Hmmm, that's odd because he seemed like he was fitting in the last time I was on here. It's always amazed me that there are people who have a hard time NOT getting banned from forums. lol

He is just easier to tolerate from afar.  Now we can all enjoy that advantage.

IMO (o=observation in this instance lol), people who are banned once, usually don't learn...and he was banned like a while ago when I came back to posting here, I remember. And then he came back and sort of morphed into someone totally different. He seemed to fit in. Not judging lol but while some people deserve second chances, when it comes to bans, most who have been banned ...ruin even their second chance.

I let my feelings get hurt so easily. I feel so pathetic. I feel close to my friends quite quickly.

Not everyone who says they're your friend, IS your friend. I've learned that. It takes time for true friendships to evolve, it's not something that can happen quick. You can like someone or enjoy their company quickly, but that doesn't make a friendship. Just sayin, my words of wisdom du jour.

I'll be sticking around for Mafia and hell, in all honesty I probably won't succeed at pulling myself away from AF but I'm gonna try. I thought I was a valuable member of the community but nowadays I get compared to the troublemakers when I struggle to not respond to them... even though I've always been that way. I don't understand it. I'm no different to I've ever been and I feel like most people used to like me here. Now I just feel so worthless and I don't understand it. I don't want to stick around if I'm bad for the community. It's going to be hard to quit though. I'm not going to pretend I'm gonna be successfully quitting. I'll probably struggle to stop posting. I'm gonna try though. And I'm definitely going to play Mafia when my ban ends.

Tired of some of my friends drifting away too. I just thought that internet friendships could be meaningful too. They always were to me. I feel so depressed.

Love you, squirrel. Thank you for not giving up on me. I'm sorry that I'm not always around. I promise that when I get through this, I'll make it up to you.

I would never give up on you. I don't give up on people. Especially friends as awesome as you.

I was just worried about you and worried I'd said something wrong. I'm a silly squirrel/turtle.

I Skyped you

Evie, internet friendships can be meaningful. One incident where a mod made an off-hand comment does not make you not valuable to the community. I wonder almost if you have really specific expectations for your friends and are let down if they don't fit that mold. Some people make sarcastic comments, even if they like you. Some people let communication lapse, not because they don't like you, but because they have busy lives or aren't as communicative as you are. Ultimately, it's up to you to take people as they are. Anyway, I don't want to get too into it because I don't think it's healthy for you to dwell on it or for me to try to reassure you.

Thank you so much Shell.

It's definitely not healthy for me to dwell on it. I think it's very good for me when people reassure me though because it makes me feel valued and cared for when I'm in a depression. I'm easily cheered up

Just sorry I'm such hard work

But for how long?

Pretty sure he wouldn't be too hard to recognize.
