Davey,
Of course people with low self-esteem hang out on a site dedicated to that goal.
Do you think people hang around the court once the game is won?
We are all shooting for the hoop right now, hoping to score.
But that is up to each individual to figure out when to move on to the next
project.
It will serve you best to consider or ignore those that challenge you
emotionally in a negative way, and reward those that do it in the positive way.
What you pay attention to grows, ultimately.
Dan

"People" weren't abusive - Mike R was. And now you are being.

Like a typical abuser, you try to blame the person you are abusing
for it. You also admit you are a "bitch", then deny you are abusing
me, and then go on to do it ("less clever than we think you are").

And while your comments are water off a duck's back to me, I am sure
there are people in your life that you genuinely hurt. Does it make
you feel better? Does misery indeed like company?

Who would have thought that those that hang out on a self-esteem
related forum would have such low self-esteems - on second thoughts,
don't answer that.
