Please, someone explain this to me!

Yes, this is the same person:

Maybe they enjoy riding you. It’s good to have a hobby.

 

[TheWritingGroup]

Added to the "Avoid this writer" list, and it showed up as a Favorite?

I think this is a dude.

[GASPS}

Oh no...

that actually makes sense. this must be it. if so, thats fantastic. I don't enjoy exposing people who don't like my nonsense to more of it.

but he doesn't have any lists. just checked. can you create hidden lists?

I had somebody follow me after he posted the following on my loving wives story: "Don't do this again."

Looking forward to seeing what they make of the story I have coming out tomorrow.

A few years ago I had someone leave a comment along the lines of "I hate everything you write. I cringe when you publish something new, knowing I'm going to have to read another of the world's worst stories from the world's least talented writer."

I wasn't insulted because it was so funny.

And then I started to feel bad that someone out there was being made to read my stuff under duress.

The “I hate everything you write,” is weird, right? Why do they read everything if they hate your work ? Masochism kink?

Hate is addictive, is my guess.

Very true…

 

[hugh_jarce69]

This is a real stab in the dark but it looks like someone has commented on one of your stories then started following you

I could be wrong though

The food here is terrible, and such small portions!

Best case it was hyperbole. They simply meant they'd sampled a handful of stories (which is probably the best way to find out if you like someone's style/kink) and hadn't enjoyed any of them. Not sure why they had to announce it, but it's totally valid. Lots of stuff on here I don't care for due to taste, and the kinks I like to write about are not for everyone.

More likely though they just didn't like that story and decided that would mean that all my stories wouldn't be enjoyable.

Of course it is possible that they really had read everything up to that point (and maybe everything I've written since lol) and felt compelled to keep reading even though they hated them all. Makes me kind of sad.

Thing is, with some people around here, it’s not infeasible…

This is such an empathetic complaint.

Like, the food is terrible for me, but what if some people love it? Surely they'd want bigger portions, not these itty-bitty ones!

Hate... leads to suffering.

Have you checked to see if he is actually following you and didn't just fat-finger the icon and then change his mind? It's happened to me both ways and unfollows don't show up in the feed.

When people sing this song about me, it goes:

People are strange
But Anthy is stranger

Completionism. The same reason why people keep clicking on threads long after they've lost interest. It's a habit, and one that's difficult to become aware of. Basically, it's "this is something I've done, so it's part of my life now and I have to keep clicking."

It's a kink - make someone read from 50 Shades, or Random Noun of Gor, while keeping a straight face...
