    I have learned from the chit chat fun and games forums that there are some people out there with great creativity and sense of humor. I have learned that there are some people out there with mean streaks a mile long with no other obvious purpose of being here besides putting that mean streak to use. I have also learned that some people are just weirdos. I think I see a common trend among many of the people who post often, and that is...either loneliness or boredom in their real lives perhaps. No judging, just a guess on my part. I think the forums are a fun way to reach out and connect with people as long as you are aware that, like in real life, there are good people, so-so people, and asshats. I think a very important lesson I have learned is that since this is an online community most people view others as disposable and easily replaceable. Those who truly care are indeed special.

    Spot on. Love you girl!

    I've learned that if you don't private message a lot, talk dirty or share photos privately.... you're likely not going to get a ton of support.

    I guess I really didn't know this was a thing.. I feel like I have some great MFP friends!

    I've learned that I suck at the whole Wall Love thing.
    I don't have enough synonyms for "Babe", "Sweets", "Hot Stuff", and "Sexy Face" in my vocabulary.
    I guess I just suck at that whole competitive trying to out flirt others kind of thing.

    I've learned that the Fun & Games forums can be fun, as expected. If support is needed this isn't where you come. (Oh, and the whole some people are vicious thing. That too.)

    People always talk about cliques. Where are the cliques? Am I in a clique?

    I've learned that it's counter productive to actually count on someone on here. I'll support them as much as they need, but I'm not going to assume they will be there for me if I need them. That makes me appreciate the time I interact with them for what it is...they may be gone five minutes from now.

    So true. People come and go and you invest time into them yet rarely get the same in return. But I guess it's like giving a gift..better to give than receive
