Nissan 370Z Forum  

what if someone wants to drive your Z ??

I don't understand why the OP just can't tell people "no". Going catatonic rather than simply telling someone "no" is pretty weak. That's some really socially awkward BS right there.

I can count the number of people who can drive my car on one hand. As long as they regularly drive a manual, have experience in high powered cars, and most importantly - can replace the car immediately if something should happen.

I don't think I am a socially awkward BS at all. Rather I think you're a kind of annoying troller who keeps putting negative and insulting posts to my thread so often with your bad manners.

I hope you to stop replying to all my threads from now on. Actually your behaviors in this forum to me have been pretty ignorant and obnoxious.

So.. now do you like this my direct expression ??

Sometimes just keeping silence is way better than making unnecessary trouble, and at least I believe so because if you cannot understand what's wrong with you then it is pointless for me to say that.

Before you criticize others openly, you should reflect on yourself. Please stop bullying me anymore. I'll even not respond.

Now, take that backbone and use it to say no when people keep asking to drive your car.

Seriously Felix, if you're going to keep asking stupid questions, you're going to get stupid answers. Deal with it.

Hey, Chuck. Seriously, let me calm down myself first, and now I say that it is absolutely okay for me that you say any of your opinions freely in this forum.

For me what matters is your way to say a thing. Please say anything just in a right way. I got upset very much when I saw you used those insulting terms 'socially awkward BS' toward me.

Maybe it seems like you already forgot that, but now I'm still remembering a happening that last time on my another thread you kept showing sarcastic response even after I had apologized for any inconvenience sincerely to you. (at least I felt so even though it was not intended)

It drove me crazy at that time because I thought it was inappropriate, and today I got bursted based on that.

I'm now an US resident but I'm not a native American, I was not born here, what worse is that English is not my mother tongue (even though I'm trying hard to improve it by myself), and I'm from a different culture. If I do not know how to behave polite in this country, I do agree to that it is my own problem and I need to fix it up anyway.

I don't want to make any trouble. I want to believe you are a good guy in the real world, but we've never met each other and even on this Internet we can easily misunderstand each other's nuance or intention. I have always done my best to keep my manners here. I'm a human, not a machine that I do have my emotions too. I hope we do not hurt each other anymore.

About that saying 'no' - well.. in fact, personally I'm so afraid of those who get angry to me when rejected (it seems so unreasonable) or those who try to take advantage of me when I gently say 'no' to them. Some people that I had met in my life, they did not stop there even when I really said 'no' - rather they kept trying to pursuade me. It was so stressful. Therefore later I made my own decision that I'd better keep silence with my poker face and not give any response to them rather than having risk for any possible argument.

That was a story.. It's still a kind of dilemma to me. If I say 'no', a case might go worse. If I do not say anything, then it might be rude..

No worries, man. Here's the thing - you're both overthinking this and doing yourself a disservice by not responding. A simple, polite NO is all they're entitled to. Not an explanation or apology. If that doesn't convince them, a hearty "**** off" will solve the problem real quick. You don't owe them anything. Unless they pay your bills or let you put your **** in them, then they don't matter. If they no longer want to associate with you because you won't lend them your property (which you would be liable for any catastrophe regardless of them being behind the wheel) then you have removed a worthless person from your life. That's a positive outcome.
