Thanks for proving my point!

Oh, the Irony 👏

What is my image? 😊

If you are suggesting that I put out a fake image, what image is it that you see? Describe, if you can. I'm guessing that you cannot and that, and as usual, you are just full of it 😊

When you call yourself @Mr Awesome, one might expect an indication of something befitting of the description. Clearly, you were being ironic. 😊

At least we know @Mr Awesome's party trick is clicking on emojis.

Ask him how he can stay here not retired or working, although another pack of lies will come forth.

You are seriously trying too hard to be convincing!

That's what liars and narcissists do. They have a limited amount of endurance after being called out so keep repeating the same old lines, won't say anything about themselves for fear of being labeled what they are, deflect everything others say to direct attention away from them, and assume most everything having less of a satisfying life than everyone they encounter, hence the insults.

Just for an evaluation, like many do, I went to AI................It sounds like you are describing a classic pattern of defensive behavior, often seen in online trolls, toxic arguers, or defensive individuals who feel cornered. They use predictable tactics to protect their ego and avoid genuine engagement.

Common Tactics Used

  • Repetitive scripts: They reuse the same catchphrases or talking points when they run out of real arguments.

  • Total secrecy: They hide personal details to prevent others from using their background against them.

  • Constant deflection: They change the subject or turn the focus back onto the other person.

  • Superiority complex: They act superior and insult others to mask their own deep insecurities.

Why They Act This Way

  • Fear of exposure: They worry that being vulnerable or honest will lead to losing an argument or facing criticism.

  • Low stamina: They lack the emotional energy or actual facts to sustain a real, deep conversation.

  • Defense mechanism: Attack is their way of defense, keeping people at a safe distance.

You live in a parallel universe where your reality has faded, so you have to create one. Quite tame and lame, and not very creative, to be honest. You keep talking about intelligence over and over, but I think you can see where you stand. And you talk about repetitive insults? List them for me once more, please.

He can't fathom that we've been telling the truth all along, which makes his life less than satisfying, so the jealousy rears it's ugly head with attacks on a person's lifestyle, adding the assuming and exaggerations to complete the recipe.

By the way, for everyone he labeled autistic, this is the definition. It doesn't fit me, and I'm sure not the others he's called autistic, so it appears it's just another high school insult he's not gotten past.......The repetitive insults actually fit him well, along with not being able to communicate effectively here without resorting to them continually. He really can't respond well to his name, as he's had at least 10 here already and either forgets or denies having them

Autism spectrum disorder signs involve social communication differences and repetitive behaviors. Common indicators include avoiding eye contact, not responding to one's name, delayed speech, strict routines, repetitive movements like hand-flapping, and extreme sensitivity to sounds, lights, or textures. You can review official developmental markers on the CDC Autism Guide..

I'm amazed, that just like @Hummin and @fredwiggy , you fabricate a scenario in your mind and then enact it as if it has some bearing on reality.

You fantasists really need to understand...your imagination is not my reality. It's your reality. I guess you just have brief moments of clarity before your BPD kicks in again.

The questions I asked you are normal pub questions.

Why don't you ask me, @fredwiggy? 😊

I can just visualise a timid looking girl, hiding behind her mother's skirt, geeing everyone on. Too afraid to do it herself.

Confront your fears @fredwiggy . Face me, like a man.

Your behaviour is somewhat pathological.

You talk like an angry 23yo. Your main supporter is Marin. He is about 80yo. He follows me around the forum 7 days a week like a pimple on my back. He is weird and so are you.

You live in Jomtien. Well know gay area full of Russians and old retirees. Your life outside AN is very limited.

Another scenario entirely fabricated in your mind. Pathos indeed.

How pathetic does your life have to be in order to create a scenario with no evidence to support it at all, in order to make statements about it that help to quell the hurt emanating from your sphinter?

You are an old man. Please yourself. Both you and Marin will be gone in 5 to 10 years. Feel free to waste it worrying about me.

Back in the room, @Rockyroad ... @marin seems quite normal to me. Has a partner, normal and longstanding Thai friends, family of whom he is proud, still in the kitchen creating his favourite dishes. All very real achievements.

What have you done? You seem to spend most of your time on YouTube and subsequently here, writing absolute 💩.

These are, of course, just my humble observations, made without prejudice.

I prefer to deal with the truth, rather than to confuse myself with mental gymnastics and contortions in order to avoid it.

No. You lied. Find the post or admit that you just made it up. What a pathetic character you really are. No partner and no life other than YouTube and this forum.

Everyday Rocky goes on like this. Nice way to make friends on your holiday. All this Zen talk from the angriest pubescent teen on AN. I would think about starting to deal with your mental issues as they are beginning to manifest themselves.

Some posts with inflammatory and insulting comments have been removed:

  • Be polite and respectful to other users.

  • Do not post defamatory, offensive, or discriminatory content.

  • Avoid flaming, trolling, or stalking other members.

Let me interject here and try to nip this in the bud, as it's the same scenario daily, especially from one petulant character. Try to reply to everyone with proof, and not assumptions. No insulting like teenagers but arguing like adults. Take what's said as gospel, as you have no evidence to the contrary. A couple here brag about their women, and all adults know what that means. You aren't impressing retirees with accomplishments because we all have them, as everyone gets humbled and older.

Take what a person says as their own truths, and don't try and turn them around to make yourself feel better, as it's been old for a very long time.

An internet troll's definition is known to every member here, and some are very tired of this going on daily, as it's the same few that are doing it.

No names, no nothing, and we'll let them expose themselves more. A true narcissist, and there is one here, won't be able to resist his behavior, as it's been ingrained since birth at home. Kidding aside, going after people you don't personally know and trying to make them look bad is a childish act.

I know a few here personally, talk to 7 on the phone, and get PM's a lot, all saying the same things about a few here they can't stand. We all know who they are, and the one's in charge have their numbers. Everyone gets a little out of hand here at times, but they can't stop. This forum is a good thing to have, but we don't need weirdos interacting with decent members with their constant petulant actions. Ignoring the trolls is good advice, as well as pointing them out for those who don't yet know them. Let them self destruct

It is a choice to stay here!

And if there is no grown-up home, we can choose to leave. Nothing worth fighting for, really. Not as it is now. Talking about expectations, sharing information and stories, has become a place to cultivate negativity and, at worst, insult each other.

I would say this thread itself shows what I came for and what I got. 😅

What it shows is that you chose a path of off-topic argument. We had an opportunity to agree or at least to not disagree earlier. But you could not see it. You saw only mistrust and negativity.

Now you claim that the negativity came from the forum. NO, it came from you. Until you realise this and admit this and are true to yourself, you will be destined to make the same 'mistake' again and again.

Do you want that to be your destiny or would you like to change it?
