Kim......

So sorry to hear about what's going on at your previous workplace. I know from experience though that people who spread lies like that are usually already thought of by other coworkers as someone who is not to be believed.

I used to work with someone who I thought was really awesome because he had so many cool stories to tell until one day another worker basically told me that I should take everything he says with a grain of salt (which means don't believe everything he says), and this was one of the top managers telling me this. Then I started thinking about the stuff the guy said and realized that it did seem a bit far fetched. I was probably the only one there who really believed him...

My heart hurts today. It would have been my mom's birthday today. I can't handle round two of all of this. =\
Lil, I'm so sorry. New Year's Eve was really hard for us too. Just know that she's watching over you and that one day you'll get to see her again. She just went to heaven a little bit ahead of you.

My best friend is a guy.....


Boundaries are important in friendships.


I think you said it pretty accurately. Just because you feel a certain way (even though your feelings are valid), doesn't mean it's factual. I think you just might not have learned how to be friends with the opposite gender..but you are coming off as it being fact. And it's just not factual. Women and men can be friends.


Yes, because you should ALWAYS believe what YouTube tells you.
I bet he's a decent christian and doesn't app you from morning til night and ask you to come over and take your toothbrush with you. Yes such normal friendships exist, but I was more worried about this case. I can't be friends with him. I just give the wrong impression if I always answer nice and friendly. Just learned that from google. Google knows a lot. Next time I just shut my phone off.

Oh, I've moved on from this...but apparently, you still want to continue this. And you're bit of a troll. Yikes. Simmer down, sweetheart. Let's all get along here :D.

It's good for you to set up that boundary of not hanging out with that friend, though.

Anyways, no one treats me like that because I set up boundaries in my friendships. If someone does that, I set up a boundary immediately. No one has done that extreme, but that's because I don't get into unhealthy friendships or relationships. All my relationships are healthy with the opposite gender and with the same gender.

Yeah, because no one treats me like that because I set up boundaries in my friendships. If someone does that, I set up a boundary immediately.

Don't bother, Shine. She's a one-note it would seem.

Apparently some people never grow up, even people who are old enough to be my parents :x

Haha. ANYWAYS. Happy Tuesday people. What is on the agenda for the day? :D

I know, right. Not quite old enough to be my parents though.

Oops, it's almost 2 hours into Wednesday! So it looks like I'll be catching some zzzs and then, upon waking, write some job applications, get back into drawing, watch some Mad Men, do the Scrivener (a writing program) tutorial, and some random errands etc. Goodnight from me, good day to you!

Oh? Job applications? What are you hoping to get? :) And goodnight, TinTin. Sleep well!

Hey guys,

Just wanted to tell everyone thanks for the kind words of support. I feel a lot better today. Had a lot of prayer, etc., and realized a lot of it also boils down to my pride.

I was upset because I didn't want a bunch of people thinking stupid things about me! It was all about my reputation. But life isn't really about us, is it? (I know, I know, God has to keep reminding me about that.)

I wish we could all have one big meetup... and a huge group hug!!!

Thanks again and much love to you all!!! *HUG HUG HUG*

Thank you guys so much!!!

I didn't mean to troll. I just wanted an answer but I'll ask someone else in the future. I'm sorry, they banned me from another forum where I just knew the people and anyone could ask such stupid questions.

No, it's not a silly question. You are fine, Coby :)

Is it late where you are? If so, what did you do today?
