I guess I’m not liked very much around here.
I just noticed that a lot of the other people on here have tons of “shouts” and “friends”, etc. I only have one shout because I asked someone to send it so I could see how it worked. I have 0 friends. I got my first invite today to the little girl’s birthday. I guess I’m being ignored…so I’ll just be on my way. It’s been real.

lol you’re leaving cause of that? As if any one on MY friends list invited me, I invited all of them. Its just the internet man, all you have to do is click a button, you dont even have to talk to them.

you have to put yourself out there to be liked
me for one have no clue who you are
Well, I’ve been around for a month or two. I try very hard to help people. It just seems that in all that effort, that maybe one or two people would give me a shout or want to be my friend, espeicially when I see that other people have like 40 friends and 66 shouts. I just don’t want to be where I’m not wanted.
have you tried asking people you like on here, if they will be friends with you?
are you kidding me?
if your that sensitive maybe its not wise to be on here
I guess your right. You’re so kind and sweet that you have convinced me to leave. With friends like you, who needs enemies. Bye
Please be nice Wut
Terri - you need to make friends here by helping and talking to them. Try adding some body as a friend and giving them a shout. Some times you need to take the 1st step and not wait for them.
You all are mean but you shouldnt care..
I read your last reply to the girl who thinks she contracted HIV and the one bad thing you did was force your religion on her. Thats a no no especially if the person isnt a christian. You should try giving advice without putting religion in it. I mean sometimes its necessary but others its not. The person might feel attacked instead of helped. Does that make sense to you??
Im not trying to start a debate about religion dont take what i say defense, please

Hello Terri, Not sure what to say… hope you’d give help.com a try, A month isn’t really all that long you know.
I really really hope that’s not how you tackle bridges and hurdles in your every day life. Things take work and effort and friendships, any sort of relationship in real life and on the internet takes time…
How long? How ever long it takes to establish trusting and reliable and secure relationships… it goes both ways… stick around, even if you don’t feel like commenting… just browse the site and see how it works… you’ll get a general feel for the place and you’ll fit right in along with the rest of us.
If you ever want to chat, just give me a shout. Until then, take good care of you.
your friend, Shannon

I didn’t have anyone on my “friend list” the first month here, and then I clicked that little button by a few of the people who I liked, respected, looked up to, or otherwise had good feelings about.
That was neat, so then I befriendlisted everyone who seemed really great to me. Then I realized that wasn’t a good reflection of my offline life, so I accordingly unfriendlisted everyone. Then someone felt sorry for me and said, look, this is how to get some friends. So I clicked everyone again. Then they talk to me and I forget to reply.
So…… have a nice day :)
hey dont leave ! on here its not about how many friend you ve got i think.
why leave? you cant expect people to be friends because you demand it.. you have to stay around.. help others and you will eventually get to know them… then.. friendship is found… where you will be added as a friend and invited to many posts.. stay around…
Aw, I would’ve been your friend! Still will if the offer is open! ^^
I do find many of the people on here rude, but that is their problems not mine. -nod-
Love is Free for me. I’d invite you, talk to you, and shout you anytime!

I doubt its that no one likes you, I bet its cause no ones got to know you yet and see you for you.
I agree with Dan TL. You might give great advice but your personality is probably not showing through your words.
The poster makes a valid point.. Some of the most friendliest people get un noticed.. some of the others barely say anything and gets a lot of attention.. Dont know why myself.. maybe this is not the place to be popular, maybe its in the real world if thats what you want.. This ais all just cyberspace and dont take it too serious…
I felt unnoticed for awhile. I just had to give people a chance to get to know me and see who I am. I just kept helping and in time I started to get shouts. Give everyone a chance now. To be honest I never even ran across you in a post.
Essence, lighten up, your wrong, there are great people here.
Being judgemental turns people off.
Lighten up?? I was never upset… I never said there werent great people here. I was referring to the people who left mean replies and as you can see some of them were removed. But i guess you only saw the negative thing i said and not the good but its ok thats your opinion and i will respect that greeneyes. Have a great day! :)
I said to you the other day terri tht you had walked in the middle of something if you remember the conversation. I seriously think that you get out of here what you put in . Maybe patience is one of those virtues that you could work on. I totally agreed with what you said at the time I just thought maybe you were in a hurry. Turns out you might actually have been in a hurry. Why not have a laugh in some of the funny posts and get a feel for who you think has stuff in common with you. I’d be astounded if you didnt find people. I never thought that anyone counted replies or shouts until now - just saw them as an admin thing not a badge of popularity . Maybe that’s the secret dont sweat the admin stuff - Regards mas
My beef with most posts is nobody listens,reads before retorting..
I have to admit I read most of them twice - even then sometimes what the person meant can be different from what I thought.
Thanks for responding essence,
My mistake, that went to the poster, terry boberry, She states everyone is mean and shouldn’t care
[quote essence]You all are mean but you shouldn’t care..
That quote was taken out of context from another conversation you apparently witnessed, it faked me out thinking you were saying this and you then became the poster. My mistake. My apologies.
Its ok what i meant to say was You all are mean (referring to the people who said negative things to him) and that he (terry) should not care what they say. Then i saw that he replied to someone talking about religion when there was no need for it, at least not in that particular post.
I was rushing because so many people were jumping down his throat saying really mean things and i thought that was wrong of them. Sometimes people feel lonely and come here to know that someone out there actually cares. And he probably felt like no one liked him any where (online or outside of this site). I felt his pain and was trying to help. But i guess i went about it in the wrong way. Because if you misunderstood me someone else (terry) probably did too.
Compared to what Katelyn - I’ve seen worse do more replies. New people do go through that feeling it’s not the first time I’ve heard this said - I think it’s just a matter of time before Terri finds his niche
