There's no one here I dislike. Some have more obvious qualities than others but everyone brings something to the mix. Even if it's just talking pish.

Giving me a compliment may improve your standing, but is not a requirement for me liking you.

maybe they just aren't reading it over and over and over again, correctly.

Me too. But there have also been ppl like that here that I learned to like, some of whom I still think I'd butt heads with if we were to hang out, but it would still be an overall good experience.

Did that make sense?

i don't like just the orgers who compliment me. it's always nice to read something positive, but i like many, many folks here just because of what they write and how they make me laugh.

I mis-read the thread title. I thought it was "Do you like it when orgers compliment you?"

As to the actual question asked, I like everyone, complimentary or not. Like I said, I always assume everyone has good intentions towards me, so that means I like you.

Do you like me?

I think it's kinda natural (for most people) to enjoy being genuinely liked, so I probably do have a certain spot of appreciation for those who've expressed in some way that they're feeling me. But there are countless more orgers who've not paid me compliments than those who have, and I really like many of them as well, so...

Ya, ya, I know...we all just wanna be loved.

I'm more curious about people who get pissy towards those that don't stroke their ego all the time.

JustErin said:

I don't think I've ever noticed that, but I would love to hear some examples

PurpleRighteous1 said:

Hopefully they will post in here!

JustErin said:

oh that actually happened to me with someone in here recently. but whatever, if anything it just showed how lame that person is

JustErin said:

and they did

NO.....

mcmeekle said:

What is not to like about you? You have a wicked sense of humour.

PurpleRighteous1 said:

Yes, it does... there were a couple that I thought I wouldn't like, but for whatever reason we had orgnote exchanges that made me say, "I'd like to meet him/her."
Of curse there are the ones I hit it off with right away on here, for whatever reason.

PurpleRighteous1 said:

I can think of some, but it'll just "start stuff"

not at all... I honestly like every orger. until they give me a reason
not to.
I don't care about compliments, though they can b nyse at times.

nyse said:

Well, yes...that's what I said. Not getting the response you seek from certain people is enough for some to dislike that person.

JustErin said:

nope... not in my case. as you know i'm very spiritual and beleive in God deeply. I recently had an orger tell me that "my god" is all fabricated, there is no such thing, and i'm kuh-razy 4 even beleiving... I don't think any less of this person. i honestly respect the opinion.

I can dis-like a orger by seeing them treat me or others in a negative/disrespectful/distasteful manner.

Not at all. I post something and disappear for a week. If someone says anything about me good or bad, I miss it.

nyse said:

Oh. Ok.

JustErin said:

I was thinking about that the other day. I really regret the way I used to treat you and I am very sorry about it.

Vendetta1 said:

Don't apologize, it's really ok.

To answer your question, I am one of those Leos that likes to have her ego stroked but I gave up caring if people like me or not on here. Now people tell me I'm popular on here and I don't get it, I don't really see it. All I see is some folks who seem to have a problem with me stating my opinion on something. I have a big mouth and am highly opinionated and I don't see that changing. What also used to bother me if I would feel picked on sometimes and no one would "come to my rescue". I don't give a fuck about that anymore.

The short answer is "no". My best example I think is Ms. SCNDLS. There are a ton of things we don't agree on but I really like her and have tons of respect for her. She is one bad bitch.

Do you only like orgers that compliment you? No.

Nope. I love you! Case in point

JustErin said:

Yeah, you deserved it.

JustErin said:

Yep...

There are quite a few people here I really like but have never really interacted with, compliments or otherwise. JustErin, you're one of my absolute favorites here, but I don't think we've talked very much at all, if ever.

I think I say a lot of stupid stuff on here, so hopefully I take my lumps like a grownup and don't take it personally when it happens. But on the other hand, if I get a compliment, I always really appreciate it and it makes me happy, so it gives me positive feelings toward someone.

Efan said:

You are just absolutely awesome.

And I agree when someone pays you a compliment it gives you positive feelings towards them. Someone I didn't particularly like paid me a compliment the other day. Now I totally cannot be a dick to them anymore.
