What Are You Nosey About Today?? 🦝

[Jm19]

An erotic fiction website has always struck me as a strange place to discuss politics.
I wonder what happens if you try to discuss sex on a politics forum. Do you get elected MP for Henley on Thames or something?

Seem as you mention it wasn't Boris the MP for Henley at one time?

What a remarkable coincidence

I have major trust issues with most people here. Like Scully and Mulder, I want to believe. The truth is though, I generally do not. Im a hard nut to crack as someone sort of suggested today and that comes from historical and recent experience. But if you are one of the few that manages to crack me, I’m in. I’ve got your back for life.

That said, I’m also fairly open and honest about that and about who I am and what I stand for and all of the things. I don’t want to be ruined by the past. I will just keep a healthy distance between the hearts and the bits and not let you ever touch either.
And PLP I’d always rather know the answer.

While "I Want to Believe" was a hallmark phrase for the X-Files, so was "Trust No One".

Why is Jane's middle name Marie?

 

[AmberLGreen]

Women of a certain age have middle names of Marie or Ann.

What age is that? My middle name is Louise (hence the L). Does that fit in an age range too? If so please tell me that it is 25-35 age range lol

 

[MrPractical]

To be fair, I called out Mr. P and called him a limp old man, first. We don’t like each other. There’s no underlying anything else, at least not on my end.
I appreciate the love, though.

No more on this from me. Carry on.

Thank you...I dig that. Carry on kid

Today I’m nosy about people’s interactions here on Lit.

Are you open and readily share with people or do you keep people at a distance? How trusting are you with other Litsters? Are you skeptical of everyone? Do you let people see the real you? When someone asks your name, do you give them your real one?

I try to be an open book. If someone asks me a question, I'm either going to answer it outright or tell them I don't feel comfortable doing so and why. But I don't have anything worth hiding, no skeletons in my closet. I'm not going to judge how other people handle themselves here in this regard, but to my mind, if you aren't being yourself then you are betraying yourself.

I don't know that I would say that I'm skeptical of everyone. But I try to work out what everyone's angle might be. But, at the same time, unless there is an obvious malicious intention I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt until they give me cause. I've learned, to my detriment at times, that people's motivations and expectations are all different and difficult to predict or read. Sometimes, maybe I need to be burned by someone before I can accept theirs.

I try to, in terms of showing off the real me. I try to be true to myself in everything. I'm not sure how well it works out in the end. I can't see how you all see me, probably thankfully. But there's no sense pretending to be someone else. It's too much work, and for what? The Lit popularity contest? No, I'm not impressing anybody. Be loathed for who you are, rather than loved for who you appear to be.

I do give out my real name when I talk with people for any extended period. First name anyhow. It's never gone beyond that, nor do I imagine it would online. Litsters I've met in person have known more, and I've never had cause to regret it. But I wouldn't expect anyone to give me their name under most circumstances. It's about context, I suppose.

I keep most people on Lit at arm's length. I have a certain level of skepticism of most Litsers, so I'm not very trusting, but that's the way I am in real life. I'm suspicious of people, especially those I've had little or no interaction with, who PM me out of the blue. If it's a guy messaging me (and 99% of them are), I assume that he's just got a hard-on and he's looking for inspiration to help him beat off. And I maintain that suspicion until I'm proven otherwise. Is that fair of me? Perhaps not, but it works for me. Maybe it's to my detriment, but I see no reason and have been given none to change.

As far as others I do interact with, I'll let them see the real me, but (BUT) I don't as a rule tell people much about myself personally unless 1) I have a reason to, and 2) I feel comfortable with them. People don't really need to know my first name (though maybe half a dozen on here do know it), they don't need to know where I live, they don't need nudies of me (sorry boys, you ain't getting them), etc.

It takes a lot for me to be comfortable with someone. I have a shitload of barriers up around me because I want them, and I can't and won't lower them for just anyone.

and..NOOOOO I am not looking for a hug fest or anything. But really, I think most people who are here know the people who don't like them. Sometimes it's blatant. Just curious.

Hmmmm......I'm curious about how many answers you get? Kidding...
But I hope you don't think I'm one of those?

I don't really know you, Amy, but there is nothing not to like as far as I can see.

I'm curious though, what would you do with the answers to your question? Would you change something about yourself for others? or just say "cool - thanks!" and move on about your day? (I'm hoping it's the latter, but I'm nosey )

It could be they are scared of your Dad. Boys are often scared of pretty girls dads. It’s a guy thing. Vanilla man code.

Or in their head you are one of a kind some kinda beautiful beautiful cool kid and that can scare a boy away too.

Shrugs , I don’t know * maybe it’s all in your head.

 

[BadAmy]

Bold question Amy.

well. I do know who doesn't like me.. from obvious interactions, or lack thereof. I know why one doesn't. But the others? It would be interesting to learn. I cannot claim to be or not be an asshole. that isn't for me to decide. But if i act like an asshole, I would hope people would say so.

There is the rub, if they gave a shit, they would. So the silence...speaks volumes.
meh.

I lit my way.

Have you ever thought to reach out and ask them?

 

[JerseyJade]

I just want to go on the record and say, I like BadAmy. That's all.

Everyone loves Amy.

So what is everyone up to this weekend

 

[BadAmy]

that is an excellent idea!

 

[SassySheDevil]

Sorry. I don't think you'll find the answers publicly. You already have swarms of people waiting to attack.

I very much enjoyed reading that , honestly it is a well thought out post.

Thank you for sharing, I’ve often over this last year wondered about you and if you had any left over effects from the Mall incident last year. As I recall you where a little shook up as it was so close to home for you. Unless that wasn’t you , then I’m just embarrassing myself. I too knew someone that was close to that when it happen besides you.

No need to answer , I just wanted you to know your not invisible. The lurkers out number the daily posters 10 to one , that’s a fact. Just know when you do take the time to talk real talk it’s heard by the silent lit majority.

Peace out , stay cool kid.
