killamch89 Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 I've always heard that keeping an open mind is a virtue, but I'm curious if it can sometimes cause problems. Are there situations where being too open-minded can lead to negative consequences, like being easily influenced or losing a sense of identity?

The Blackangel Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 An open mind is a great thing, but it can also easily lead to becoming a victim. If you’re too open minded, it can lead to you being used and abused by people you thought cared about you because you gave the an undeserved benefit of the doubt. There is too much of a good thing. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a saying in Daoism that balance is essential to everything in life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight Plug Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 (edited) My sister is experiencing mental health issues including feeling paranoid all the time. You see, social workers know she's pregant. She had a real barmy years ago to do with her other kids. The social gets off on lying about people. The courts are a joke in Scotland. I've had dealings with them myself. Her ex partner cheated on her this year and even admitted their son was put up for adoption. But I did tell her not to go back to him. This is the crap someone is in for if you fall for a man's false act. Edited June 19 by Knight Plug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight Barida Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 To be honest, I would rather want someone that I am dealing with to be honest with me. Tell me what exactly is the issue instead of keeping quiet on me. That is exactly how I would want to build relationships with people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortie Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Being open-minded is not a bad thing and is very much beneficial but there are times when having an open mind could lead to some issues. I have always been afraid myself to have too much of an open mind as you never know how people could react or how they will treat you going forward.

Trust me women are often a lot more deceitful. With men, you know immediately what they're after. Sex. With women, it's much more difficult to tell when you're being played. We don't go in strictly for sex the way men do. So there's no telling what a woman is going to do to you to manipulate you for what she wants. But considering that my tits and pussy are all men in my past have ever seen, I have no use for them. Girls you can keep them men all for yourself. I'll stick with women.

Knight Plug Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 (edited) I think most of the escorts on removed by moderator are fake, and have a bad attitude. From those sites being amok with scammers to just delusional spring daisies having a mean-spirited demeanor, or findom dommes wanting simps to play sugar daddy for them, it's gotten to be a waste of time looking for intimacy online. Even a lot of dating sites are known for their various frauds and carrot dangling tactics. Edited July 13 by Shagger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyng Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Well yeah, being open-minded doesn't mean you automatically believe anything you're told. It just means you're willing to consider anything, and willing to entertain any idea - but then, you apply the proper scrutiny fairly to all ideas. Basically, you should be open-minded - but not so open-minded that your brain falls out 😛 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debashis Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 I've been an open-minded person all my life and I must say it has helped me a lot in all kinds of situations in life as I am someone who is open to taking suggestions from everyone but finally do what I feel is the right thing to. Sometimes it might be one of their suggestions, sometimes it might be completely different from what everyone suggested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
