How come I just want to make friends and nobody likes me

Hey @ArraDreaming , do you mean on the forums, or in real life? What makes you say that nobody likes you?

Hey @ArraDreaming ,

I cannot speak for in real life, but I can speak for on the forums.

What I've noticed is that you are really social and chatty on the forums. You are fun to talk to and be around.

We then expect the same for the next time we see you.

But the next time, we read posts such as "I'm angry" "I'm a loser" etc...

We then don't know what to say.

Also, it may be that members don't know when it's a good day for you and when it's not?

What do you think?

What about providing support to new members who come on the forums @ArraDreaming ?

I think the hardest thing is that once members are feel unsafe ONCE, it may take a lot more work to regain one's trust. What do you think? @ArraDreaming

I'm thinking along the lines of this example. A child is scared of a dog who has just barked at them. From then on, it takes a lot for a child to learn not to be scared. Some of this is through safe exposure. The more they are exposed to safe experiences with the dog, gradually they may feel safe enough to interact.

This is just one example that comes to my mind.
