I think, after counting a total on all of my subjects, I have as many respones on them all as some others have on one subject!? I guess I should just leave well enough alone...Maybe my subjects are just not interesting enough or they are too much to ask..not sure...This normally would have no real effect on me, but being that I am, at this particular point, at the lowest I have felt in a VERY long time, it stinks! I try to help my only friend (the dog at the shelter) and I get nothing...I talk about how I could use some ideas about being in a stinky relationship (which I gave up on long ago) and nothing...am I that long winded and/or boring? Maybe I should try something/someplace else?

Try posting more thought provoking questions. In my experience it is not who posts the question as much as the question itself. This is the first post by you I've read, so I have nothing against you and am not saying that you are posting "dumb" things, but from the sound of it you are posting personal questions. This, from what I have seen, is not the place to do such a thing. On Mylot, again from what I've seen, it is best to post general questions such as "what do you think about X" or "I think X is X, what do you think?" or "I'd like to know how you like to experience X, Personally I prefer it XXXXXXX but I know some people like it XXXX, XXXXX " and stuff like that. You've got to give people room to respond to what you say, or make it especially interesting in some way..... Of course, I've got about the same number of posts as you, so my perspective thus far could be COMPLETELY wrong lol Dan

Thank you for your thoughts....I have been posting personal stuff...lots going on in my life that has me completely distracted...No job, no money, no home...don't know if you know that deal, but it certainly has a way of messing your regular thinking into a maze...Anyway, I do think about a lot of other things...unfortunately, just a bad time for me I guess

It takes a while to be known on Mylot. There are certain people who post many discussions and answers each day. They develop a following. There are also groups who only respond to their friends' discussions. And then there are people like me who never get the hang exactly. If you check my profile you will see that I get very few responses to my discussions, even though I have been a member for over a year. So I seldom post one but I have a lot of fun responding to other people's discussions. So hang around a while and see what you like best, posting discussions or responding.

Thanks for your thoughts...Kinda having a hard time these days anyway...I wrote about being unemployed forever and all and that has definitely taken my positive ideas and attitude away from me...it's so hard knowing what would be interesting and what to say and all, but it's good to know I'm not the only one....
