Can't most of us (unless we are convicted criminals, and I hope I don't get into trouble for saying that) get along, most of the time? Why must misunderstandings fester and grudges go on..... and on... and on.......

What happened to loyalty? Maybe I read too much into it when someone calls me friend. To me, friendship means looking beyond disagreements...... and this is true in my real life and online too.....

Some things can't be mended but nothing can be mended without even trying,

I think a mistake I have made is not telling someone straight away when they trigger me. And so my response might not be so "warm" as usual.....or I react in a triggered way....... and so on............. Why? And so the bricks making up the wall of misunderstanding are built up......

People are everywhere we go... I often wish that wasn't so, and bears, horses and flowers were everywhere instead and NO people ...... I hope this will be a constructive thread re. relationships/interactions in general, and not a way of taking any subtle swipes....... not that anyone HERE has ever done that Why?

Fuzzy
Why?

I guess I'm lucky, but I can't really complain about people here, I can in RL though. I avoid people mostly, sooner or later everyone will betray you, and I have learned that the hard way!

I don't know what situation you are referring to here, or to whom, but I would kick whoevers *** that was mean to you!!! You do so much for everyone here.

Hi Fuzzy,
I understand what you mean. I am like that, too. I think you don't tell someone you've been triggered by something they wrote because you're afraid they'll take it the wrong way or that you'll look paranoid-at least it's like that for me. You know about the winky face? Do you know how long that bothered me until I had the nerve to say something about it? So, whenever even a friend would PM or respond to a post with a winky smiley face-I'd be like-what do they mean by that winky-are they making fun of me? Are they being sarcastic? And then I'd feel a little defensive and not as open as I would have if the winky face hadn't been included in their post or message. I'm sure that defensiveness must have showed through my response in a lot of situations.
Anyway, I liked what you said about how some things can't be mended but NOTHING can be mended if nobody tries. I liked that a lot. That's a very familiar territory for me.
It makes me feel like I cared more than what the other person did when they just turn and walk away without wanting to discuss it or to try to find a way of resolving the problem. It makes me wonder, am I not worth trying to resolve the issue over?
Why?
((((((((FuzzyBear)))))))))))))
I wish the world was ran by puppydogs-no sooner are they upset then they forget,wag their tails, jump on you and start licking your face silly.
Your truely caring friends will make themselves vulnerable tto you and put their hand out to you even after you MIGHT have accidently nudged it a little too hard when you were triggered. Maybe they're going through their triggery thing in response to your trigger. We are all so fragile.

i too have learnt that some people in rl are just there to see what they can get, but i have also found out who my true friends are in the past year, and there are relations i wouldn't choose half of them for friends but we are related,
i have only found nice friendly people here that's why i like it here and feel safe here, and you are one of those special people

Big hugs.......I haven't been posting much on here lately for much of the same reason. I've met soooo many people on here that are great though like you. You have always made me feel welcome and cared about and you have no idea what that has meant to me.
Hang in there,
Lori Why?

Thanks hon......I think most people here are kind, and do want to resolve misunderstandings, it's just that some of us, including me, get things "wrong" sometimes. I think most people here are "forgiving" of such things....Sorry you've been staying away from here because of anything here..... PM me any time, k?
