    Who here is or was intimidated by @kinetixtrainer2 ?

    Because that might be the best example I can think of for someone who would never do it intentionally

    He actually seems like the least intimidating person! I think he is very kind and supportive

    Aww thank you.

    Somehow that is intimidating in and of itself....

    Tell me about it brother, I feel the same.

    Most of you did when I started to visit the forum and some still do. I remember recently accepting a friend invitation I would have extended myself before if it wasn't for feeling a bit.. so-and-so. Of course I realize it's all in my chicken mind. You're all hella nice, even though sometimes I really get lost in what's discussed. :smiley:

    you intimidate me. you are to beautiful for words and take amazing pictures.

    If you let people intimidate you in a web forum then I am concerned with how poorly you would handle a physical confrontation.

    Just sayin'

    DISCLOSURE: I teach Combatives, Defensive Tactics, and Personal Protection

    Sorry physical confrontation is easier to deal with that social rejection

    I find both easy to deal with. Not saying I'm a badass by any means, just that most times I really don't care about social issues or if I'm accepted or not into a social group. I'm me, don't need to be a part of a group to determine who I am.

    As to physical confrontation, the key is avoidance. If you can't avoid, as long as you can breath you protect yourself to the end.

    I don't post/engage often enough to get "in" here. And honestly half of that is just that I am intimidated by the speed of new comments coming in and the fact that everyone seems to have personal jokes that I just don't get. I kind of just...meh...gave up. I come check out the threads here on work days when I have not much on my plate.

    agree. I don't really understand how reading what someone writes in chit chat can be intimidating.

    Now... The IRS. Those kittens are intimidating.

    I get some people have social hangups. Both IRL and online. For some, the online realm is their social interaction. Especially as the world gets further involved with the electronic realm.

    I am one of the least intimidating people ever so I don't know why or how I give off this vibe

    This is exactly what intimidating people say.

    I used to be super intimidated by @Avocado_AS5 and @CoffeeAndContour

    :( I’m sorry. I’ve always tried to come across as nice and welcoming but you never know how you’re perceived by others.

    However @Avocado_AS5 intimidates me a little too.

    @CoffeeAndContour, I can totally see how both you and @avocado_as5 can be intimidating. Nice, but both beautiful and confident!

    Waaaa????
    I actually get this a lot, on here and in real life. I'm not sure why. Maybe it's my RBF. I'm seriously chill AF. I'm super nice y'all. Just get kinda preoccupied in my own head sometimes.

    I can’t say that I could call out anyone in particular that is intimidating, but think posting in the forums can be a little nerve-wracking for people, especially if they are sensitive to woo, or sarcastic feedback. I’ve hid under a rock a few times because I didn’t know what to think of someone’s response to a post, but now I don’t really give much thought to it.

    I use to be intimidated by a lot of you. Not so much the case anymore.
    I have actually friended some of those that use to intimidate me and realized they are cool as heck!

    @leut_underpants definitely does not intimidate me anymore...even if my boobs have his name on them, but he still won't accept my friend request.

    another I agree with :/

    Wait, my name is on your boobs, @JustKeepTryin ?

    LMAO well not that part! :D:D

    I shy away from in depth, peer reviewed, scientifically verified conversation with people who are obviously more intelligent than I am and have lots of post secondary education (I don't).

    Those people converse in the more serious threads, especially the debate section. Intellectually and educationally, I'm not cut from that cloth and I know it.

    I think that's a good thing, to know your limits and not to think you're smarter and more knowledgeable than you are about specialized topics that require a lot of background study.

    I will go over there and make fun of them though and impress them with my expertise in celebrity trivia and hairstyle fashions, so there's that.

    You don't need a PHD. You just need a one-liner that can be interpreted as satire or serious, sarcastic or straight. . depending on who is reading it.
