I was able to get into the chat rooms yesterday. I haven't had a home computer in ages and consquenctly haven't been going to chatrooms. (I do a lot of computeting at the library but they discourage chatting.) It was an experince and brought back memories when I used to chat at an old WBS chatroom called PychCentral.
I had a lot of good times in that place. I also had a lot of bad times. But I remember the good, the friendship and support. However, somehow chatting is differfent these days.
Back then, in the mid 90s I was in a very b ad place. I didn't have much of a life. That chat room became my life It was the only source of any kind of human contact I had.
It isn't that way today. I have a wonderful girlfriend in real life. I think I am in a much better mental state. Perhaps I moved on,finally grew up or something. It somehow doesn't seem all that important to me. It was still fun chatting on the comptuer with different people but I don't think I will be getting into it like I used to. For one thing I have a gf and I chat with her. I don't want to do anything that will screw up this relationship.
But still it was fun and I enjoyed it. Except for my gf I don't have any friends in real life to talk with and it is always nice to talk to people, even on a computer. I wouldn't mind making friends with people but it seems I have always had trouble in that department. I could never fit in. even my own family has cut me off.
I don't understand this. I think I am a nice person. I dunno.
