Chaotic Coffee Klatch (tea also available)

[Photog1rl]

I have been so dysfunctional, In my early life, I often tried to express myself with music - I thought other people “felt” it like I did. I played a part of a Rolling Stones song for my mother, stupidly thinking she would “get it“, what I was trying to say… she instead ridiculed me because I misunderstood the lyrics. I was probably 12, and instead of acknowledging what I thought Mick said, she corrected me and thus invalidated what I was trying to say. And made me feel like a total idiot for my effort to connect.

A few years later, I tried to tell my sister how I loved her and admired her, playing a Kinks song “come dancing” which would often literally bring me to tears… yeah, like my mother, she didn’t understand at all.

They were not at fault, the problem was with me. I was broken (have been for my whole life). I was not able to express my emotions apparently how they could understand.

Taking on all the responsibility seems like a heavy load. As family and friends we share the responsibility for communication.
And ridicule never has a place in that. I’m so sorry you’ve felt broken.
Sending you big huge hugs!

I humbly ask this, when someone in your family reaches out to you, and you have no idea what they mean and think they must be an idiot, please try to pay a little more attention. They might be desperately reaching for you.

Your sister is now my hero!

Mine too, but fuck is she scary at times!

Ever watch the show F Is For Family on Netflix? How Frank is always threatening his kids with “I’m going to put you through the fucking wall”? She quite literally put my brother, who is twice her size, through a wall. Mom was pissed!

@rjr_1954 I may be misreading the room but I think you might want to move along.
At least for the night. Come back when you know what/how the site works.

 

[BrendaBear]

WHY?

Wait, what?? I thought I understood where you were coming from. But you ask “why”? That feels like a total disconnect there. Bummer!

I now love her too.

Besides, I am not interested in men older than my parents...

I think it's getting to the time to use the Ignore button. I hate to suggest it, but if this continues, it's the best option.

No dear, you read the room well. Except rjr might also want us to have enough time to forget this whole episode before coming here again. A few months at least.

Real talk: at this point he has been told by multiple people. I feel that any continuation on his part at this point could only be interpreted as blatant trolling. It might be time for everyone to break out that ignore function.

Like minds.

 

[rjr_1954]

Ok don't shout. I get it. I'll be quiet & take my meds.

She said no. That's the end of this. Drop it.

THIS IS NO FUCKING PERSONALS THREAD.

 

[rjr_1954]

I'm sorry. I'll be quiet & take my meds.

[PlanetaryNebula]

So anyway…

if you truly take medication that make you go from a misunderstanding ass to a regular behaving person ok but if not then you are just further exposing your problematic behavior.
“Taking your meds” is a real thing for lots of people and actually saves lives. I hope you are not making light of that.

Nebs, I tried to record but for the some reason it didn't record anything.... Maybe tomorrow night.

And now, maybe, returning to normal temperatures... And going to sleep. My cat is already waiting for me to cuddle him.

 

[rjr_1954]

I am bi-polar, jeckyl & Hyde personality. We can't afford to split up; she will not have an income.

It's not my problem that you stay in such a marriage. Even if you were single... Frankly, even just bluntly asking - oh no, you didn't even ask, you TOLD me to write you - like that makes a quite unappealing impression. Even without the episode before.

There are also plenty of highly appealing men here who still don't get anything more than friendship from me. I am attached and not the least interested in getting into anything here. Which you would know, had you bothered to see my profile.

Thank you for trying Strixy!!! sleep tight

So anyway…

Yes indeed. Good thing I still have a swallow left

 

[cheekygirl75]

Yes indeed. Good thing I still have a swallow left

That's what she said

 

[PlanetaryNebula]

I can try to swallow if you want

I'm bi-polar, and have jeckyl-hyde profile personalty. I'm also manic depressive of which I take medication for so I don't harm myself (truth)

I thought of you.

If that is the case and if your behavior is due to not being on your meds then I hope you are able to find a routine that allows you to take them regularly. Mental health and brain chemistry is no joke and as you did seem a bit off, I’d be concerned for you to not find the right rhythm.
Good luck.

We are not unkind people here. I’m sorry for your struggles.
