When you make a response,do you always write from your point of view?-elaborated

Kala Hi! I normally try to view the situation from overall point of view and secondly from other's the point of view. I try to put myself in his/her shoes and imagine, how s/he would have felt when s/he landed in such a situation. Lastly, I also add my own experiences and thoughts to the discussion. I try to post my response on the core issue of the discussion and try not to say sundry or irrelevant things, not connected with the discussion.

Hi Kala.....well my responses to discussion depends on the content and requirement of the situation and very often I chose from any of the above mentione options .There are some discussions where I frankly give my opinions.But there are discussions seeking opinions to certain situations and I comment keeping in mind the other person's requirement.But often I come across general discussions and even if I have no personal experiences I try to comment from my knowledge acquired through reading books or from other people's experience....Also while responding to religious or national topics I try to be cautious so as not to hurt anybody's sentiments or beliefs.........

If it is very necessary, then I elaborate. Or else, I respond to the point. I would not want mylotters getting bored of reading long responses.

I take making response as a challenge for myself. I respond based on my own viewpoint. That's what we are supposed to do, isn't it? Give our opinions and views. We may agree or disagree with the other person's view point, but that is, in my opinion, not really critical unless the poster is asking if we agree or disagree to his proposition.

i write what i feel is right. i cannot be influenced by thoughts and views of others which i cannot follow. sometimes it hurt others, but then truth will hurt. my idea of being little hard in my reply is to make the other person think rather than expect what he always been hearing. I mean to unsettle people. and I expect them to do the same to me so that i too learn from others.

Hi Kalav, If I am to respond I make the comment directly from my point of view. Ofcourse if the discussion topic is a bit too puzzling to get the gist I see one or two user respond and after I get the core I start my own point of view. Even if it were to be unpleasant I would not care and go ahead for I believe life is not always not a sugar coated pills. We need to see the bitter and ugly part too or else life would become all boring.

I just try to give my point of view always.That could be the right response in a forum I think.Likewise some one else will give his own point of view and so we are able to look into the many sides of a same issue.It is always interesting to see the kaleidoscopic views here.

I totally respond with my point of view. I always assumed this was the reason for the response. Maybe I've done it wrong for a long time..lol It's hard for me to get an overall view of the entire discussion unless it's posted in detail. I need to know all the facts, so to speak, and that usually doesn't happen. Good discussion.

I always write from my own point of view. I also read others views because some time I may not have all the facts and then form my opinion based on facts not feelings. If the subject is more about the way I feel about something then I share my feelings about a subject.

I think I do a little bit of each. I'm honest, but depending on the circumstances, I can offer an alternative perspective, even if it is not my own. I believe that most circumstances or issues can have more than one point of view and sometimes I think it's good for us to consider all perspectives.

I usually post my responses from my own point of view. I dont think I should be responding from the other persons point of view or an overall perspective. I think if the other person does not agree to my point of view he/ she can just ignore my response. That is what mylotting is all about. Listening to everyone's point of view.

Hi kala, I think it depends on the topic of discussion and what kind of answer it merits.I generally tend to answer from my personal point of view, because i wouldn't be able to know about another person's views, can only guess...sometimes it is from what i have read and heard, which is gain hearsay, but as i said earlier it depends on the topic of discussion really !

i usually make the respond based on my own point of view,my personal experience and what i will react when that situation occur to me!i am only respond to the topic that attract my attention only,not because it's so hot!

Initially the response must be from your own point of view and experience, even if that is the opposite viewpoint of the person posting the discussion. For a response to have any value, it must come from both the heart and the head. If we simply say what someone wants to hear, either here on Mylot or in the 'real world,' we are not doing that person a service - unless what they want to hear also coincides with our opinion, of course.

Of course I do. I am only qualified to give my own point of view not someone elses. I will sometime give an explanation of how or why this is my view on the subject.

i usually write from my own point of view. to me, that's what a discussion is all about. i start a discussion because i want to know what other people are thinking. if the responses are all from one point of view, then what discussion is there? also, i think the discussion starter wants to know what others are thinking right? just like this discussion, i'm sure you want to know what i am thinking about. if i were to response from your point of view or what generally people do, then there's no need for this discussion in the first place.

When I respond to a discussion I always write it from my point of view and my personal point of view. Therefore I try to respond to discussions that I can either relate to or ones that I have a strong opinion about.

As for me, I don't believe in answering something that I don't believe in. I take pride in answering my discussions and I would love to have the same kind of responses and comments back to me. I can accept different points of views and light debates, but I can't tolerate rudeness and accusations. Otherwise, I think this place is such an awesome one. Good discussion here. A lot of answers in mylot are positive and it shows how members are very happy with their current lives. Some are in the process of moving homes, some have given births, some getting attached and getting married but there are also those suffering from illnesses, sad, depressed and having mishaps. This forum site is as close to real life as possible. I get this weird notion in my head that we are all in a very big cafe and we move from one table to another discussing and chatting, laughing and etc. Of course, this is virtual and we can only see words. But I can see the tears and the joys plus laughter that come through from those words. Good discussion here.

I post my comments or anything i want to when i feel like posting to a discussion or while giving a response.I am here to share feelings experiences information so i give what i have..i never try to give responses from others point of view i express just my self or what i think of a particular aspect when it is discussed.off course i try utmost not to violate any rule or hurt any one while doing it.

When I respond to any topic I make sure that I list the pros and cons of my views. I try to make sure that the person who has posted the topic gets the information he\she wants. If I've been in any particular situation that has been mentioned I give my point of view as to what I did and what outcome I got out of it.
