I just read for quite a while before I ever posted anything. I stuck pretty much to the forum for my particular need (depression at the time), and I didn't even read general for a long time. It was easier to get to see people's personalities because I was limited in my reading.

I still stick pretty much to just a few forums, but now I come to general, too. I don't feel a need to read or answer every thread. Sometimes, this keeps me from taking time to get to know someone new, like you. That's my loss.

I didn't even know that (((((((((Confused)))))))))))) meant hugs for the longest time!
