Two statements at first.
I am obsessed what other people think of me. Also online. But way less than in real life. I know I should not care about the opinions of other people about me. Especially not in an online forum. You are probably right. But I am a kind of ill and I tend to obsessive behavior.
Another fact is: There are probably a lot of people also here in this forum who dislike me. This is just natural. There are people who like you and people who dislike you. I am glad the people who dislike me and my posts don't show that this openly. Thank you for that.
I just had this thought in mind due to the several discussion threads about former members. This happens especially when someone was banned. I somehow ask myself how these (banned) people cope without this forum. I am quite addicted and such a sudden withdrawal could lead me into an existential crisis.
I am just surprised because sometimes the people had like friendships on the surface. But then (after the ban) they openly talk about their antipathy for these people. I don't want to judge that too harshly. It is probably good for the peace in this forum that we can at least pretend sometimes to like someone despite the fact we don't.
I am probably glad that the people who dislike me ignore me instead (don't tell me the truth). I think here are many very vulnerable and unstable people. We should try not to fight us too much and with too many personal attacks. Words can hurt. For us this forum sometimes just looks like a wall of text but there are (in regular) real humans behind the profiles
