Chatroom Rudeness :(

[Guest]

I've only been in the chatroom twice, both times people talked to me and it was great - not everyone spoke to me but a lot of people did and it was nerve wracking! I felt like I had to answer everyone back and I just didn't know what to say. I am not a great typer or very computer literate so I kept popping in and out with no control over it...... I felt like I was upsetting everybody because it was like, "Hello", "Goodbye", "Where did you go?" By the time I actually logged out for real I was a basket case. I decided that was my problem not anyone else's so I never went back. Sooooooo...I just wanted to say if someone is rude, it could be as simple as they don't know what to say or do, or how to do it fast enough!

Hi can't dance ,
I doubt if more than 2 people even know me in the chat room!!!

I used to go in there, quite a bit, but I have only popped in there around twice in the last 6 months, or maybe not that much!!!

I laughed sooooo hard when I read your posting because you sound sooooo much like me!!!

I think everyone is overly friendly and I when I pop in, it is usually to observe not actually chat!!!

I barely know anyone in there!!! So, I usually would pop in and back out...Like hello and goodbye!!!

I do understand there are lots of people who are probably in there daily and nightly, so it is "perfectably" understandable to me, why they seem to chat more amongst themselves...They know each other soooo much better, than they would know me!!!

I must say a couple of times, I have needed to chat and every single time they have gone out of their way to be "respectable" and "helpful" to me!!!

I do feel like there is a lot of "cliques" going on in there, but like I said, I totally understand that one, since they know each other sooo very well!!!

I just felt the need to respond to this one, since you sound sooooo much like me, and this struck me as very funny!!!

Have a great night everyone!!! May God richly bless each of you!!! Cloie

HI Mrs T Bones!!! Been missing you.......Thanks for the kind words once again. I guess it is kind of funny but I was really frantic in the chatroom. I was sweating when I got out of there! It was WAY to much stress since I went there to get UNstressed. I'm glad someone can relate - anyway, glad to see you - have a blessed night

[Guest]

Aaaww cant dance, It feels sooooo good to hear from you too!!! One never "realizes" how much they miss others, until they are away for a while...and I sure have missed you, my dear friend!!!

You have a "blessed" night your self!!! I pray that all is going well with you!!! Cloie

I do go in the chat room quite a bit to try and help out where I can since so many wonderful people have helped me out over the time I have been in there. But I will say as of late it is a different place alot of things going on and alot of people who can be so very rude. I do love to meet new friends and people and I know most of you on this thread and love when you pop in to say hi but I do understand it can be a very stressful place I think if used for anxiety and stress and sometimes to laugh it is good when used for judgement and rudness it is not so good. So I am sorry if any of you have ever felt unwelcomed in there I go there alot and sometimes get the cold shoulder but it is a great place to practice our skills sometimes it helps to be less effected by people who want to effect others. Just my two cents but I love to see you all on the forums too this is an awesome place for support. Susan I hope you come back in and visit from time to time I miss you and all of you if I am ever there and you pop in I would love to chat with you. I hope you are all well and making great progress with your anxiety/depression so many kind and wonderful people here they mostly outweigh the not so nice ones. I hope lol
Love you guys
God bless xoxoxo
