Roll call 55

Have you considered someone else with a mental illness? I was actually talking with someone today who mentioned kind of liking you....

I'd feel like a hypocrite if I didn't. Whoever it is feel free to message me. Thanks for the heads up, SP.

if i known i would have gone

thanks bean!

how people get dates or friends idk.

You have to step outside your comfort zone...I meet most people online....

i believe ive been stepping outside my comfort zone a lot and i still dont meet anyone. of course i could meet people online but i feel unsafe doing that. like okcupid. you know? i already joined this support group and been keeping busy by going places and havent met anyone.

So you're going to have to meet a lot of people before you find the ones you click with...it took me like a year to make my first real friend and that was with constantly meeting people online. Just keep looking.

I know what you mean about feeling unsafe with online dating. But there are ways to be safe about it. Don't give a prospect your address or ride in his car until you get to know him. Let someone know where you are going when you meet him for a date, and when approximately you'll be back. Take your phone with you.

I haven't found anyone through online dating yet, but I do have some stories, haha. And I became friends with one girl who I just couldn't be with in a romantic sense.

So is it worth it? I'll answer you in a few months. Trying it again. lol

thanks. im looking forward to that answer!
ill take your advice too!

a year is so long wow. i mean just to meet a friend. like 1 friend. i suppose ill try. i mean do you have any site recommendations that are safe? besides okcupid? is okcupid just for dating?

im hoping that by going to school face to face at this university next year makes me some friends too.

I'm talking about meeting one friend. I met like 7 or 8 before meeting her and we just clicked the others maybe one I went out with twice she was a world traveler so interesting but our hours didn't match. Some people were too picky they wanted a friend to go out with at night in the city or something...some people were mean to their existing friends some people just didn't make an effort to do their share of keeping in touch.

There are no specific sites that are inherently safe you have to always be aware...I used craigslist and it has a bad reputation....ok cupid does have friendship settings.

School is the easiest place you'll ever meet people just set up a study group or grab lunch between classes.

Hello strangers... I've been busy trying to learn how to play Magic The Gathering.

Hi Erti....Isn't that an expensive and addictive card game or Am I confused?

I slept in today and now I'm wide awake.....I should have been in bed two hours ago....

I slept all day so now I'm up through tomorrow.

Well on the plus side we both got plenty of sleep... That's certainly not a given....I just know I need to be up at six thirty.

Can you nap and wake up by then?

I'm starting to get tired...I have cricket noises playing so hopefully I can get in a decent six hours.

I hope so too. Think of relaxing things or try to think of nothing but the crickets.

I did the same thing. My 30 minute nap turned into an 11 hour snooze. Now, I am wide awake, so I'll be until tonight. Hopefully, I can stay up for 20 hours.

That's what I've been thinking too. If I can stay up until 8 pm I'll be OK again with my sleep schedule.

I'm hoping to stay up until 8 or 9 tonight.

It is so quiet right now. It is a perfect time to compose my replies to two emails. What are you doing to pass the time?

I ate some ice cream and now I'm just reading pc and another forum and watching cartoons with the sound off. There will probably be jackhammers later and I want the quiet as long as I can have it. I love peace and quiet.

I wish the world was always this quiet. I love this time of day. It is so beautiful. The birds are already singing.
