    Ha see? Ask a legitimate question about a post and look what happens. Ain't nobody here want to hear the truth. ;)

    I always want the truth, except break it to me gently or I'll punch you in the throat. :DB)

    Guess our minds just work differently. I said that I recognize her screen name so she must participate in the threads enough for me to recognize her. She posted about feeling ignored. And it must just be happening to her then. I asked what kind of attention she was seeking based on reading her comment. Perhaps I should have asked what do you want to happen to feel less ignored. To me it's the same difference. She said I was assuming she was thirsty. I did no such thing. I just wanted to know what she wanted to happen for her to stop feeling like she is being IGNORED. As she has posted several times. I was interested in her concerns. However, I am no longer interested in them now as my interactions to her where perceived in such an apparently negative way. I am at a loss.

    Had you worded it the other way I wouldn't have taken it the way I did. People are so quick to judge and jump on people's cases, it's hard to NOT be defensive when someone makes a comment like that. The internet loses a lot of interpretation. And yes, I do post, doesn't mean people read them or acknowledge them. So my bad... it's all in the wording.

    I didn't know we were allowed in the selfie thread. I thought those 5 people owned it.

    Well, yeah and that too. Besides it has been more of a conversation thread lately anyway.

    You mean like "cliques"? :#

    Maybe? I dunno. I don't hang out enough on any of these forums to really be in one so not sure I have any expertise on that subject, lol.

    No worries. I was just trying to assure her that she wasn't the only one with those observations. I do more lurking here than participating unless it's posting fun cat pictures and .gifs. :D

    Wait.... this isn't real life?

    Stealing this.

    I've learned that some people steal others pics, post it as their profile pic and then claim they were bullied. Where's the eye rolling emoji when you need it???

    Did this really happen? I stole my profile pic, I decided to go with a less attractive hillbilly so it'll go unnoticed

    I've learned that I get way fewer creepy messages when I don't post in fun and games

    I don't think flirting is something you can practice. :lol: although cheesy pick up lines often make me giggle. Lol

    And thank you :blush:

    Yes and that poster is right here in this thread claiming how mean people on here are. She stole one of our most adorable girls pics claiming she did it cause she was being bullied.

    Selfie thread needs some variety.

    I've learned that no one is around these parts on weekends or evenings.
    What's up with that?

    Just me. I pop in whenever.

    Hell, I don't have time anymore except then. And then none of my peeps are around. Lame.

    Dang, I missed it. Those are juicier than the estrogen wars.

    Not so much testosterone as there are the kinds of people who flag and the kind who don't and there's really no bridging that gap.
