How often do you type an answer but then decide not to post it for some reason? Am I alone on this one?

I do that sometimes.

I do that alot. Usually with things that I find funny/acceptable but then before hitting submit realize others won't. Sometimes I'm about to admit too personal stuff and won't hit submit for that reason. Buy yeah it happens.
-
fairly often...If I start to think my answer is to crass or jaded then I stop and dont response
-
I find myself doing it occasionally. It can be a good thing!:)
-
Ur not alone, i do that sometimes too.

Nope, you're not the only one. Probably happens to most of us now and then. More likely to happen for me if my answer is getting too long or complicated. Or I realize partway through an answer that I really need to think about it a bit more. So I jot down the ques number - do other things - and come back later to write and post an answer. Most of the time I just post though. I do try to "think twice" before hitting "submit", but know I've always got the EDIT function available to me on answers. What's not "fixable" are comments. (no edit key) So, have to be careful about what to post. For those, I "might" delete/cancel vs post sometimes.

definitely not alone on that one. i feel like there are a lot of people that cant take jokes or sarcasm.

I think most the time I reread my answers 3-4 times before I hit submit. Sometimes the firsth thoughts that come to mind are the best ones...not always though. I have gone back and done a couple of edits because someone took my answer the wrong way. I look at it like this, we are all asking for opinions on here. One persons opinion may be stronger than anothers. That is what I want to know...everyones opinion good or bad. But thats just me...lol. My boy has been asking about you and your girl. Bday comming soon and he wants you guys there.

More often then we.....Oh heck!!....never mind.....delete...

I do this all the time. I type and type a response and then I read what I typed and then I realize, people can take it the wrong way since they really do not know me well enough and most would rather assume you meant it the way they read it and a heated discussion begins. OR they just downrate you without offering an explanation.
-
I do it too. I think hey I'm going to get DR'ed for that so I let it go.
-
I do this for about half of my answers. Sometimes I read what I wrote and realize that the answer just wasn't very good. I then can't think of anything better and just give up.
