    I learned not to invest too much time on people here. They will kick you to the curb as soon as someone else sparks their interest.

    Girl...that's why I don't crush anymore. Everything is fleeting around here.

    Men like compliments. They even post long articles about how hard it is being a man and not getting enough compliments. It's a big issue they talk about on reddit.

    That sounds true . Guys give compliments to women all the time . MFP is just one small example of that . Women give less to men i think because women know just instintively that some guys just will never let up and stop annoying them basically if they think a girl even 10% likes them . When a woman gives a real proper compliment , pay close attention because she likes you . No woman is going to draw a guy on her she does not like alot , so she will be careful with whom she compliments . And yes guys love when a girl for example might fix his tie and say looking good handsome , with those come get me now eyes .

    I like giving compliments. And on here, people are more accepting of them than sometimes they are face to face, because some people get uncomfortable when you say something nice about them (I am one of those IRL).

    I've learned that people make up sh**t just for the sake of making it up. Take these for example:

    TMI Tuesday
    Hump Day Wednesday
    Filter Friday.

    WTF? The thing is these are actual things on MFP. Admittedly, I've participated in TMI Tuesday once, since all the cool kids were doing it. B) Not so cool anymore.

    People tend to take themselves way too seriously. It's the internet. Most people are here to get their egos stroked and feelings validated.

    Things that I have learned

    .....

    Nope, not coming up with anything that I didn't already know. I use the site to log my food and post funny things here. Treat people how I want to be treated and let everything else slide off. I know who I am, what I want, and where I belong. I also believe that just because I might meet and speak with someone only for a moment, a day, a year, or a lifetime, everyone has something to give, to learn, and to teach in even the tiniest of moments. What you decide to take out of it and how you choose to view that interaction is up to you. Personally, I'm thankful for them all. And to top that off..

    I don't understand the appeal of the person above you threads. Over fours years on mfp and still haven't learned what the appeal is. And don't want to.

    I think it's an opportunity for people here to be free to say whatever they want to other people, either nice or very unkind. Technically one can't complain because one joined the thread and agreed to take the risk. I chirped in on the person above you threads a couple of times and met with both reactions. I found it was addictive and I was checking back too often and tempted to keep on adding to the chatter which would have been a major time waster, as I see it. I've got floors to scrub, books to read, sunny walks to take, drives to the Chinese joint to make, overtime shifts to work, etc.

    But seriously, if I was unemployed I'd probably partake in these threads from time to time.

    I've found its mostly employed people at work on here :D

    This is me, 90% of the time!
    The other 10%, I'm asleep!

    Nah, I don't go on when I'm training clients but in between and at my other job. MFP is my favourite place to be!
