Debating and politics..

Hello everyone of the chess.com family. I will like to say that I am a big person against politics and debating 100%. Well because I cannot handle it at home, the fact that people ignore emotional people and not ignore a way that you could get exposed really easily from arguing. In fact, I'll admit that people debating, I kind of understand them. I'm just saying, that a lot of the emotional people like me are ignored. Only going to the political people. I've experienced the same thing as a student in high school. 

Thanks for reading this.

Sounds like you should pursue peace, Kaiping. No need to debate politics if it tears you up too much emotionally. If you are emotionally sensitive, you will be better able to relate to emotionally sensitive people. It may be good to expose yourself to a little of politics and debate but you should probably discontinue or disengage whenever you feel it is stretching you too much.

My wife is also an emotional person. She shies away from debate and arguments (except with me because she knows she will win - lol). But she is also interested in politics. She expresses her views with great emotion whereas I use mostly logic.

Try a little of things that are difficult but know when to back away. That way you can grow without getting torn up emotionally.

I hope my post will be of some help to you, my good friend.

Btw, I can get too emotionally involved in debating politics or religious issues. I realize my job is not to change people but to love them as Christ would have me love. I should present the truth as I know or believe it to be but not become argumentative. Many people are abusive to those who disagree with them. Try to avoid those types of people. It does no good to play their game and stoop to their level.

God bless you, my friend!

I'm ok with drama. I just don't like the politics and debate discussions.

Kaiping, you have every right to engage or not in any conversation or topic you choose and that decision is yours and yours alone and beyond reproach. This is a freedom you should feel very comfortable excercising as we all enjoy the same rights of choice
