😌☀️🌻🌼 Hi Tanya,
Run in the other direction:) You are not alone ~ thank you for sharing this sentiment.

When a comment left on a post feels transactional, I block.

My gut always questions their energy/intention. Did they come here to read and support my work or use it to redirect the attention to them?

Not polite. Rude actually. And I do not feel guilty. Because the energy feels manipulative, banking a person’s guilt and hence, reciprocity. Not playing that game.

Be polite, stay on topic. Read and support the author. Leave a comment without asking for something in return.

Thanks for dropping by, Tanya and for your kind feedback. Glad you could still laugh and see through their nonsense.
