So while on Facebook I made an ambiguous post (to no one in particular) that I was done being used by fake friends and more or less left it that. I didn't name names, I didn't swear or talk shit I just said "you know who you are". I get a comment from someone I have been talking to for months now and he says something like this: "Sorry...next time say it to my face instead of on facebook!" And the post had nothing to do with him at all so I delete the comment and write back, "I am trying to lure him out" and he replied back "You're a dramaqueen, posting a lame post like that and trying to get attention." Okay...despite the fact I told him that the post was NOT about him, maybe one or two people "liked" it one commented on it and I left it at that - yet somehow that makes me the biggest attention whore asshole in the history of Facebook. Whatever...


{Disclaimer: the guy in question is someone that I met last year, early 2012/late 2011 and we've been talking on the phone, sending emails and getting to know each other better.}

Anyway so that remark pissed me off and I fire off a rather lengthy reply (I will try and make a long story short). He is the type of person that will make a backhanded remark to someone (me) i.e. like, "It's okay that you're a closet case, I still think you're cute". Wtf? Okay I have never once said that I was in the closet, no I don't act like Chris Crocker or a member of Rupaul's Drag Race but I guess he is the type of person who insists that you are "in the closet" unless you are wearing pink, and marching in-sync with the band in the parade. I tell him in my message that I do not appreciate these little "jibes" he gets in every time we talk, and it is almost always something to do with being a closet case or being poor/having no money (as If I can help that) and to top it off he laughs and says "lulz just kidding" which I do not believe at this point that he was ever kidding. I think he has been trying to get to me and change me/dictate me lifestyle so that it better benefits him, which is why I have to put up with the daily phone calls at inappropriate hours of the night as well as mouthy/bitchy responses when I don't tell him what he wants to hear.

Now I am not an angel by any means, I can cuss like a sailor and if someone is annoying me I will let them know. In short I am blunt, but tactful but I am already over all of this "let's control/dictate Draven" business it's getting old because it is the same feeling I had with the last guy I was talking to; always wanting to know where I was, why I didn't answer his almighty important phone call, angry if I didn't apologize and kiss his ass afterward, tried controlling me by getting me into things and ideas that I wasn't/aren't interested in. I think it's funny that he would call me a dramaqueen when in fact the post had nothing to do with him (for the attention), yet I am the drama queen for feeling offended and used for being dictated and insulted.
 
Come on. Any Facebook post that says "I'm over fake friends" or whatnot will make some people think you're talking about them...but I can guarantee it'll never occur to the one person you're aiming it towards. If you're "over fake friends", you don't have to post an "I am woman, hear me roar" (or "I am masculine-acting gay man, hear me bellow") on Facebook about it. You can just, y'know, stop dealing with them. That's what I do, and it's the absolute antithesis of "drama".

If you're only attracting Drama Queens and Control Freaks, then perhaps you need to take inventory and make a change.
We are what we attract at times.
 
I should have figured as much, seems like you can't post anything on facebook without any kind of backlash occurring. Anyway sorry I wasted your vaunted wisdom on this pointless thread. >>insert flames >> derailment here.
 
Yea see it figures you can't say anything anymore without being labeled a dramaqueen. I guess muting myself and not venting is the answer.
 
Sorry to sound insensitive, but if that's your biggest problem, you've got life pretty good.

Did you missinterpret my post here? I am not bellyaching about the general stupidity of facebook. I am opening up about a person whom I have been speaking to over the phone and have been getting to know who has struck me as being controlling and maybe jealous. However the brunt of it all seems to have been lost on "ur on facebook lol dramaqueen". So again, no it is not facebook itself that is the problem or my responses on facebook, it is the person with whom I am having discussions with, FB just so happened to be the vehicle or the "catalyst". Does that make sense or is that beneath you as well?
 
I think the point has been made. We may not agree on what the point is, necessarily, but...

Welcome to the boards. It is a fairly easy place to hang out and post.

Point of advice... here in Hot Topics members are free to say what they wish as long as they dont post frontal nudity, derail threads, or insult other members BUT if you ask for advice here then you may get responses like "You are a drama queen get over it"

So if you want relationship advice or flame free discussions about relationship issues you're experiencing then I would suggest you post in Health and Wellbeing... that is a flame free zone and the folks hanging out there want to give genuinely good advice... not that you wont get good advice here but you will get opinions you may not like either...

Just saying...


On topic?? Men sometimes suck and if the one you are with makes you feel shitty then trade him in on a different version. Bottom line is you get ONE life... might as well spend as much of it smiling as humanly possible.
 
Some tough advice...if you are attracting the wrong kind of people...you need to take responsibility and own your role in it. The reason...if you are the victim...you have given them all of the power and that is a really sucky thing to do to yourself.

I know of what I speak. I attracted an asshole from hell as a lover once upon a time and instead of whining about it I figured out that I had attracted him because that is what I wanted and I ignored lots of really nice guys to do so.

Owning that freed me and helped me evolve out of that place.

I agree with this all the way. I cave in too easily at times and I need to just flat out say "NO" even if it makes me seem like a bitch. It seems my lack of assertiveness & self-discipline has once again gotten me into trouble (*puts on psychologist glasses and evaluates self in front of mirror)

You can do it...| Being tough on yourself and brutally honest will give you alot of mental freedom and free you up so when you get the kind of guy you want you will be ready for him.
 
Sometimes it's not realized when we're young, but at 66 I can tell you that life is short. Your "friend" is not a friend and doesn't deserve your time.
 
welcome back to the boards, I guess...whomever you used to be here.

Reading through this thread and some of your other recent posts on the board, you seem to be an aggressive person and I'm assuming you are the same irl. If people you interact with are on edge or cautious around you...feel that you are being confrontational with them, they could react in the manner that you perceive as "drama queen/control freak." Likely they think the same about you.

It also seems likely to me that the guy in question that responded to you on FB thought you were directing the comment at him for a reason...something in a previous conversation that sparked it.
 
With your very first sentence in the OP, you describe yourself as creating drama and throwing shade. The truth is only people who need drama, find it. The rest of us quickly figure out shit-stirrers and stay away from them. The question is - why don't you?
 
That's why I stopped posting or tbh even bothered going to Facebook anymore. You post one thing and your friends thinks you are talking about them. Some people get so sensitive about status posts. And usually posting on facebook won't really resolve much if not it actually cause a lot more problems.

My freinds are super drama queens. They like to create something out of nothing. I recalled the times they gang up to attack on people's post. The horror :bartshock Also that time my teammate posted a comparison of poster between 2 blockbuster movies. The post ended up with paragraphs of random arguments and complete off topic opinions. Our college lecturers even commented in them #-o
