life help: How much do you take SERIOUSLY? - Help.com

i dont take alot of people seriously, somtimes i dot take my self serously and im being serous there or am i ???
lol

No one ever takes me seriously, despite the fact I’m never sarcastic, don’t make jokes, and always follow through with everything I say I’m going to do.

thats not your fault, leave ppl to there thoughts ive learnt to ignore the bad so should you

everyone!!! i always find humor to be an easy way to get along. but everyone should be taken seriously.

so anon how was your day? and what do you mean, no one takes you seriously?

Without any signs of deception, I always take them seriously and provide them with optimum advice. I have no desire to ridicule them for any given reason. That would be very impertinent on my behalf.

I take everyone who asks for help seriously. Some people might not be serious when they post, but I think a lot of people show up here at wits end, not knowing what to do.

I try to understand the truth of people’s situations if they want help with their situation and I’m willing to help. It wouldn’t make much sense to waste my effort on what is their or my fantasy unless the fantasy was really relevant to the situation.

I mean no one takes me seriously, like no matter how many times I tell my friends to leave me alone and not try and kidnap me and make me do something they want, they don’t believe me that I just want to be left alone.

Maybe they believe that you want to be left alone but think it isn’t good for you, or they want your company for their own benefit. They could be wrong, but if they think they are doing something good for you, you should at least be forgiving and accept their attempts in the spirit in which they are offered. That doesn’t mean that you should have to do what they say, but try to value their attempts as expressions of their affection for you.

i dont really take things too seriously,guess thats why im such a loon!:)

ok..didnt read all the post sorry..
who do i take seriously with problems???
everyone!
i try to give them my upmost attention :)

well maybe you should just be completely open and honest with them. if they respect you enough. then they will understand how your feeling……

but apart from feeling sad :(…….how was your day today?

I take them all seriously as much as I want to be taken seriously when I need help.

How do you say it? Do you say it seriously?

You can like show them that you are serious about wanting to be left alone. Say, when they are with you and you want to be alone, you excuse yourself. Tell them that you HAVE to be alone and then leave them. Go somewhere where you can be alone. To be more serious, tell them “I need to be alone for a while. I need space so I hope you’ll respect that.” It would help them understand if you tell them why you need to be alone. You don’t have to be specific. You can just that you need space, or you need a breather or something.

Actually, this is more on how you carry yourself. Act serious. Make sure that you are not rude though. They are your friends so they’ll understand that every now and then, you need to be alone at that moment.

How do they not leave you alone? Do they stick to you loke glue and be around you everywhere you go?
