I'd like to have a conversation, if you don't mind...

[Mr. Scorpio]

I'm only posting this here because there isn't a corresponding sub-forum for what's on my mind, I looked.

Actually, there is one, but I'm not sure that it's appropriate for me to enter that space with this concern.

Either way, it's about me. Moreover, it's about perceptions about me by others.

So, if you don't want to be bothered, I understand. However, I'd be willing to take it to DU Mail, if that's a preference.

I'm serious.

[Harker]

1. Are you inquiring of someone in particular?

What's up?

[Mr. Scorpio]

3. It's not about anyone else on DU

It's just about be.

Trust me, this is not gossip at all. Merely something about myself that I want to ask and I'm not really sure, how to process it.

[Harker]

4. What can I do to help?

[Mr. Scorpio]

7. I just posted it below.

I'd like your first impression before I ask questions.

[Harker]

9. My first impression is that Sugar Beats

comes across as difficult to communicate with openly.

They seem to think they know more about you than you do.

[Mr. Scorpio]

12. I was a little confused by the "Knock it off tweet."

I was wondering if there was anything that I posted there that was inappropriate

[Harker]

14. Nothing inappropriate from you. At all.

They'd go straight to my ignore list.

[Polly Hennessey]

2. Yes, what's up. I have no problem with you.

[Mr. Scorpio]

6. First, off, I want to post a conversation that I just had on Twitter that had me thinking.

Here are the tweets:

15. He's yankin' your chain

by obliquely accusing you of being gay. Of course you know that and you're trying to get him to admit to it.

You've wasted enough time on that troll.

As for the question in the OP: you're okay by me. I like your posts and think they are interesting.

[Mr. Scorpio]

18. If that person had accused me of being gay...

All I would have said is that I'm actually not gay, but... I'd just ask them if I should be offended by and accusation of being gay and why. Then I'd retweet their accusations to my gay cousin and we'd both have a laugh about it.

24. Weather you know it or not...You are one of the "very best in this whole fricken room..

Take that one...and it is the total truth.......hattip for you ...

[Ohio Joe]

25. I've had similar conversations... A variety of different topics but the same pattern

IRL, on twitter, on gaming forums I participate in and even right here on DU... Today

It used to be almost an obsession for me to figure out WTF was going on but I now try to walk away if the person does not want to just spill it and be plain in a post or two.

You're a good egg, try not to worry about internet people being a little crazy.

[sarge43]

27. I think you're being trolled by a self important faux smart ass.

S/he isn't worth your time or attention. You're right; attraction is highly subjective.

Me, I like British posh. I loved and married a man who was anything but.

[Skittles]

5. spill it, dude

yes INDEED

[Croney]

8. I think you were trolled by a person whose favorite emoji is

the white supremacy sign.

[rsdsharp]

10. My thoughts, for what little they may be worth:

Sugar Beats is an ass.

[dchill]

13. You have been pre-judged by an idiot troll.

That's my two cents. As for the picture of the guy - I have no idea what that's about. At all.

[Just_Vote_Dem]

16. I think that person was trolling you

I've read posts of yours before, I think you're a nice person, glad you're here

[Harker]

17. My only problem with you...

is that you ended "Ask Mr. Scorpio" before I came along.

[Mr. Scorpio]

19. OK...

I'll it back one day soon just for you

Promise

[Harker]

22. I'll be patient. Thanks! n/t

[MLAA]

20. I think you ran into an asshole Mr Scorpio and assholes gotta be asses 😜

💕you are respectful, interesting, sharing (I love your Halloween posts each year) and fun.

I appreciate you.

[taxi]

21. It's not you

There are people who bet on a horse if a certain hockey moves the crop to the other hand, or tell you they're saying okay with the hand signals. So the reptilian mind sees the shape of female anatomy for an instant and fear for their own manhood. He's being stupid.

[Raven]

23. I always read your posts and I find you perfectly pleasant, respectful and

transparent. You got baited by an asshole and you treated him better that he deserved. I wish there were more of you!

[zanana1]

26. Sugarbeats sounds like a jerk.
