A post you remember making during your early days on the forum

[mintymint]

Okay guys and girls, time for a trip down memory lane, especially for us older members Look back and find a post you made that you remember, like, or that just left an impression on you from your early days here on the forum. It could be your absolute first post, your intro thread, anything from that time when you were still new and learning the ropes

Here's mine:

I don't know why you assume all the quiet girls wind up with *********s. Are you saying that these loose girls are getting all the intelligent, chivalrous men? There is a price to pay for these girls who define and value themselves through their sexuality and ability to attract men. I've known girls like that who face massive insecurity in other areas of their lives and just gravitate back to men because it's a safety zone where they will always find acceptance. It can be a real hindrance when they try to find a sense of self later on in life. I've also seen it affect their ability to have more serious committed relationships. I'm just saying that there can be a downside to that kind of behavior.

As for strip clubs and escorts... hehehe... not as easy for some of us as you might think As a "quiet guy" I can see myself at the helm of the first manned mission to mars before I can picture myself doing... ummm... yah.

And I've always thought that as we move(inch?) towards "gender equality" that the guys would end up with the short end of the stick re: sex. I mean, all things equal, you girls will totally have the upper hand. Women may want sex, but men WANT sex. But for now, yeah, women do get screwed over by the ****/stud double standard. Although honestly, both men and women help to propagate that double standard.

As a practical matter, do the guys know you're out there? How quiet are you? It's always hard to get someone to consider something they don't know exists.

And there are many men who don't "just want sex." However, sex is almost always an important part of a relationship for guys. It just is. That doesn't have to degrade the rest of it.

That's kind of embarrassing :club:

I'm inclined to say the posts from established members welcoming me to the forum.

Three grils, I can't choose either

Not sure if this one was within the first week... but, I remember it.

"Karma owes me big and I plan on cashing it in next year "

Everything bad I have done in my life.

Everybody who got hurt, just because of having a friendship with me or just because they talked to me. You know I am not good in comfort talks but still I have tried my best and yet I failed, please forgive me for not being there when you needed me most.
My parents who are getting pissed at me very badly, every moment I stay with them, I m hurting them more and more. I couldn't meet up your expectations, though I tried.. I am sorry. My friends in real life, all those who I have ignored for a long time, I am sorry. Those who I have had a fight with, hurting them, I am sorry. My friends online, whom I had a fight with, those who care very much, I am sorry for hurting you. All the girls I have flirted with, both online and in real, I am sorry for hurting your feelings. My colleagues and former bosses, I have talked behind your back gossiping too much, I am sorry. Please forgive me world, forgive me for being such a loser. Thank you for letting me live for all these years. I am sorry for being such a loser, I have tried and am still trying hard to not be one, but I fail over and over again. Sorry for letting you down. I am sorry. Forgive me.

Not one from the early days cos then I will have to dig up posts from previous account and thats a pain

Ah yes the grils thread. That was quite the problem that he had. A number of grils interested in him and he was rating them similar to cuts of beef. Okay actually just scaling them.

 

[Sci-Fi]

The bully threads come to mind. Some of the most expressive and opening up posts where made in them.

 

[EveWasFramed]

omg I remember that. I laughed and laughed.

My first account deleted, I have nothing to add.

 

[Badjedidude]

I can't say I remember any of my early posts. I'd have to go back and search for one.

 

[Peter Lorre]

From the posts I made I can only remember my intro thread and that's only because it's still a bit active.

I do remember a few hilarious threads/posts and a quite a few names that I miss.

Since the number three is important to me, I chose the third thread I participated in.

We will never get along with others 100% of the time because we do not always listen and show empathy. The following contains possible reasons why we may NOT interpret others correctly:

~ they could be depressed and not fully expressing themselves properly,
~ we could have unreasonable expectations of the other person,
~ we may not want to take responsibility of our own actions and blame shift,
~ we may have (unknown?) resentment of the other person,
~ one or both may be under stress that decreases rational thought processes,
~ we may not have enough time (or unwilling) to process everything first before making a decision,
~ we may have a different meaning for the word(s) used, or
~ we may have a misunderstanding because some words sound similar, etc.

Therefore, we should always take the time and determine the context of all conversations & what the other person could be going through on a mental, emotional, and/or physical level; because at the end of the day, we can only control ourselves.
