You Know What I Hate?

Attention seekers.

More specifically, the friends on facebook, myspace, or other similar sites who put up these really vague status messages that beg to be paid attention to.

Examples:

XXXX: "is tired of trying :("

XXXX: "just doesn't know anymore..."

XXXX: "Made a complete mess of everything and there's only one way to fix everything... It's what I must do. Hope everyone will understand..."

To me, these are messages that are simply begging people to pay attention to you. What these people may as well have said is "I'm gonna put just enough of my personal business on facebook so everyone is gonna ask me about it!"

I mean really, what is anyone gonna say to stuff like that? The standard responses would be "What's wrong?" or "OMG, is everything OK?"

And heaven forbid no one should respond to this attention seeking message.

XXXX: "feels like no one cares..."

C'mon drama queens. If you would like to talk to someone, just say it. I always love to talk to friends and help them if I can. What I DO NOT LOVE is feeling as though I have to dote all over them.

Blech.

I have to admit, I've posted a few of these.....but what irritates me is when you DO respond/ask what is wrong and the person replies with something like "mind your own business" or "oh it's nothing, it doesn't matter" it's like WHY did you post it then?!

This cracks me up. I hate this too. What I mostly hate is when people are always "poor me" on there. Hello, get a life and look at the good points. Geez.
