Drama

If I could create a program to sort thru profiles and weed out some of the most undesirable ones, I guess it would simply filter for the word "drama". Apparently, 96.7%* of the most inane people who place online profiles do so with some words to the effect that they have no and want no drama in their lives.

I mean sure, I know what they are really saying is they don't want negativity and they want to avoid people with the tendency to argue and fight and such. Nevertheless it's pretty much like those people who say they want "someone real" or "no liars", "cheaters" and such.

Like all those dramatic lying, cheating sorts will read your profile, gulp and move onto someone less particular? NO! Of course they wont! Once you declare that you want no dramatic lying cheaters, it's like you've made yourself a magnet for said types! rolling on the floor laughing


As for those profiles fecklessly crying against "drama".... (evil grin) don't knock it 'till you try it!

Hey. Sociopathy sometimes presents via refined writing/speech. And banter, which for some may be a foundation for grounded committment, falls under the rubric of drama, ...of a different sort. Can't BS the BS-er. Aa.
Afterboy, when it comes to BS I am something of an expert. However, we are dicussing drama here. Not BS. professor
i pass on the ones who are in shape. i sure don't want to go to the gym and bond
i also stay away from the real good looking ones. i don't want high maintenance
I certainly understand that. But what about drama?
drama...it bores me
Oh yeah? When you watch a movie, do you avoid dramas? grin
in a movie is different than real life. i prefer thrillers or detective stories. i misunderstood your blog. i enjoy watching people, but not for the twisted manipulation, more for the spontaneous unfolding of life
Yes, but haven't you noticed how many cookie-cutter like profiles say something about "no drama"? Cliched language is something of a turn off for me. It doesn't get much more cliched than "drama". Anyway, that's the point I'm making.
got it. yes, i understand your statement. i would take "no drama" as a red flag for baggage. even though they say they don't want drama, if given the opportunity, they will share hours and hours of stories if given the chance.
True, that is a red flag indeed. I once had a date, and the guy talked for almost 3 hours. He went on and on and on. Much of it was negative. I can only think I must have been really bored that day because these days I would have come up with a great excuse to leave abruptly. Any excuse at all. laugh
that must have been very painful
I can watch/hear all the drama that I want in real life but the internet is like watching/reading a ready made soap opera.laugh
Unfortunately many are rather melodramatic about their lives including myself. Who among us is without flaw?
Yes everyone puts out their laundry list of everything they don't want in their lives because they already are suffering. Most just want a magic wand to wave all their problems away. A new relationship a home or job or something to escape the mess they made by their own doing and choices. There are 3 kinds of people out there Perpetrators victims and rescuers they are interchangeable based on various circumstances. Drama of life will always seem to be a constant in the human universe. The profiles that complain the most about it could be a warning sign they are full of it and themselves. Yet, this is supposed to be a dating social site so it claims hence, I wonder what is the point of being here? To learn about and be compassionate to one another rather than judging and criticizing. I find it more frustrating when people stop to window shop and I admit I do it to. However, when trying to initiate a conversation nobody responds. The lights are on but nobody seems to be home. I am aware CS posts fake test profiles from time to time. What they test for I know not. Anyhow, to me this blog has it's merit so I commend the OP. In a world gone crazy with war terrorism social Injustice and corruption it would be nice to have a place to discuss anything and everything that burdens us. There can be beauty and healing if we all work in harmony. Be the change you want to see in the world.
I agree entirely with what you´re saying here. In fact, I often thought of writing a blog about this topic.

As you say, people who write what they do not want, will automatically attract people with those traits.

Also, if they write that they only want sincere, loyal, honest etc... one automatically assumes that they have had insincere, dishonest people etc. in their life? dunno
To the above comment ^^^`^^^^^^^ Hi, nice to see my words being copied. Thanks. roll eyes
Hey Cham,

good to see you writing a blog again...drama-free one!laugh
Btw. .my first comment was to the OP.
Really great comments above. Sorry I wasn't online to respond at the time.

Yeah, it rings true that people that denounce a thing are probably perpetrators of said thing. grin

Thank you everyone who commented. handshake
Daniela,

I had not been on this site for ages. If I posted something similar to something that you posted, it was not intentional. No copying or pasting here. I have no trouble coming up with my own material when I feel like doing so.

Or perhaps I'm mistaken and that is not what you meant? Feel free to correct me if needed.

Thanks.
Crazyheart, thank you.

Akeldama, you make a lot of good points. Are you a psychologist? cool
