It might be an idea for me to take a break here for a while. I think perhaps I was seen as a threat to some kind of mother/daughter kinship and the resultant healing Pomp gets from this. I feel like I’m spending too much time in ladies’ power rooms anyway. 🙂

Pomp
I’d say this is more about Queen Bee envy isn’t it.
You’re not quite up to that status here yet. Keep trying. You’ll get there.
But you’ll need to work on the nature of your communication style which tends to be rambling and incoherent.
Not to mention those spelling mistakes…er..
Shame it came to this though. I was going to let it go, let you get away with that obnoxious post. But no, I think its time you had some of your own medicine.
If you can’t take it Pomp, don’t dish it out.

just a shame this place is not more lively

What did the dog say when he heard other dogs talking about him?
Woof Woof!

I’m back! I’m back!
It’s Llama Llama Jack!
You can’t give me
the sack, the sack!
because I have the knack, the knack
of finding out your lack, your lack
and being leader of
the pack, the pack
I have to
clack my rack
my rack
and eat a nice
Big Mac Big Mac
look out here comes some
flak, some flak
I’m under
huge attack, attack
Have to rebuild my
shack, my shack
OK I know
it’s only prac
but still

now learnt the entire family will be fasting over 3 days apart from myself. I feel incredibly uncomfortable at the thought of being the only person eating and drinking over these days

🙂 forgive me for being amused by this scenario but it would kill me because I am so fond of food.
I’d say skip the event for sure.

In answer to Pomp’s statement that “no one owns this forum” I would agree. But the way I see it is, Anita has earned the right to be the main authority figure here. if anyone else is prepared to do the hard yards and respond devotedly to every cry for help every day, every post, then I might consider them as well but I haven’t seen it yet.
So I am prepared to cut Anita more slack than everyone else. If I strongly disagree with her I am going to spend more time communicating with respect. But the way it has turned out recently, I agree with her anyway.
On the other hand if someone comes on here randomly and expects 100% empathy for their point of view, I’m not going to feel as obliged.
So you can call this bias if you like but I wouldn’t support someone who I think didn’t deserve it.

I mean the only thing they all do is never take me out anywhere, we are always stuck in the house

That sounds disrespectful to me and a real red flag. Perhaps you need to be more sensitive to early warning signs like this.
There are other factors like age. I imagine older guys would be ready for more serious commitment, which is what you are looking for.
Perhaps take a break form relationships for a while and just try to enjoy life on your own. Discover other passions in life.
