Again I am not unable to or refusing to see any error. As I stated that's why I posted the question.

There has been no passive aggressiveness meant in anything I have said to anyone to my knowledge.

I do take it the way it is intended and it's why I asked the question. To educate myself. If I didn't care then I wouldn't have inquired.

None of my rejoined have been that i will not or would not change things. I am failing to realize nothing.

How am I ignoring anything? I am responding and interacting. There is no belligerance to anything I have said in response to you or any one else.

I believe I said many and didn't say everyone when I spoke about it not being a social site. I do know it is supposed to be one.

Again I expect nothing from anyone. You're projecting your thoughts and feelings into me as you see it.

I asked a question and explained the situation. I was looking for others thoughts on my question.

I say you're projecting on me because you don't know me at all. I don't care if Read more… people tell me I am right or not. I don't care if people respond or not. I am having a discourse with you without expectations of you agreeing with me and after reading your responses it is obvious you don't. Yet I am still cordially resounding.

It has been my honor speaking with you and I thank you for your input. Be well and safe.

I see. I guessed that could be an expectation i however do not see it as one but reach you their own.

Got it, according to you, I should stay in my lane unless someone asks for my thoughts or opinions. Again got it. The opposite of being sociable on a social site but got it.

I expect nothing from anyone on here or else where. Many men do expect that but I am not one of them. The only one that I have any expectations from is my wife who is also my sub. I am very much into education in the lifestyle and tell anyone that I do actually interact with either on a site Read more… like this or in the lifestyle educational group I have that no one should expect that from anyone they are not in a dynamic with. I am fully on record on the internet and local groups that expectations like that are red flags for anyone.

It's an option to DM that's why. Am not being rude or anything. I am not continuously sending messages. It's one message. It can be ignored as some have.

Putting anything on another is wrong. Especially emotionally or verbally. I just take responsibility for myself.

I guess I lived through the lifestyle different. I think i may have figured out a few things but the largest one is that many people are using this more as a hookup site than a Read more… lifestyle site. Maybe my thoughts on the site is off. I am in other lifestyle sites and regular sites and this is where I have this issue.

I mean I know a 55 year old married Dominant isn't what most people look for in any manner. Not that I am looking for hook ups here or anything per say. My wife (sub) always says unicorns are fantasy ***s for a reason lol. I actually thought I could include people on here with my group from another site for lifestyle education where speakers from the local community come and gives classes but I don't think this site is for things like that.

Correct feelings don't determine whether a person is reasonable or not.

I guess I am learning through here that I should just keep compliments to myself.

I don't use it as a way to hit on them. As stated I compliment and move on without recontacting them.

Thank you

There was nothing nefarious. It was a simple statement to compliment. As stated i expected no response or anything and after the compliment I moved on and never messaged them again. I don't expect responses to compliments though if one were given i would expect a thank you just because that's Read more… what a normal person does when complimented. Again I didn't expect anything and normally don't get any reply.

Oh believe me I know. I am an amature photographer and some specific photos catch my eye because of creativity, lighting, etc. I give a simple compliment and go about my business. Very very few have even reacted to a compliment, very very few even respond one way or another, majority is a Read more… negative response. The ones that don't react I leave alone. The ones that do respond with a thank you i give a you're welcome and move on. The negative I block.

As I stated it was a simple I like your photos basically. Nothing more.
