In reply to Seems I always have 2 cents lying around, posted by partlycloudy on July 20, 2004, at 14:30:36
>>>I think also that it's very telling that the Psych board gets its knickers into a twist (I've always wanted to use that expression in a post!) when a certain someone starts an incendiary event, leaving us all in a muddle and upset, and then gets the h@ll out of Dodge, and then, what do you know? comes back and does the same thing again!
HEY!!! I don't wear knickers (don't match the red shoes) and I don't even know where Dodge is. And, as I consider the Psych board "home" I'm not leaving either.
hmmm..knickers, now there's a thought for my sex homework. thanks for the help. :)

you've been through this so many times in the past-

We don't often both feel good at the same time,
It's a bit like being drunk or something
We'll go behave now.

Ouch. By the way, if you were referring to me as one of the posters who said you were bad, I never said that.

so many Babblers have been REALLY burned before. You know what I mean.
Dinah, bless you and what you're trying to do---but I don't think I'd be able to do it---
i KNOW I wouldn't actually. I wouldn't want to TRY. Not in the past "situations" or now. and every one has their needs. But you already know that---
take good care, dear...

I guess I just don't understand how to take this part of the post. I know it's *not* part of your personality to be mean.

I think Dinah was directing that post to the posters who spoken out, specifically stating that they wanted to give "fires" a second chance, or at least have him/her feel comfortable at babble and was most definitely not talking to those who those who had reservations. Forgive me if I misunderstood Dinah.

As I meant exactly what I said. And every attempt I make to right this situation turns out badly. And following my therapist's advice to make myself vulnerable is just leading to more and more distress, as it usually does. I think my therapist is full of cr*p.
I'm sorry you think I'm being mean. It wasn't my intent. But I'm not going to clarify further.

In reply to Sorry, everyone, posted by gabbix2 on July 20, 2004, at 18:15:44
You guys are great and I appreciate your support. But I meant what I said. I don't think I deserve any kind words for something that was totally selfish. Not wanting to be bad is not cause for kind words. :)
But I love you all.

I'm glad you want no further discourse, because I'm afraid I don't understand what you said. I don't even know what CSA is. I did a google search, but nothing that came up fits in context.
But no need to explain.
My therapist thinks it's a good thing to make yourself vulnerable and be honest in the hopes of deepening a relationship. It works with him, of course. But I have only found it to work one time in all the other times I've tried it. I think he's full of cr*p, and I don't know why I keep trying something that really doesn't work.
People generally just think you're weird.

I will never be able to apologize enough for my post and the trouble it caused. I am so very sorry to those of you who were harmed by my words.

Emily-- you don't know me- I'm Karen. i don't really post much anymore for a few reasons. one is that "this" happens on the board. Misunderstanding, marauders (sp?), opinions, rules, discord, Dr. Bob admin-stuff. It happens every few months. You can find that in the archives (you won't want to, but-)
My point is that you have nothing to apologize for. I mean it! This whole thing was going to come up anyway-and people all have different takes on things.
You gave your honest opinion and it doesn't really matter who agrees or disagrees.
You were bold to do it!
So remember, your post did not cause the trouble, the situation did.Ok?

Please don't feel bad about it, Emmy. Even my dearest friend has hinted that she thought I was too rough on fires. :) I wouldn't have been open to the possibility if so many people I respected hadn't said so. And I suppose it's better to err on the side of kindness.
(And hopefully he has no more power over me anyway.)

I plan to help keep an eye on the psychology board and put my 2 cents in. I may make myself a lot of enemies, but since I helped start this mess I intend to help with the resolution.
Maybe fires needs a coach on how to play with others?

That sometimes crops into mind in my involvement in Babble.

Sometimes I think it helps to remember that I'd rather see than be a purple cow.
