Um, no, he obviously identifies and contributes to conflict in his life.

Why do people like to cause others to loose their happiness?

People cannot cause our unhappiness unless we allow it. It appears you are giving these people the power to make you unhappy and you apparently still have your girl, so the question for me is "why are YOU allowing it?"

quote:

RobertCloud
I have not taken her to my favorite chat venues because if I did they would try to steal her from me the moment they got the chance. Oh, I know this girl better than the others, and I know she would not leave me like the others, but I don't want her to have to deal with those trying to cause misery either. Why have her deal with that pain when I can help her to avoid it?

Hey...imagine if they did one of those reality shows where Robertcloud, jerseykrissi, michaelofgeorgia and susanofo all lived in the same house.
What fun that would be.

Could we throw in Defiantbadgirl, to spice it up?

Otherwise it would be all crying and huddling and trailerliving, and that would be no fun.

Yours,

Greeting RobertCloud,
we attract the people and conflicts in our lives. You are attracting these people who cause you conflict quite possibly because you identify with conflict and on some level don't believe you deserve happiness...you are sabatoging yourself and giving these negative forces power over you. It is my belief if you start focusing on the positive and the type people you want in your life, ignoring the others, in time you will find you no longer have the negative people you are speaking about or certainly will not be "dominated" enough by them for them to affect your life~
dawntreader,
i couldn't agree more.  i don't know RobertCloud at all but i have read the ongoing threads where there seems to be alot of problems and drama going on.  i do not have drama in my life because i have never allowed it.  i choose not to associate myself with those who do have it.  i have seen many people who seem to thrive on chaos and drama but i just won't have those type of people in my "inner circle," if you will.  Fortunately, Master is exactly the same way so that just reinforces that aspect of O/our life.  It may sound anti-social but the more people one involves in his/her personal business, the more potential for trouble.  Master and i both have very few close personal friends in whom W/we feel comfortable confiding.  Having a huge circle of "friends" (who may indeed not really be) just leaves the door open for lots of unnecessary involvement in your personal affairs. 
 
RobertCloud, you mentioned that, in the past, you would introduce your significant other to "all your online friends" and the misery would soon begin (backstabbing, lying, trying to steal her, etc.).  Don't you realize all those "friends" aren't? Informing them of your personal affairs is perhaps not the wisest choice.  It seems like your desire to tell everyone or brag overrides your common sense in such situations.  i would suggest keeping your private affairs private until such time as you are secure in the knowledge that the new person in your life won't be influenced by the efforts of all your online connections.  And some analysis of which of your online buddies are really friends (if any) is probably in order as well.  Good luck.........slave luci

I'm reminded of childish bullies who make fun of others in an attempt to make themselves look clever and entertaining.

The petty and cruel behavior I've seen displayed by some in this thread makes me ashamed to even be a contributing member here.  I'm reminded of childish bullies who make fun of others in an attempt to make themselves look clever and entertaining.  It's one thing to express a negative opinion regarding the OP, quite another to carry on like a harpy.

RobertCloud... I don't know why some people behave the way they do.  I would suggest that you simply distance yourself from those who can't add anything positive to your life.  You cannot control other people, only your own actions and reactions.
