Sometimes I lie awake at night in bed and I ask, "Is it all worth it?" And then a voice says, "Who are you talking to?" And another voice says, "You mean, ' To whom are you talking?'" And I say, "No wonder I lie awake at night."--Charlie Brown </font color=purple>

I think I came to the wrong board. Or maybe I don't understand. I wanted to share kindness and understanding.

Ian,
It was me who thought you were being rude in calling hugs fake and stupid. We can stop - hey that is not a problem at all - but what I thought was that there was a nicer way of asking instead of insulting what I do. You don't have to change at all for a "bunch of strangers" as you put it...geez....excuse us for trying to offer support to you since you asked.

I ,for one, am not going to respond to any more of your posts. I think that you have way too big of a chip on your shoulder.

Hi Ian: I really was just joshing around with you in an affectionate sort of way about the hugs. I know it's hard not to lash out when we're hurting, but others here get their feelings hurt, too. I wasn't trying to disrespect you or your wishes (about the hugs) - honestly. Heather & Pebs are really caring people, so I hope you won't disrespect them either, OK? Your friend, Peanut

please do not leave, some people just do not understand when we give "hugs" it is for support, and that is all..
Read some of mypost and some of the others on this fourm, you will see hugs being given daily if not in most post....

You know I was first a bit put off by the internet hug thing. Didn't quite know how to react. Still don't to be totally honest. Can't really see myself giving an internet hug...and I am big on hugging!!! I guess you may just get to the point where the internet hugs are all you get. Been quite a while for me since I have had a real hug. Miss them a lot........
