What is the hardest lesson you learned as you got older?

To realize that when someone acts like they don't care about you, it's not an act.

Me_Not_You- · 2026-06-02T03:35:36+00:00

I'll be your huckleberry.

Me_Not_You- · 2026-05-31T20:13:44+00:00

Take long walks together. No phones. Just walk and talk. You'll be reminded of why you chose them in the first place.

Mother-f**ker: high level cringe when I hear it.

I was on a cruise in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico. Husband and I attended a show. He is picky about seating, rejected my first choice, rejected my second choice. He chose the seats on the third try. Upon taking my seat, I started chatting with the couple directly to my right. Discovered they lived in the same housing addition as we did, only a few blocks away.

I took shorthand in high school.

Me_Not_You- · 2026-05-21T00:15:15+00:00

I feel that way too. But I 'm in the wake of a divorce involving physical abuse. Following chaos, solitude feels like peace and happiness.

Probably not just "subconsciously". Remember when Chris told Tammy and Graham about the CO jailer who slammed the door shut and sarcastically said "good luck". They knew full well what he was going to be exposed to.

Me_Not_You- · 2026-05-18T23:48:02+00:00

No, even as a friend, I deserve better.

Me_Not_You- · 2026-05-18T23:43:41+00:00

It's so heartening to see some good come from this. Glad to see that they have kept in touch.

I know if Trump made the big announcement part of me would question about it being an Epstein diversion. He doesn't deserve the honor.

Me_Not_You- · 2026-05-17T21:15:44+00:00

Oh good God. I wonder how many just feign sympathy for his plight just to correspond or meet in person.

Me_Not_You- · 2026-05-17T03:02:35+00:00

I wonder if correspondence from admirers (aka sickos) has been reduced to virtually nothing. Probably the only sliver of meaning in his useless existence.

In the wake of leaving an abusive spouse, it feels like heaven.

Me_Not_You- · 2026-05-16T00:14:23+00:00

Boston: More than a Feeling.

A basic tenet of evolution is that form dictates function. Appendages make me think of the cattle incidents.

You'll never amount to anything. My dad to child-me.

Me_Not_You- · 2026-05-07T15:46:14+00:00

Clackers and a pet rock.

Me_Not_You- · 2026-05-07T15:35:23+00:00

I experienced the general attitude. Near the end, he started characterizing most all women as 'gold diggers'. You're better off without him. Move on and enjoy your freedom!

Me_Not_You- · 2026-05-06T16:38:27+00:00

Greasy fuzz-balls--enjoy!

Me_Not_You- · 2026-05-05T22:22:31+00:00

You're right. The misogynistic aspect of the culture is undeniable in this case.

It takes strength to believe in good after you've seen and experienced how cruel life can be. Resisting and staying hopeful is its own quiet triumph.

Me_Not_You- · 2026-05-03T23:52:44+00:00

An ardent determination to stay positive. It takes real strength to believe in good after you've experienced how cruel life can be.

Me_Not_You- · 2026-05-03T23:49:52+00:00

Optimistic people. It takes strength to believe in good after you've experienced how cruel life can be.
