My children are the only ones I see each day. With other people I have almost no contact. So I like to come here, enjoy reading what other people have to say and sometimes I write something too. That’s it.
I’m not interested at all in having friends in my life. I’ve had terrible experiences with friends lying against me about things I never ever did. So I’ve only kept a very few and even with them I have very little contact. I’m not used to being around other people anymore either, since the last months of 2004, I was pretty much alone.
So I go online to talk. If I ever do befriend someone, I still don’t take that friendship a step further. I keep a distance from everyone in real life as well as friendships online. Online friendships remain just that, internet friendships, just nice people to talk to and nothing more. Same in real life, even if I do talk to someone in real life I still keep that person at a distance. When someone really needs help and if it’s in my capacity to help, then I do try to help, but even then, I don’t take the friendship a step further.
It’s my own choice based on what family and people outside family did to me. I’m not going to discuss that here further. It’s completely off topic.
Anyway, that’s why I come here. I don’t want anything from anyone, just talk now and then.
What do you people like about this website?
New Beginning… Im sure you’ll feel pretty welcome on this site. . .. its a great site that allows u to share, discuss, highlight any issues/ matters/ points of view…GS I feel is like my family…whilst we all do have families.. spending so much time on this site and having gotton to know people.. it is another online family but without the agro of family politics and such like!!!..I like the camaradrie between Guppies and Guppays…the spirit of the site ( yesterdays Azaadi celebrations were a fine testimony to this !!) but more importantly i really am beginning to value the REAL people on the site…whilst im fully aware this is a cyber/virtual community, this community is actually real.. people that have the same feelings, emotions and behaviours as I do and more…Im sure you’ll be able to see these things for yourself…enjoy!!!
I’m not interested in online friendship either because I don’t believe in them. You can talk to people here or even call them your “friends”. The truth is they are just people who don’t even exist ( that’s how I think unless I can see them). I came here when my life was at its worst. I came here to keep my mind off things and it helped.
