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.
you intimidate me. you are to beautiful for words and take amazing pictures.2 -

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.2

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.1 -
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.1 -

@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.0 -
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.0

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.1 -

Don't let that stop you! Most of us are here to better our health in one way or another. The forums are just a nice distraction sometimes.1 -

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