Yeah it was a couple of months ago and one of the first people that PM me. I was a little confused about his behavior but i was glad he revealed his true self because I wouldn't want to talk to someone like that anyway. There's plenty of abusive men irl I don't need to talk to abusive men online too

What is this? Second grade? Sheesh
Is it in bad taste to say I'm glad these attitudes are dying off with younger generations? You know what? I own it.
Some people do, or try to
I think those people are the ones that try to have them
The worst behaved people I know are almost all over the age of 45.
Bad news: they all like me better
Well, sorry. Next time I will remember to drop lines about "what a deep connection we have" and compliment your eyes or something.
hahaha. Do ultimatums ever work? If someone said that, even if I wasn't that friendly with the other party, I'd become friendlier with them. How is anyone supposed to not resent that?
Don't make me choose between the both of you. I like you both
Did you let her know you were going to be away? Maybe you triggered her but that is definitely an intense response. Yikes!I don't do much PMing these days (well maybe a bit), but I recall prob around 2003 (under a different username) I had become quite friendly with a woman. I thought we were sort of online friends and had shared a couple of photos, nothing even sexy. I was in graduate school at the time and had to take a few months off Lit and other places while I worked on my thesis. When I came back I messaged her and apologized for being away and out of touch..nothing personal etc. She responded by ripping me a new one, told me to fuck off, and said I must be a complete idiot for thinking we even had a 'thing', "I wasn't her boyfriend' (not that I ever thought I was), and don't ever contact her again. The whole thing was bizarre. I tread lightly around here these days.

I can see both sides of this one.I don't do much PMing these days (well maybe a bit), but I recall prob around 2003 (under a different username) I had become quite friendly with a woman.

Yeah for sure. I was just having this conversation with someone yesterday. While there are no expectations and people may not owe explanations to someone they talk to everyday/often I do think it's good habit and sign of healthy communication to let the other person know if they'll be away for longer than usual.
I deserve this reaction.
Yes. You do
Haven't we all! Same. Especially during grad school, one rarely thinks about someone else's feelings
