Hi @Former-Member ,

Its certainly been a busy day on the Forums! I am reading that you may be feeling quite distressed by some activity on here today. Just checking in that you are feeling alright and reminding you that we are absolutely behind you and here to support you. Online communciation can be tricky and sometimes things are misread and can come off in ways not intended.

If all is well and you are happy to keep posting for now, please don’t mind me - however,
you can reach out to us via email, a support line, or check out our resources of conflict and self care if you are struggling.

Please do not feel bad @Former-Member ... you did not say anything to upset or offend anybody.  I am sure it was nothing you said at all.  Its just that there is a lot of distress and high sensitivities around the forums right now. You and I amongst them I think?  Definitely not your doing.  It pays to be mindful of how others are feeling right now though and try not to take any comments personally.  I've had to do that too lately.  Its hard I know, when we are going through so much ourselves.

Would you like to talk a bit about what you are going through yourself right now? Please dont disappear, you have not stuffed up at all.  💞

Hi @Snowie ... yes crowds in real life stress me out.  And even on the forums on busy threads I find it hard to keep up or to contribute meaningfully.  So I often just drop out .. mostly nobody even notices, because there are so many others around.  I can feel very insignificant sometimes, and feel that I dont really matter to anyone. Well done to you for taking your D shopping today. 😊

Thanks for being there @Emelia8 Not sure what to say really.  Can't say much. You know what I mean 

[Snowie]

@Emelia8 well said hun. I think there is a lot of distress around the forums at the moment. I find it hard at times to know what to say.

I'm sorry you feel insignificant at times, please know that we do not see you like that at all. I value you and your comments hun.

D needed some girl clothes (if you get my drift) so shopping was necessary 😊 I guess that happens as they get older and things start growing!

I'm so sorry @Former-Member and @Snowie ... I got a phone call which lasted just over an hour. My brother needed to talk. Back now, if you still need to talk @Former-Member. Yes I do know what you mean about not being able to say much. And I do feel guilty for not being here over the past hour. I was not expecting that phone call, and had hoped to settle in for a quiet chat with you. Perhaps another time?  I do have to go and get some dinner happening now, so cant stay now.

Awww @Snowie ... how sweet ... its such an important time for a young lady. Growing up is hard, and it sounds like you are being the perfectly supportive and sensitive Mum that she needs. I hope the purchase was mutually acceptable? Oh and thanks for your kind words. Yes I do often feel insignificant and that I dont matter, but I guess thats something I have lived with most of my life. Its my doing, rather than anybody here. I appreciate that you say you value me and my comments. Thank you.

Emelia 😊🌺

[Snowie]

Don't be sorry hun @Emelia8

I hope your brother is ok, he is lucky he has you to talk too.
