i stink... i stink really bad. I am invisible and unvaluable and not even worth anyone's time. I am weak, unrespected, dirty, ruined and ugly. I am a wimp, vulnerable, easy victim, over-reactor, dull and retarded.

furthermore.... i am fat and unattractive... Any man in his right mind wouldn't want me. I think they call people like me faghags. I am a faghag. I thought the gay men were safe and were my friends... but they are just used me last night like other men have used me. I am hated and despised... I am 41 and no one wants me. I am ugly and retarded.

((((ozzie)))) ((((serenity))))) Thanks
ozzie... i'd love to have you as my friend. I feel honored. Serenity... thanks for the affirmations. This morning I am in a place that I can accept them better. I finally had to knock myself out with a couple of drinks last night and go to bed early. not the best coping mechanism, but better than the other alternatives I had in mind to relieve pressure. Venting the negative did help temporarily. I think it was better than bashing my head... still... it's along the same line of coping as bashing my head would have been. I don't have to walk around with a bruise on my forehead at least. They call undattractive and desperate women who hang around with gay men, faghags. It is becoming apparent that if I hang around in my friend Mark's world, I will be labeled a faghag. It's an attrocious label. I just learned of it myself and was appalled. Then I realized I fit the mold and do not want to wear that label. I hang around a lot of gay men.... not because I am hopeful to get them for marriage, but because I just seem to have a pattern of being best friends with people in the gay community. I have no idea how it happens. I have a theory though. All the men I pick are safe and unavailable. If they are available to me, I am frightened. OK... so much for that topic. Thanks for the affirmations. *HUGS*

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Willow}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} I think it is important to get those negative thoughts out of you head and onto the paper. That way you can attack them, burn them, delete them and finally replace them with good thoughts. The sweet thoughts you deserve. As for it being another headbashing, I don't believe this is true. You were expressing your feelings. Getting them out AND you put them here were anyone could use them as a way to hurt you. That takes guts. I know we are a safe group of people who would never purposefully hurt one another but there is always that danger and you had the courage to put it out there on the table for us all to see. AND you kept from hurting yourself for a little while. You did good. Another Big Hug {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{willow}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} As for my feelings about those words, I don't think you need to take on any of those lables. You are not a Faghag because that is a derogatory word indicating that being gay is bad so being a friend to gay men is bad. I don't believe either of these things so in my world there is no way you could be a faghag. As for the things about your looks. I got to know your one eye which was beautiful then you graced us with your whole face which matched the eye very nicely. I wish you would put your picture back on below your name again.
Now take care, Love, Carrie <font color=green>Not knowing when the dawn will come, I open every door.--Emily Dickenson |

I have been thinking about you all weekend and hoping you are doing better today. I have never heard of that word faghags and I think it is awful that such a word even exists. ![]() Keep smiling hun and being as strong as you have been. I am very proud of you for how you are overcoming all of what is happening with you. Be proud of you too ![]() ![]() Heather ![]() "Life is the art of drawing without an eraser." ~~author unknown

((((HUGS)))) Heather and Zen.
I am getting up on my feet today. Went to work. Talked things through more with my best friend. He told me that the other guy caused a lot of other problems that night. he's not going to associate with that man anymore. I feel so fortunate to have you all here and to have my friend who is standing up for what is right. I had a horrible weekend, but my week will be better. I told my best friend I wouldn't be using that word anymore. It's caused me grief ever since I learned it is used in the gay community to describe women like me who hang out with gay men a lot. I think i'm not "that word" and would rather not have ever learned the word. before I knew that word I was just dear friends with them... then I learned that word and it made me worry about that and made me feel cheap. Zen... you are right... it's a horribly derisive word. I won't use it anymore.

Willow,
I saw the picture of your eye way back when I was new on this site and you were off hiding in your cave, and I thought that's a really beautiful person. Honest, I did. You are beautiful. You would have to be, right, aren't you my long-lost twin sister I never knew I had? ![]() I'm glad you're here, and glad that you are going to have a good week.
