I just did a test. They're all bullshit though.

Thought you were going to put me on the ignore list ?
You'd be wrong about the psychopath test. They don't let that sort in the military. You just have to be strong minded and not too sensitive.

I did put you on ignore, but it’s a hassle tbh, it ruins the continuity of a thread and makes things confusing. It’s easier to just clock the avatar of someone you can’t be arsed with and scroll past their drivel. Not bothering with the site much helps too

Maybe I’d be wrong, as I said, I don’t know what you’re like in real life. You certainly don’t come across on here as capable of empathy I’ve spent enough time around army people to know they let plenty of gobshites and idiots in too.... fucked up your education? No idea what to do with your life? Here... have a uniform and a gun, it’ll make you feel important

That's not me. I'm a qualified and skilled engineer now. I'll admit I have a bit of an explosive/reactionary nature and don't have much time for weak people. None or low empathy !? I'm man enough to agree with that. No one is perfect. I found it easier not to care in some of the situations I've been put in.
Just don't read my posts if they upset you.

Your posts don’t upset me, I just can’t relate. I’m in no better position to judge who’s a ‘weak person’ than you are. How could either of us possibly judge a person as ‘weak’ without knowing what they’ve experienced in their lives? Is a soldier who’s head is wrecked by having seen their friends blown to pieces in front of them in a war zone ‘weak’ because he can’t cope with civvie street and ends up a homeless mess? I can’t imagine looking at people like that when I haven’t walked a mile in their shoes, so to speak. It’s bizarre to me.

I've had friends/opo's killed near me. It's not nice but it had no long term effect on me. Not sure what that says about my mental state tbh. [emoji23]

it’s more likely to be emotional avoidance than psychopathic traits i think.

Thanks. That sounds so much better than being a psycho [emoji23]

Emotional intelligence? It's an interesting subject, a modern concept I believe?

This is a superb read: Daniel Goleman: Emotional Intelligence: Why it Can Matter More Than IQ.

What a bloody boring place this would be if we were all the same huh?

I am a weirdo, do stupid things, cry, laugh, get road rage, suffered mental health issues, love deeply, laugh hard, hate somtimes, I can switch from happy to utter anger in seconds. I am a human being!

Lets stop being so bloody judgey people!

I attended very good course recently on bias behaviours, it opened my eyes. How we are so quick to judge. This forum is about so many things, lets debate yes but don't make it personal

Ok rant over, as u were!
