What's wrong with some of you people??

[Overcomer]

It appears to me that this all is a series of unfortunate events.  I, too was looking at new posters with some suspicion especially after that one person openly defied Dr G.  Whenever I saw any unregistered name I did not want to engage.  Or anyone new.  I wish we could all tell all the names we have posted under.  It would do me good to know if I was talking with an old friend with a new nickname.  I used to be Kellydckm and then I think I was Kell but both names would jump out to a relative.

And I just did not want to run the risk of someone reading all this personal stuff.  I barely EVER MENTION this board to anyone.  My two daughters know about it and think I am lame.  They cannot know how it has made me grow.  I do not think they bother but I changed my name when my oldest (Married!) daughter realized I was here.  I love Iz and her reaction was one of a suspicious nature.  Whistler if you knew her you would understand.  Tell us more about what brought you here and we will be here

Ahhhh, Whistler.

I never understood your timeline, in that you were thinking about divorce then you were being videotaped then you moved out and had no pots or pans.....

then you stated in another post that you;d been out for 2.5 months.  

All very confusing esp when you never posted a response to any of our replys during a time when we have obviouse trouble with old posters coming round pretending to be someone else, under other names.  

I'm sorry if this was all bad timing for you.  Not your fault..... you weren't singled out bc of your posts.  Everyone here has to be rather alert, and sometimes we're over alert.  You'll understand soon enough.  

If you do come back.... please resist, if you can,  any private invitations to (into Personal Mailboxes) to view etchings of Sam V's work.....

or......

get aquainted intimately.  

Just a suggestion, of course.  

Gross overblown concern for someone can sometimes be a cry for attention and adulation, not real concern for the one being complimented, IMO.

This board can be an oasis for those struggling to get out of a voiceless situation, which is indeed what it sound like you're doing.

Come back if you find yourself very lonely or lost.  

Many here have navigated through similar waters.

Sometimes another compass or two is comforting in the dark.

I hope you'll come back when you can, Whistler.
We'll sort it out together.
(Sometimes I think men just "chat" less than women and don't realize an answer is due...and when feeling generally hurt or used in life, women can sometimes keep score. Reciprocity in participation does make a difference here.)

Well said, Lighter:

Overblown concern could be a cry for attention........Wow, I am trying to memorize it.

Hops, Lighter and I are in the same channel.
