Do you practice the Golden Rule?

[Amelia G]

Do you treat others as you would wish to be treated yourself? If so, do others actually tend to treat you the way you treat them?

[Tinman]

Mostly yes, except people who u wonder what rock they crawled out from under u know what im sayin? And yes most people reply in kind but theres always gonna be some who dont, secrets not to give a toss lol

[sickybuaaaaa]

i mostly do. but usually people only take it as an invitation to treat you like shit. thats when i start to treat them like shit back. i never start with that kind of act though, even if someone gets on my nerves really bad

umm just a question related to this thread.. i dont really mind dumb people having a bad opinion about me, but something that tends to bother me is people who i believe are worth hanging out with, that have a bad opinion about me for no apparent reason(or at least that's what i think). how do you put up with that? or maybe i'm just being oversensitive?:/

[Toe Cutter]

I try. It's definitely a struggle. After being kind to people and getting snubbed or, in turn being treated rudely. It makes you want to stop trying. It also doesn't help that my faith in humanity/common sense has been shattered.

Id say 90 % of the time, yes. I sometimes find myself freaking out on my fiancee about shit, but not as bad as I used to be.

that pretty much sums it up for me too.

[Mr Karl]

no, I treat people the way I treat people, have no idea what way that is, and people treat me the way they treat everyone else.....

didn't oscar wilde make some witty comment about this subject?

[malcolm]

i try to be nice to people who are nice back and i pretty much either ignore-knock out or return the attitude to those who are cunts

[karyn]

not really but nice people make me feel more like being nice. so it works on me but i can't say i practice it myself.

[Baby_Switchblade]

More often than not, yes I do. I talk to strangers, I smile at almost every person I pass in the street, I'm usually very friendly to everybody I meet. The only time I won't be is when I am otherwise provoked.

[incog]

I treat others the way I would like to be treated but sometimes that is not the way they would like to be treated.
