About mean arrogant people and cliques on other online forums (not pc).. my gosh. Quite shocking really and rather disappointing. Meh...

I am not the most unendearing, unthoughtful, unintelligent, unpleasant, ''weak'' or ''boring'' or even ''negative'' person ever, so I shudder to think how much some must have been harmed in some of these places.

At least I've never been banned or even suspended

Sorry if this sounds bitter, I am hurt by the fact that so many in this world seem to be terminally selfish.... and I was constantly told by my parental units how ''selfish'' I was.... it was the ''reason'' they abandoned me Nothing to do with their own flaws, dysfunctions and selfishness...

It sucks when parental units are committed to making their cubs feel intrinsically ''not good enough'' ….

And it doesn't help when those cubs eventually seek out a therapist who reinforces those cruel messages I was ''unfortunate'' as the therapist told me... unfortunate in finding him

He also told me I ''had always been alone''... and he ''had no empathy for me''... I will never understand the motivation behind that comment... it seems sadistic to me.

(and yes I do have an adequate memory and am aware I have mentioned that individual before....)

Sorry about the anger... I was also instructed from a very very young age that any anger, however expressed was intrinsically wrong... and should be punished with severe threats and other...

Love and respect to all here

(eta I request no posts offering basic prescriptive advice (with no empathy) such as ''move on'' as this is the ''advice'' offered in my forest in real life and I personally do not find it helpful...)
