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.

John, give it some time. Everyone, me included feels out of place in a new chatroom with unfamiliar faces (avatars )
If you come here more often you will find that you get to know some people better and feel more at ease and you will find your place.
Ok, maybe chatting is not for you anymore. But it's worth a try to find out, right?
Hoping to see more of you,

Lucas

ps. Pychcentral? are you sure it wasnt psychcentral?

Well hello! "Welcome back" I guess I should say, though I wasn't a part of the wbs... I think you will find others here who were

It's okay that your life doesn't revolve around chat rooms now..but you are more than welcome to hang out and find a new set of friends...most any hour of any day. PC is much larger now. I recall HERE when having 8 in a chat room meant everyone was in!

Good wishes!
