Life and trauma

That's totally okay. I thought it could just be added as an option if you wanted @Former-Member 🙂

@tyme thankyou ❤️

@Former-Member I was that person for the first 43 years of my life... watching people surrounded by friends and family while wondering what was wrong with me to not have that.

These days i think there was nothing wrong with me! Yeah, i was very shy and socially... awkward... but it never deserved that 'indifference' I'd always found from other people. And their loss for not taking a tiny bit of effort to look a bit deeper and see who i really was. So I'd far more rather talk and be friends with people who understand what it was like for me as they're generally just better people to have around.

By the way, when i say "watching people", i dont mean in a stalkery way. I was warned that that was bad! 🤣

@MJG017 I've been that person for my life so far, whilst I've had friends along the way it's never worked out and I've been met with so many different excuses as to why. I was always just a last resort or when it was convenient for them. There's definitely nothing wrong with you and you deserve to have friends and support just as much as other people if not more.

That stalker comment just made me laugh out loud, now I probably look like some crazy person. Oh wait I am that crazy person 🤣

@Former-Member Don't hide the crazy... it makes us far more interesting. Just be careful of that laughing out loud when you're waiting in line at the supermarket checkout... people really dont seem to like that. Especially when the have just dropped their eggs!

@MJG017 oh I do try to contain myself. I figure sometimes if I don't laugh then I'll cry. The amount of funny things I've seen people do when out and about, I've really had to fight the urge to just not burst out laughing. There's no way I could hide my crazy, I think that's come across loud and clear 🤣

Totally @Former-Member !

If you don't laugh, you cry. 🙂

@tyme exactly right. I've had my cry today. Now I'm trying to somehow pick myself back up despite this crappy situation I'm in.

Hi @Former-Member

@MJG017 often makes me laugh out loud too. I wonder if he is funny looking as well as being generally funny lol. I am glad that you had a laugh about something. Definitely don’t try and hide the crazy!

@Oaktree hello.

Honestly i think crazy is better than being normal and boring. It just gives us extra character. I mean I'm just completely bonkers 🤣
