Those little green men

Oh that page (I should never have done that one I guess ) I have moved into the money interest tonight. I feel more at home there Hey just barge in wherever you see someone you know. There are a lot of new users too and they are all 'mingling' so try it yourself too.

Mine wasn't a hidden desire to go there! It was a need, I had a purpose! That makes it different and justifiable Now I get the idea that you want to be there but need a hand to hold?

Those sensations you're talking about? That's precisely what I meant! You should try green sometimes, mysD. Not that I have any issues against yellow but well, just saying. Impenetrable - i don't even really know the exact spelling. I just let the spellchecker do its job! So how's the s*e*x page going?

Hi AK, that is very reassuring of you, so thanks a lot. Actually my discussion wasn't really limited to myLot alone. I also made mention of real life. Nevertheless, you're right, despite the alienated feeling, it should not stop me from participating.

I guess all of us need not to get into any of those negative feelings especially that some if not most of them are just self imposed! Now this advice works both ways. Feeling of alienation should not stop us from participating nor should it hinder us from going back to where we do not want to get back to unless if that spelled major trouble.

This feeling of alienation in real life is universal. I am very sensitive and if I feel that I am not wanted I will never ever get back there. Here in myLot I have yet to get that feel but I need to work a lot more to be accepted here by one and all and it is but natural. I too have my preferences and for reasons unknown I get put off by some here. Not good really. I will try not to get this feeling!

no one is perfect and we all do things that we wish later that we could retract. Don't let it affect you so much. It's just one incident. it doesn't define who you are. I am normally a very quiet and laid back person. Every once in a little while that other side of my nature will emerge. it happens.

Actually my talkativeness had been my identity for some time. Then suddenly here comes my laid back and quiet and shy personality. It feels strange sometimes!

I used to be very confident when it comes to mingling with people until maybe I went overboard and risked some friendships perhaps because of my lack of tact sometimes. Ever since I got to an argument with a classmate and she told me I was arrogant, I guess I just stopped being the friendliest person on Earth. It's surprising how people's opinions can sometimes change our personality. But I would admit it was my fault. We're friends now.

I can tell that your independence is so much your strong suit. It isn't bad to go solo if you can manage as long as you still have healthy interactions with people. Judging from what I notice on your participation here at the Lot, I think you are doing a great job. Long time, no see, my dear!

Thank-you Theresaaiza! That makes me feel a lot better. Yes I do have healthy interactions with other people. But, I still like to do my own thing. When I am by myself I get more done and learn more at the same time. Like at school. There are people beside me asking me questions about the subject, at the same time the teacher is still explaining. When someone talks in between I don't hear what the teacher is saying and I am lost. People are always thinking I know everything. But I don't! Because I listen I can get by, but if I cannot listen because someone is talking to me, then I would rather sit by myself. That is what I mean about being by myself. Lots of people think they can do everything, but always seem to need help. I don't need help because I do it on my own. When I know what I have to do, sure then I love to help others. But first I have to be able to listen! Oh well, we will see where this goes. How have you been doing? I have been very very busy. Take care, have a great weekend.

I think I know exactly what you mean. Sometimes, being with many people hovering about you during times when you needed to focus on something messes up with the concentration thing. That is why I never go on group studies because being talkative as I am, I end up messing other people's concentration too! I guess there is a right place for me at the right time. :) I have been quite busy myself. :)

I would have to agree that some groups just don't seem to be of similar wavelength as ours. And perhaps they would feel the same about other people. I guess that's one example of how unique human beings can be?

Ugggh....those spoiled rich kids! Forgive them for they know not what they do. Actually, I came from a private school where it's not breaking news to find a bunch of them. I never really got along with them, and I doubt it if they had any desire whatsoever to mingle with a simple girl like me. I had my world and they had theirs. Until now, even if during social gatherings we could just laugh off our differences in the past, I still sense that gap lurking somewhere.

That's right. The key is to test the waters for some time before diving in, right? Thanks for the response!

I must admit, when I was a newcomer, I felt like I was lost in uncharted territories. I'm thankful for people who welcomed newcomers and didn't make me feel like a little green man...er...woman! It's just funny that lately, there are discussions I wanted to participate in but it feels like I just don't seem to belong. Or maybe, I'll learn the trade if I gave myself more time.

I've made some friends here, true, but I don't think of it as a clique. Lots of new people get in. Actually, when I started here I felt kind of left out myself.

Feeling left out probably really is quite a universal feeling as I've been told. But it's great that we've finally found some circle of friends here, don;t you think?

Allow me to disagree. You really seem to be in great company here in myLot. Okay, honestly, I have kind of stalked some people so that's how I knew. Shake hands!
