Guest guest Posted October 3, 2000 Report Share Posted October 3, 2000 I have always been the kind to 'pick up strays', taking in and trying to help friends in'need', thinking I could help and make thier lives better... and eventhough I have always tried *not* to, I usually ended up getting hurt, or regretting even trying to help in the first place... -those- people like taking all you have to offer and never looking back... so I feel like I am always fighting my instincts of don't get too close, or lean on anyone cuz you'll get stomped. As a result, my old high school 'class clown'ness (really was nominated class clown!), turned into a timid, nervous, goon. Always afraid to give too much, always afraid to ask too much. But (and this *is* a big butt ;-), You guys have brought me back to feeling supported, feeling able to reach out, (and getting warm responses , and mostly brought me back to being able to genuinely care about people without being too afraid... unexplicable thankfullness to have found you all... thankful to have you all in my life... thankful to be a part of yours... (dum..dum...duuummmm) NEVER TO HIDE AGAIN.!;-) thank you~ love you~ Loriann Re: I got a date! LONG...

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2000 Report Share Posted October 3, 2000 Hey Sweetie: You are so much a part of this warm and loving family already that if you didn't converse with us we would be wondering where you were. Do not mistake how important you are within this family. Your posts are kind, loving, supportive and helpful. I know for me that I am pleased to hear that we have helped you to regain your trust in people and I also know it is because we are such a special group of people filled with caring and giving. It is to bad that the rest of humanity cannot be the same. Oh well I will stay with the loving and caring folks here and the rest of them are the real losers as they will never know the joy and friendship of the good people here. Love and Huggles Tiger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
