I probably shouldn't toss this out here on a day that has started as wonderfully well as this one, but WTH... here's my antonym (negative traits) Nohari here, if anyone cares to respond... (wry grin).
Of course. It does nothing but stir up more drama and self-pity for himself. If there's no drama, there's no attention.
My guess is that he will take this one a lot harder than the other one, because this one is negative, and he emphasises and leads with his weaknesses, rather than his strengths. His focus seems to be pulled towards what he perceives to be negative, rather than the postive.
Notice that he hasn't said anything about the positive things that were said about him (a lot more of them, as a matter of fact) than negative. The focus is on the negative, even though the sample size is much smaller, and he has no way of identifying where the comments are coming from.
It's sad, because there are so many positive things about him, but he'd rather focus on the negative.
I was replying to Dawn's comment, so I addressed it to her. I general address myself to the person that I'm replying to, and specifically refer to anyone else. Since I wasn't directly responding to your post or a comment you made, I didn't address it to you.
