well as a counselor, refree, jerk, thug... lets see what else....
...oh yeah, a man.... i can say that i have seen my share of people (not just men) who should have never been allowed to make it to adulthood... yet they did, and tho they are the reason i have a job, i still think that their actions are unacceptable...
all that being said, everyone needs to be aware of what medium they are in when things are said, because the fact is that tho most of what i post can be construed as inflamatory, it is not meant as such and for the most part it is taken as the sarcastic humor that it was intended to be....
everyone is quick to jump on those who say stuff... but the bottom line is that nothing can upset you unless you allow it to.... and yes some have valid reasons to be sensitive to some things... which is exactly why you need to realize who is saying what and more importantly how well they know you, because if they dont know you but happen to say something you are sensitive to, you cant really blame them for having "hit a nerve" by happenstance.... buy if they do know you and say something intentionally meant to upset you, then you have a valid point....
I know this is going to sound really boring but the incident with my ex-boyfriend.....he got rid of most of my friends so most of my socializing is on the net.....with exception to 3 or 4 people. You know, the shocking thing in all of this for me......the reason I haven't totally given up.........the person I thought wouldn't care I was being hurt......my ex-husband.....he's the one who rescued me and took me to a hospital.....not that I want him back cuz that's not the case....but he rescued me when no one else would. that's love! although we aren't going down that aisle again. screw that. one time was enough....lol.....anyways, i was mainly trying to get at that counselors suck and i might not need counselling if i actually had someone to talk to.
in conclusion, i think that those who get upset because i say things like "women are evil" or "women want to controll you and take your money" are overly sensitive and clearly too self centered to realize that this is meant as a joke (especially when the thread category is jokes & humor)....
and trust me, im the first one to take a shot (or 20) at myself so anyone that tries to claim i just wanna hurt people's feelings couldnt be any more wrong....

viva007: well am a bad reader
Your choice and for all I know you are dyslexic, but you seem to be able to write ok, so I would discount that idea.
Maybe you just like to say things for effect, which is your choice also..... just be aware that what you say can have an impact on others less fortunate to be as strong as you are.
Loneliness is still not the best friend of depression, however poetic you think that sounds !

As much as I'd love to stay and chat some more...it's almost 4am here and I need to rest. Insomnia sucks! Always tired but never enough to sleep. Feel free to drop me a line sometime though. I do get a bit lonely.
