no dont answer mel.

It’s a contradiction (perhaps), not an oxymoron … sorry, I know I’m a pedant, and this does say more about MY issues …. but I feel I would fail in my pedantry if I were not to point this out.

I thought the whole idea of a forum was to get everyones different opinions etc about each topic thats posted on here.

Why do some people use insults?? Very childish in my opinion.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion surely…we are not always going to agree with each other but i respect everyone elses point of view…even if i think they are wrong!! LOL.

Back on topic (cos I’m scared of Kenty :lol: )

Someone who is confident in their opinion can express it and feel no need to defend it – explain it yes, but not defend – and isn’t bothered what others think of it. Someone in this position also finds it easy to listen to and consider alternative opinions, using them to test their own opinion and see whether it is still valid for them or needs some consideration. This requires emotional intelligence, and such a person can adapt their opinion to new learnings without feeling the need to defend themselves but seeing it as personal growth.

Someone who is not confident in their opinion or is of lower emotional intelligence sees every opinion that differs from their own as a threat, attacking the differing opinion before theirs is questioned so that they don’t have to defend it. This attack often takes the form of insulting, belittling, deriding and using bad language. What this person cannot see is that once they have done this any argument they may have had has been lost, along with any respect that others might have had for them.

Alternatively they could just be arrogant, self-centred opinionated so-and-so’s who always think they are right and everyone else is wrong. :lol:

Fck me you dont half go on .

Bull shite is Bull shite, “emotional” intelligence or not……… bet a ball gag.

yes but if she did not go on and on and on…. then kent, annette, teapot, su, anc, would have no idea what they are supposed to be supporting…….
