I don't know. It makes me sad. There was a spontaneity here for me that's gone now. I used to feel free to just post whatever I was thinking, no matter how confused or weird or wrong I may be. I would experience the group sending messages of understanding, or direction, or sympathy, or even a good ass kicking if I came off too harsh, or totally made an ass of myself. Now I'm hesitant to post at all, and if I do, I'm watching every word for tone and shit. It's not fun here anymore.

And I know that one situation shouldn't sour me on the whole deal, but I just don't feel like I have any backup on this. If I wanted to be alone, I wouldn't come here in the first place.

I fully understand. I share many of your sentiments.
