Not until I sign up for a Facebook fan page.<br /><br />PS: That guy sounds like someone with a good heart. I like him already.

The challenge however is when the role changes, and the community or the many people decides to cook in their large number to feed the “over sabi” individual, the “sabi too much” individual will certainly be overwhelmed by such excess food and eventually run away from being choked to death.<br />The world is a free arena, so large that an individual can chose to become a renowned snob, become rude and arrogant, pompous to all, but mark my word, many will not notice, after all, the person is just one person among the over 7 (seven) billion human beings on earth. It will only matter if the whole world or many thereof decides to snob the individual, or become rude, arrogant and pompous to the individual. <br />Even though knowing the way you think, you wont like this bitter truth, but you still have to be told whats already happening to you. Both your “5000” facebook friends and supposed real friends are already giving you the “snobbery” treatment having known the real you. First, you make a post on facebook, your blog, and your other facebook blog page, but over 99% of both your facebook page and follower/visitors to your blog are neither acknowledging your post, not liking it nor making meaningful comments and discussion on the post, too bad a score. You realizing this poor outing goes further to specifically name and mention the supposed real friends to come bail you out on your supposed “good post”, but they still sits on the fence and snub you and your invite simply because they don’t want to help you massage your very BIG Ego.

Definitely the ones you want stay far away from.<br />You can avoid lots of trouble by knowing what to look for in a toxic person. Here are fifteen warning signs . . .<br />1. The person talks way too much and listens way too little. Dominating the conversation often signals insecurity, self-centeredness, or narcissism.<br />2. He/she always needs to be right. No matter how big or small the topic, the toxic individual doesn’t allow room for differing opinions and turns a discussion into a debate that must be won.<br />3. There’s constant drama. Some people attract, and maybe need, consistent episodes of crisis, conflict, and clamor. They seem to thrive on having a big personal mess to clean up and feel uncomfortable with a calm routine.<br />4. Truth-telling is not a high priority. Even slight variations on what you know to be the truth, or careful omission of facts, is enough to put the person on your watch list.<br />5. There are signs of addiction or dependency. If left unaddressed, compulsive behavior involving alcohol, drugs, gambling, pornography, and other issues is sure to damage many aspects of the individual’s life—including your relationship.<br />6. Desperation is in the air. Emotionally healthy people will be eager to get know you as an individual—not overeager to get into a relationship (any relationship) because of loneliness or neediness.<br />7. Conversation is salted with sarcasm. Derogatory comments and cutting humor, even if you aren’t the target, signal a lack of empathy or a need to prove superiority.<br />8. Straight answers are in short supply. To your direct questions, you get evasive responses, mixed messages, or contradictions. The person is cagey about where he was last night and how things are at work. If it seems like he’s hiding something, he probably is.<br />9. The person has a victim mentality. All of his/her problems are someone else’s fault—unreasonable boss, unloving parents, lousy roommate, the government. Constant blame-shifting usually demonstrates a lack of personal responsibility.<br />10. “Common folk” are treated poorly. Rude, insensitive behavior toward restaurant servers, dry-cleaners, and store clerks reveals an arrogant attitude.<br />11. The person likes to gossip. Rumormongering serves no purpose except to harm others’ reputations and an attempt to burnish one’s own.<br />12. He/she bashes the ex. Justified or not, no one wants to hear endless complaints about a former partner. There’s nothing healthy about staying stuck in the past. Move on already.<br />13. His/her stories seem grandiose. Exaggerations about accomplishments, acquaintances, and adventures demonstrates a need to brag, which demonstrates a shaky self-esteem.<br />14. The person tries to control you. If you feel pressure to act and think according to someone else’s wishes rather than your own, head for the nearest exit.<br />15. Your gut instinct screams, “Look out!” Trust your intuition—it’s usually a reliable guide. You may like them, but you know you can’t trust them. They’re dishonest and/or unethical and just generally bad news, and they don’t normally appreciate advice or judgement from people looking to steer them toward a better path.Oba of Lagnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4436539161202609679.post-86285464948570480322015-04-15T21:51:20.274+01:002015-04-15T21:51:20.274+01:00Hi Radiant, I recently just understood the importa...Hi Radiant, I recently just understood the importance of leaving feedback for ones posts and that it isn't enough to think how nice the piece is but to say it as well.
