@MissAnthrope You were the first jelly to be nice to me and not make me feel like a newbie. I’ll never forget you :)
Sometimes I do feel invisible. It’s usually when I feel I’ve given tons of good answers, well thought out and articulated, but they are passed over for some reason. Then I wonder if I’ve offended anyone lately and if I should apologize. Then I remember that “Internetz Are Srs Bsns” and I relax, unplug for a day and come back with a new viewpoint.
I’ve also found that there are waves to my lurve. I think there is a time zone of people who I lurve and who lurve me- unfortunately for my bad days- we are about six hours apart. So I wake up, give them lurve and then respond or post new. Then nothing. Until six hours later I’ll see some trickle in.
I try to remember that lurve doesn’t mean anything. Yet, in a way it does. It’s an attaboy, an ‘I agree’ of sorts. I wouldn’t care if the points stopped accumulating but I do like knowing I’m appreciated.
