@punkinmama, Me too. It makes me second guess everything. And I don't like that feeling. Hugs.

I’m so sorry you’re hurting. I feel it, a little, and I certainly understand why you feel it.

I think I keep a guard up when it comes to online relationships, unfortunately. I don’t know if that’s good or bad.

Well, you and I are new “friends,” but I felt so bad for you the other night when you were feeling very over it all. I feel like blogging is in it’s adolescent years (and you know what a pain in the ass adolescents can be) when sometimes it’s all love and unicorns and sometimes it’s like a bear attack.

Twitter, well, for me the jury is still out. Honestly it mostly makes me feel like the nerdy girl who isn’t cool enough to get @’ed. Lots of people talking amongst themselves. Like all things, this too shall pass, and frankly it seems like you have LOTS of friends, virtual or otherwise.

You said this so well. I identify with so much of it.
I wasn’t personally invested in her story, I found out about it after she was “outed”, and I’m sorry that you were hurt by it.

I am aware of the situation that you are talking about. I am a born skeptic, so the radar was raised early, but I was on her side, because it is a blog I follow thanks to twitter. I too am sorry that your feelings were hurt, especially when you have defended her.

I have been logging on to twitter less and less, because I have felt that I get sucked into some vortex of stories that I have no business being in. I am not insinuating that you do, but I am mentioning it, because I was losing track of what was real and what wasn’t and being concerned about another story every second of every day. My real life became less important and the online one became more. I had to shed some of that to be sane. One thing I know is that I will continue not to trust people right away, but will find blogs that I can. Yours is one of the few. I am an outsider too both online and IRL. I appreciate you representing me in this world.

I just want you to know, I am sorry your feelings were hurt. This is part of the reason I sometimes stay so close to the edge of things. I want to jump in, but I am not very trusting. Also, I know to well how human everyone is, so I try to take it as life and not too personal.

I am glad I met you, you are a very kind and caring soul.
