Up for a chat
I would like to hear what you have to say. Mmmm, been trying to respond but system keeps crashing. Hope we dont suddenly have 4 responses from me! In answer to your ealier question Shelley Anne, yes I am much more comfortable in my written expression. And at least I know it will come out as I mean it to. Cant say the same for verbal communication however. I think there is a disconnect between my brain and my tongue. Rob I don't think I like the pop ups either.

I don't think Sherie and I have meet on other thre, but I have read some of her comments or posts though. I am not sure if she is still here. I actually feel a bit dumb now, because I started this session wanting a chat, and I don't even know what I am doing. I am so sorry Philip you were saddened by my disappearance. It makes me sad.
I do appreciate you reaching out and replying to my invitation to chat. I hope you will forgive me. Thanks Rob, for your encouragement. But I feel sad, because I fear that Philip may feel rejected by me, And I can not stand the thought of that up below for regular s filled with information, advice and support for you or your loved ones.

Definition of 'chat up'
Do you have any ideas? I'm not big on small talk either actually. Fine pair aren't we? I'm actually ed the Forum because I cant talk to anyone about my issues, and dont really have any friends anyway.

My psych suggested the BB Forums could be good for me. I did smile a little with your comment about being a fine pair. Yeah I don't find it easy at all to make friends. And I have never understood small talk.

Ha ha, jolly good. Glad I got a smile anyway.

I've never understood small talk either. But so far I just have not been able to do it. I find it all so hard. I've always been a bit of a loner and definitely introverted. My husband is bordering on narcissistic and I have lost touch with the few close friends I used to have.
So now I basically just keep to myself.

The only person I can really talk to is my psych. But she's great. Unfortunately I dont get to see her as much as I'd like. Used all my 10 mental health sessions by August, so now have to wait until next year. So thats a bit hard. Gruffudd Champion Alumni. I would be a third on the small talk. You know those chat things that pop up, I can't use them they are a little too instant and demanding for me. I practice Buddhist meditation.

That sitting position is called 'the full lotus position'. And while it is in no way a position necessary for effective meditation I decided to do whatever was necessary to be able to sit in it. I did so as an act of self Up for a chat. I have never practiced yoga. But I find in sitting in this way during long sessions of meditation that my spine and shoulders do not ache as they used to do in other positions due to slouching forward. In this position I feel like a tree stump.
My spine remains straight and firm and my shoulders are not compelled to struggle against gravity and therefore are relaxed which I find beneficial Philip. Do you find you are better at writing then say verbally speaking? I think I am.
Look up a word, learn it forever.
Yeah I am married too, but also a loner. To Shelley anne and Sherie I would add that we make a fine trio. Shelley anne and Sherie have you come across each other elsewhere on these forums? Hey Rob, Philip and Sherie, I do actually find it funny in a way that we all don't go for the small talk.

What are we supposed to do then? I love to write. I appreciate the possibilities in language. It is not superior but for me I am as authentic as I can be in that medium. Verbal exchanges are compromised by the ego of the other.
