Okay, my turn to ask a question of you Bonzi. Do you feel that you have a strong need to be accepted by everyone and to try to make everyone like you at any cost? Does this do something for your self esteem?
No. I just think it's fun to talk to a lot of people on line. Even if they are talking to each other and it doesn't involve me. If I can come up with something that is interesting to other people, it makes me feel good.
Other than spending time with family, watching sports and attending sporting event and going out to eat, I don't really get to socialize that much. I mean, I CAN but, it's easier to be "myself" here....
You seem to come across as rather "needy." I'm not trying to insult you. I'm just making an observation. And just because you don't socialize much does not mean that you don't have a need to be accepted by others.
No one wants to be an isolationist! I'm realistic, some people will like me some not so much.
I'm not going to try and be someone I'm not for acceptance .....
As someone from the outside looking in, I see it a lot differently. I'm sure I'm not the only one either.
