]

well good for you Jon, but what if someone in your situation was to post on here with those problems, would you tell them to get a grip???

[4getmenot]

good for you, some people dont, some people need to talk and take comfort in others messages back. If you dont need us fair enough. :-)

[cazzz1975]

surely you are winging now though....??? and not getting on with it??? you posted before about your problem...is that when you were getting on with it??

[Octavius]

To some extent I do agree with you.

Understandably people have issues in their lives that they feel the need to share or get opinions on, or specifically ask questions on. There are others that post inane comments on their daily �trials and tribulations� either to get attention, to generate chat or just to wave the �feel sorry for me, make me feel important� banner.

Unless it is a genuine problem in which I feel I can have an input and assist in an educated informative way then I just avoid it and let everyone else contribute. And thus, the world keeps turning.

[jonpmay]

well i wouldn't want to be in the trenches with any of you lot. i did start this out as a bit of a joke but a few of you just got all defensive.

[bigmamma]

Are you seriuos jonpmay .
Put the wooden spoon away .

[cazzz1975]

calling a bunch of strangers pathetic and trivialising their problems...hmmm yes I missed the joke it seems

I think you should take your own advice and stop winging and get on with it..

[Octavius]

Incidentally, you do appear to have drawn the attention of a braying mob for speaking out. Either you have done something terrible to deserve it (a dastardly evil multi-user/troll perhaps?), or the �gang culture� is still alive and well in Answerbank Land.

No-one is to stone anyone until I blow this whistle. Do you understand?
