I never saw myself as a thread maker but A while ago I was very active in thread making within this forums. Now days I tend to do more posting than thread making,
The reason for my wanting to write threads was to see if I had an ability to be understood in the written form, to air my views and to see what the responses would be. This gave me the indication to know if people understood me within the written form as I had never communicated in that form before.
I spoke in the chat rooms but that was so very different from this forums, here you could ask more questions not always related to sex, but could ask those too, like the one that I asked about how to squirt and people here explained in such a way that they helped me get past the point where I was getting stuck.
I went through a hard time last year when my mum was diagnosed very suddenly with cancer, I raised difficult questions of which I am grateful for people that responded to help me understand the way I was feeling was normal. Other made me laugh when I felt like crying, they kept me thinking positive thoughts.
I like to raise the odd topic sometimes political debate as you get a feel of people and they can make you sway your way of thinking. I like to think, I like to question, I learn, listen and question more to people that disagree with my own opinions and that’s when we learn more,
Just lately I have become more of a poster, I am now just wandering about having fun but pop up from time to time with the odd thread.
I had to overcome my own insecurities to write a thread, my first I was so scared wondering what type of response I would get, how I would be perceived by others, would I be hounding out for saying the wrong thing it can make you become paranoid at times but I soon overcome this weird feeling it produced in me.
It was scary being new here and standing there taking things people were saying to me in the beginning, as some are very cutting with their remarks, some just try and rile things up, some you have disagreements with. But I am glad I stuck it out though thick and thin as sometimes I wanted to walk away and cancel my account, as sometimes it is hard to put your head above the parapet to be shot down, as some like to do. But generally you will find they do little in thread making but more in just posting.
I would like to see more people post threads, I am sure more would like to, so take the plunge stick with you convictions but don’t get personal with your responses and you will see like me you will survive here, without knowing or meeting anyone here I am still here writing, It doesn’t bother me if people don’t like what I have to say, I still have a right to say it as you do too.
