I know it's a lot to ask... and I can understand almost every emotion that most Aqua's have.
I can understand that a lot of us, including myself, are angry, hurt, bitter, or resentful, etc. due to past experiences. No matter how different those experiences are, we can all relate to the feelings and emotions we harbor deep inside.

BUT, we have to remember, that not everyone of a sign is the spitting image of the one we encountered and did us harm. We, as Aqua's, also have a very different sense of humor from other signs and our bluntness can be mis-read as bitchiness or worse.

If you are having some turmoil, I don't see the harm in asking someone to help re-channel that energy into something more constructive. Most of us are old enough to say, "been there, done that, got over it" and would love to share with and help anyone get over personal hurdles. Sometimes we do need a little hand holding.

I just don't think that taking it out on an unsuspecting poster is a good idea. We're here to have fun and to help each other out. Props go a long way, especially for the young ones.

I concur aquaquinn, but most ppl are so addicted to negativity that when ur being positive they regard u as an idiot. Especially here in this site. If u arent emotionally strong, ppl here might just make u crack. I dont believe in taking things personally, but other ppl do. Im glad that ur trying to bring sum positivity here, im behind u all the way.

However, there is a spin on this as well. You come here to share an expeirence, to learn and to make yourself more wise and a better person bcus of it. You do not need negative feedback, just constructive critisism. Being mean, saying swear words and being overall rude will not "help" the person seeking advice or help you in the long run (karma).
So let's all just be one happy family! 🙂

True Nikki. My take on this is, if u have nothing constructive to say the ignore & keep it moving. Sum ppl really do have serious problems when they post here, if u cant help then why waste time replying. I dont know if its boredom or being mean for the sake of being mean. If u ridicule sumbody for their problems, your day will come & maybe then u will understand.

I will align myself with this as well. Everyone has needed outside help at one point or another. Sometimes it's more beneficial to seek help on the internet than irl because you gather more information thru a more diverse group of bloaks who've had numerous situations that can help shed light on your scenario.

I know if I didn't come for help I would of went bonkers because of confusion and reacted incorrectly because of my lack of knowledge in that particular situation. Most people I've come across on here are very sweet, honest and informative, you do come across some trolls who just want to slam you for various reasons and what is sad is that they drive people away and they come out worse than before. Tis sad. I'm usually in the fish pond and in the waterjug section of the site, for various reasons. Both are like minded but you aquas are blunt and honest and I respect that. Don't blow sunshine up my bum...I can do that on my own. God knows my mind can do that. Set it to me straight. Grab my shoulders, josh me around, tell me to wake up and point me in the right direction. I need that and most people do. Now if they are willing to accept that or not is another topic.

Nothing but love for each and every single one of you lovely lads.

+ 1 to all the posts I've read here! It just seems like there is not enough positive energy around us most of the time and we need more good people like you all! 😄

Oh bird, so true. Nobody is an island, if ur mean to sumbody u have never met, it shows that u have issues to deal with. I think that most ppl who ridicule ppl over whatever problem, they themselves have struggles with the same issue & they feel exposed or dont want to be reminded. Its a real shame that we humans do this to one another. Animals, when one is injured, all gather around to lick the wound. Humans are disgraceful creatures. It brings hope & comfort to see others who dont revel in negativity.
