    Dealing with social banter and possible stigma

    That's really tough, I'm sorry this happened to you! To me, name-calling and insults are never playful banter and are rude. This is unless you have a close personal relationship with the person and it's mutually understood that it's only teasing. I can only share what I've personally been able...

    just a question

    I've noticed if I click on it and then click "mark viewed," it gets removed... I imagine it might come back though?? :confused: This bothers me too as I like to have all notifications cleared on everything: email, phone, sites, other devices, etc. Hehe!

    Having too much stuff

    I tend to collect things so have accumulated quite a bit of "stuff." I'm not really attached to things though, so I often have purges where I donate a lot of things. I would probably be in a better financial situation if I didn't buy things just to have them as part of a collection that I do...

    Does Anybody Else Hate Double Standards?

    Unfortunately I feel like I have double-standard beliefs myself. Like "I'm emotionally fragile so no one can criticize me, but I'll criticize you because you can handle it." I hate this about myself.

    Who Else Hates Traveling?

    I have a very hard time leaving if I'm going away for a while. I feel overwhelming grief, and often cry at the start of a long trip. There are a lot of feelings causing this, but I'm not exactly sure how to put it in words. The thing is, I LOVE the idea of traveling. I want to check out new and...

    Anyone else here who tells blatant lies for the sake of it?

    I feel very bad when I lie, but feel like I can pull off a lie fairly well. It was a real problem for me as a child though. I really would just make things up for the sake of it. I'd tell people stories to make myself sound more interesting, for one thing, but I'd also lie about little details...

    What is your mental age?

    I am definitely younger in spirit! My desk at work looks like a teenager works here. In my mind I'd say I'm maybe 18, and I'm 28 right now. The weird thing is that I feel super young mentally but at the same time feel that I'm an "old soul" and in a lot of ways more thoughtful and mature than...

    What are some things you like about yourself?

    You're so right, sweetie. I'd never have the confidence to say any such in public, in face. Typing is my mask :)

    That's such an important quality, and many people don't have it. I bet you're an awesome friend :)
