I had a local member that I talked to on-line for just over six months. Recently I wrote him a couple of times to say one of his network members acted very odd in our local chatroom. He took offense and I apologized. He accepted the apology and I indicated that he should forget the whole thing. Last night, both appeared in the same chatroom and I primarily talked to others. I mentioned how I perform as an Elvis impersonator. This morning, I received a nasty e-mail from my friend's network buddy whom I had criticized. He called me names, criticized my Elvis and blasted me for criticizing him as I did not know him. I wrote my friend a final e-mail saying that he could not be trusted and I wiped him out of my network and out of my life by blocks of e-mails, winks and hotlists after telling him I would do so. I feel I did the right thing. But why do I feel so blue?

I just have one thing to say, SCREW HIM, because if he was your friend non of this would have happen. Say good ridince to him and be done. Life is to short for all this BS. Enjoy your life, the only person you HAVE TO PLEASE is YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you seem like a cool honest guy, my advice is to move on....you don't need people like that in your life. Be comfortable with who you are and confident in yourself. I just joined last week and have already encountered some bizarre things and members. I like you don't understand people....don't try it will only make you crazy. Elvis is ok in my book!!!

Blue, people are jerks, no matter who they are or what they are, we as humans are always suprised by reponses that seem to come out of nowhere, we feel disapointed by how people react, blueness is our innner reaction to why? i cannot tell you the number of time i am in awe of people not for want the do or say but for the utter supidity of need to be a class A Jerk!

You shouldn't feel bad,I think you did the right thing,to drop him,he wasn't your friend from the beginning.I must agree with the rest of the guys.Chat rooms are for getting acquainted with ...So if I have special to tell a guy I would instance message him or send him an e-mail to let him know how I feel.So don't worry you did the right thing.

Love Ya!

You lost a friend and he broke your trust and you acted on it. Do not feel badly for the way you acted just feel badly for the way he acted is what you need to do. I don't chat sincee most the people I would like to chat with seem to like the cam room chat so they are really looking at cams and I don't so I would just be a fish out of water there.

The biggest problem with knowing people just through the iteret is that the bond is so sight not being cemented in real meetings face to face that it gets broken way to easiy as your did with that fella.

I've realized this after years on the internet so I do not get too attached to my online only friends since they become exfriends at the drop of a pin usually. Hugs and it wasn't your fault so just remember that. PS-since they are not real life friends-they hold no confidences is another fact you face here. I just might blog about this soon.

With any loss of friendship we go through a grieving period, it's only natural. I can't make any comment on the situation that led to your loss. As with any interpersonal friction an outsider doesn't know much other than the usual "he said ..... she said ...." stupidity. You can only really sort that type of thing out between yourselves, each to do a bit of soul searching as to their own motives or intentions in saying anything.

Loss of friendship can usually be put down to stupid behaviour, most often not only from one side but a combination of both. But that's human nature and it's doubtful any of us can claim an absolute exemption from that.

I have an agreement with all of my friends who are on this site.

In public(chat rooms), anything goes , but in private (IM's) anything said is confidential unless otherwise stated.

So far, that has worked well for me, but I don't blame you for choosing to omit this 'friend' from your network...sounds to me as if he can't be trusted.

One more thing about the chat rooms here - I never say anything too personal. I feel they are there more for entertainment purposes than anything...any plans for hook-ups etc. should be done in private.

Take care
Steve

There is no 'dis' in my ability
