Be honest: are any of you mean-spirited?

[End Piece]

In very typical insomniac fashion, I've been running through all the regrettable things I've done.
Come to realize, I'm a bully. No joke, I get pleasure from verbally taking people down, especially the ones closest to me. The only fix for it is if I bite my tongue, but those ugly thoughts are still in my head. I think I've been this way my whole life.
Yet another reason to CTB. They just keep stacking up.

I wouldn't say I'm a bully or enjoy tearing other people down "just" for my own pleasure, but when they deserve it, that's what they get. I might as well enjoy it then, right?

Hey, if you're on this site, you gotta get enjoyment where you can.
I suppose in the moment I think the deserve it, but I regret it later. Possibly even much, much later.

Oh, I can relate to that. The guilt can be terrible.

Too much the opposite, which is also a bad thing tbh cause people take advantage

 

[Final Escape]

Not always lol!

So true!

Only when the occasion calls for it.

 

[Dartz]

I'm kind of a sociopathic cunt at times yes

 

[Wreck-it-Riley]

I have BPD so I act out but it hurts me to do so. In my soul I think I have pure intentions but my BPD hurts people which hurts me.

This. i want to be a kind motherly figure, but i end up being a harsh downer.

 

[Lethe]

I can be, yes. I have very low tolerance for stupid/ignorant people, or people who can't think for themselves.

Cunt is such a fantastic word. I wish we Canadians used it more.

 

[woxihuanni]

Nah, can lose my shit and be brutally honest at times, though. Don't know why I'm not doing it to the one who deserves it the most before I fucking die.

I don't see the point of this question targeted in this forum.
Are you purposefully aiming at the current demography active in SS?

Good and mean spirited people are everywhere regardless of any type of population from everywhere in this world.

And lastly you have to define what you mean by good/meane spirited in this damn Grey world where context of every viewpoint change depending the type of person and their own life experiences.

imo its a great off-topic question that can further discussion of self reflection and personal analysis on a forum where some of us on here are affected by our personal demons, what we've done, and how we are as humans that has shaped our journies. I mean i could say i fall under this pretty easily. The question essentially wants us to in a critical sense, engage in some sort of personal analysis process where we deeply think about ourselves from an outside of the box type of way of thinking. it could also be helpful in perhaps specifically understanding more about the negativity that holds us down and how to fight it in perhaps getting better and changing our nature.

Lastly, pretty sure like many things in this world, theres a broad definition and understanding of everything. so imo, mean-spirited is this whom withold negativity, and in the process have reciprocated and inflicted that negativity into the world, whether its just things or other people in general, and the ugliness, darkness and negativity within someone where the bad outweighs the good; vice versa in a good spirited sense, the good outweighs the bad. pretty much the broad definition of it, where there doesnt really have to be a definitive specific definition since its generally understood in a broader sense of understanding; i.e., how the users above us have taken it.

 

[CuriousAboutThis]

Normally, I would say no but honestly it would depend on the scenario in some cases yes and some cases no now if I am in control of myself than I would prefer to calm, relaxed, and "normal".

The point of the question was to see if anyone else can relate to having the darkness inside them seep into others. We are a grim bunch and knowing how hard it is to live with the thoughts we have, I was curious to see how it affects SS members personalities.

 

[Wayfaerer]

idk, I'm very polite in-person but at the same time I've wished death on a lot of people I don't personally know.

I really feel you. I alienate everyone around me if I don't make an effort to hold myself back. I'm a fairly low IQ person, but when it comes to arguments and insults I deliver the most brutal, soul rushing verbal takedown, and I hate myself for this.

 

[TearyEyedQueen]

Honestly sometimes I'm glad for having social anxiety disorder because if I didn't… Let's just say my mouth would produce some very foul and cruel words toward those who I'd say deserved it lol.
Also I'm aware that I've become somewhat of a toxic person in real life.

 

[ArtsyDrawer]

Hm.
"Mean spirited" sounds like it means intentionally being a dick. Sometimes I kind of wish I could be mean spirited, but I can't. I'm too soft.
...until I'm prodded enough...
But to turn me mean spirited takes either a lot of work, or turning kepprage on, which is done by exposing me to stress.
Normally, though, I'm too much of a pussy.

 

[imstillhungry]

Sometimes. I don't want to be, but it's like I can't help it. My parents were extremely physically and mentally abusive and as much as it pains me to admit it, I definitely picked up their nastiness. The other day I was reading a school report from when I was 7. It said I struggle to make friends, and when I do I say mean things to them and don't care about their feelings. I was fucking seven. Did no one think that no seven year old is inherently bad, and there must be a reason for it?!
On the other hand throughout adulthood I've become a doormat. I get too attached to people I love and will do ANYTHING to keep them around, including spending all my money on them and allowing myself to be used. As long as they don't leave...

 

[MissNietzsche]

Nope, quite the opposite, actually. I can seem cold online sometimes, but most people who know me call me super kind-hearted.

 

[not-2-b-the-answer]

Sometimes …
I have said things to people that I regret.

 

[Mizzmini45]

i'm called "too nice" which is a bad thing at times. Always been the "sweet" girl by nature all my life. If someone is nice to me I usually give it back 10 fold. i had bouts of mean moments but that was because i was upset at a current situation and that never lasted. I usually always tried to find a way to apologize to the people i hurt and right the wrong if it was possible. Guilt would consumed me

 

[Moonicide]

No, not at all... Well, not anymore.
When I was younger I had the energy to be mean-spirited. I was burning bridges left and right with people.
As I got older, I grew tired. Knew I was hurting others, and began to hurt myself solely. I was so different when I was younger that I can't relate to her anymore... I used to have so much energy to be mean and hurt people. I enjoyed it, because I was an insecure little girl with no sense of direction. I was hurting and that meant you had to hurt with me too, hurting alone wasn't something I was willing to bare at the time. I learned a lot of it from my abusive parents, took a lot of time to undo those behaviors. But when you get older you realize how your behavior can ruin people and their lives, and you don't want that.

 

[TrailerTrash]

Nope - would help anyone ... wish it was reciprocated during my lifetime.

 

[Squiddy]

Nope. I'm told I'm too nice

 

[ScorpiusDragon]

I've been told I'm too nice, but I can be completely cold, when pushed far enough.
