I always wonder if I'm coming across like one to people. I have certain insecurities which I won't go on about. But because of them when I see an attractive woman or some beating themselves up when they shouldn't I tend to jump in and make an arse of myself. I just don't want others to feel to way I have/do. If that makes any sense.

So if I say "phwoar!!! I never knew you looked so good" please take it as a complement and not an "excuse me, I've just got to run off and... be right back...". That goes with everyone I've complimented.

The trick is to know what is uplifting and encouraging.... the trick with a thread that is for fun.. is to know when to stop.

To kinda looking at it from a different view.. if some one tells you you are ugly in a joking tone enough times.. you start to wonder if they are really kidding anymore or if they are actually masking a seriouse comment.

The :shock: is understandable. The :cokespit:

could make things worse. And the :biglaugh:

is just cruel! You'd risk hurting their feelings.

I think if you don't like something someones posted, DON'T REPLY!
Could it be simpler? Stop moaning, and don't reply. You don't need to post in every topic, and if people are annoying you, don't post back and the only thing their annoying is a brick wall. Advice to everyone lol. From me.

Oh - a freind of a mine (vaguely) is a model and incredibly beautiful. But that's not how I look at her. She's also clever and friendly. So looks don't matter - no - but there's no point being with someone your not physically attracted to.
She's ditching the job because the comments, attacks of being a "porno slut" and having the piss ripped out of her.
It's a shame someones natural beauty can't be appreicated without the slutty immature talk that goes with it. So, I say, if your a girl/boy man/woman and someone thinks you are beautiful, post your picture freely and be proud of your look and image. Don't be ashamed.

I was going to edit that and add one "and I don't lie, so when I say something I mean it".

I'm rather paranoid so know exactly what you're saying. So, if you ever get pissed off with me just say.

I'll only cry for a couple of hours.

Ok, I'll hand you a tissue with it.. will that help?

ferny · May 4, 2005

Nope, not me at all.

Oh, and has anyone got any talc on them?

I won't reply to this with what came into my head. Things could get messy.

:shock:

I have some of that baby talc. Is that what you mean.

Karissa,

I truly hope that my posts have not offended you. If they have, I apologize.

While I admit that I'd love to see photos of you, my posts were meant to be in fun. I, in no way, meant to insinuate that your worth on this forum has anything to do with how you look.

To the contrary, I think that your infectious personality was/is a great asset to this community. Back when you joined (and posted something like 700 posts in a week), a lot of other people's personalities really came out. People like MD, Shark, Graig & Manda...that's when I really started to participate more at the forum. Even though you have been gone for quite a while, I think that your enthusiasm has left it's mark on the forum.

I'm probably really creeping you out now so I'll just shut up. Again, I'm sorry if anything I said has offended you.

aghastpumpkin · May 4, 2005

Everybody appreciates beauty, Karissa. I have personally not seen a picture of you, but if I did and you are as beautiful as people are making out, then that is how I would look at it. I would appreciate it, compliment you, and then carry on as per usual. And I would certainly not hassle you for more, or more revealing.
It is your choice. And don't put yourself down. I can't stand that! I am 99% sure everyone I've seen post here so far are great people and brilliant in their own individual ways.
As are you.

:scratch: Really? Didn't know that.

No, not creeping me out.

Yeah, I remember the 700 some posts.... Life has gotten... considerably busier since then....

Thank you Mike. I don't want to take all the credit though... I think there where other people that really helped this forum become what it is.

ferny · May 4, 2005

Me! Me! I wanna say it first!

We're all well aware of what this forum is! :grumpy:

You scare me sometimes Ferny.

meotter · May 4, 2005

I'd apologize, but i don't think i've said anything wrong, so i'm not going to

fwiw, i still have no opinion of you, negative or positive... I don't think anybody who hasn't been around long enough to know you from before the return, could have formed an opinion at this point.
