Be honest: Have you ever criticized someone for having a different lifestyle than you?

Question

And if you have, do you regret it now?

I don't want to hear about whether someone has done it to you. If that's all you're going to talk about, please restrain yourself.

Answer 1

not me. if your happy, i'm happy for ya

Answer 2

Emo's, who hasn't!

Answer 3

Never

Answer 4

I have, but it depends on how I did it that I would regret it. I have my opinion and I try to be gentle when saying it, but I have been rude before and I have regretted it.

Answer 5

I have found myself to be very closed-minded toward those who are poly-amorous.

Answer 6

No i haven't....because I feel everyone has a right to their own LIFE...not mine...

Answer 7

To their face, no.  I guess I am a bit cowardly.  But I get really sick of parents who don't give a rip about their children and have little to nothing to do with them and criticizing parents is typically not thought very highly of.  It is sad when your child's teacher knows more about your child than you do...other than academics of course.  Don't get me wrong, 95% of the parents of my students are wonderful...some may be a bit too involved.  But I would rather have a parent being upset at me because I forgot to remind her/his child to spit her "drainage" out rather than swallow it when sick, than a parent I have only met once by speaking with over the phone with only after multiple attempts of contacting her/him....all dang year!

Answer 8

I have only because I was raised in big beautiful houses and got every purse, pair of shoes and Ipod I could ask 4 but I learned not everybody is as lucky as me and you shouldn't put somebody down 4 it and I regret it unless it was called 4.

Answer 9

NOPE I believe if some one is happy and not hurting anyone I don't have any right to complain.

Answer 10

No  don't  I criticized others for having different life style from me, I mind my own business and I hope they mind their own business too. " Live and let live" . Rio,I have seen a co-worker having an affair with another man at work and I know the husband very well ,sometimes I met her with her husband  in some store. My co-worker and her BF goes home together in the morning,they work graveyard. I heard from the grave vine that the" do"it in her house while the hubby is at work he work day shift .I was wondering why the little kids doesn't question why uncle is in mommy's and daddy's room.  I have no regrets minding my own business.

Answer 11

Unless their lifestyle interferes with me, I usually leave it alone.

Although I do bash the emos from time to time.

Answer 12

I TRY not to, and I usually succeed. I occasionally slip up and make a comment or two about it.

I'm pretty good about keeping quiet around that particular person.

Answer 13

I have, but gently, when I've seen that someone's lifestyle is needlessly making themselves or others unhappy.  Sometimes it has helped, and sometimes it hasn't.

I regret doing it when it didn't help, because I expended energy on someone who wasn't worth it.

Answer 14

Answer 15

good question.

Answer 16

Yes, a friend of mine turned out to be a swinger and I think s*x is a sacred act so it made me look at her differently, I rarely speak to her now.

I don't regret it because I'm not into that- the way I found out is she approached me about my husband and me having s*x with her and her husband. I was grossed out. It's definitely not something I'm gonna try before I say I am against it :p

Answer 17

Yeah, I probably have.  Yeah, I guess I regret it.

Answer 18

i have and i regret it.

Answer 19

I probably have without even realizing it.  

I have criticized people who complain about their lifestyle, but make absolutely NO effort to change it.

Answer 20

Yes. I think we may all be guilty of this. I do in a form of "advice." But it's all the same I think. Do I regret it? No. I don't think so. I truly believes that if I cared enough to say something, I only want the best for them. It is their choice to listen. I don't judge, but everyone is a critic.

Answer 21

Yes, but it was my own mother...because I didn't like what she was doing to me. I criticize her views too. I hope to not become like her.

Answer 22

Yes I have but I was really immature. I do regret it.
