I've been lurking around for about an hour now, reading over various posts including mine, and I began to ask myself what you all think of me.

Most of my stuff has been quite serious, for me anyways. I'd like to know how you react to it all, what judgments you have made, what thoughts you may have had, what attitudes you take.
For example, if I had read one of my recent posts a month ago, I would think Desu was just a weak, complaining, emotional bastard and not bother to even finish reading the post.

If possible this thread can turn into a place where we share advice and ideas about each other without taking offense. Thinking back I would have loved to have one of these in the leto days.

This thread will probably sink right down, but it's ok, if you think it's a bad idea don't post, or post saying so.

I'm simply curious to know what people who have seen me only in writing think of me.

I think you're a pretty cool newbie. Even if you don't care much for fluff.

Who are you?

I think you're a really nice guy, who's going through a tough time, and wisely turning to a place such as Hatrack for support. [Smile]

(((((Desu))))) It's ok, that's what Hatrack is for!

Celia, I once asked you what would happen if I showed up at your doorstep, is your answer still the same?

- This place is gettign to me, exams are comming, I think i'll do them and then, if I have not changed, take a bus and go somewhere.

I'm just a guy trying to do something he does not understand.

Posted by Desu (Member # 5941) on :

I was hoping for some spoilers, i've been trying to pick a fight all day.

Posted by celia60 (Member # 2039) on :

yes, it is. that's just how life goes. you have a family of your own.

Posted by Desu (Member # 5941) on :

I need a place to crash for a few days, but I understand, it would be awkwards anyways.

Posted by celia60 (Member # 2039) on :

we've been over this. crash at home or where your parents know you are. not at some crazy lady you've never met's place.

Posted by Desu (Member # 5941) on :

You're right of course, you usually are about things like this.

I'm still interested in the original question though, fire away people.

Desu, there is "running away" and then there is "strategic retreat". Not telling your parents where you are (as much as you might loathe them) is "running away"

I'm a runner, but not just yet, I owe many people my word, I will only break it if I have no choice.
A friend of mine once said it's better to run than to die.

(((Desu))) I'm sure we'd all take you in if you turned up on our doorsteps! That's the true spirit of Hatrack.

but it sounds like you need to talk. Problems at home?

Posted by Desu (Member # 5941) on :

Here, more broad and interesting;

What criteria do you usually use to judge people when they are either posting in forums or chatting on the internet?
Can you usually tell the persons age (I realize you never know for sure), do you feel you can trust those you meet here?
Can you tell the men from the women?
What can you tell by the way a person writes, what conclusions do you come to, even if you have to dig hard to find what they may be.

I find the whole topic very interesting.

Posted by celia60 (Member # 2039) on :

no, we wouldn't. to do so would be to confuse nice with right, unless there's a lot he isn't telling me about home.

Posted by Desu (Member # 5941) on :

I think i'll start up a new thread in a day or two, using my last post as the core. Hope you all have lots to say then.

No i'm not being beaten, my parents care, when they have the time. But the home I have now is... anyways, notihng to be done, so let's not start, even though I must be asking for it.

Posted by MaydayDesiax (Member # 5012) on :

??? (((((Desu))))) Fine, if you don't want to talk about it...

Don't blame yourself, dear. It can't be entirely your fault...

Posted by celia60 (Member # 2039) on :

mayday, i'm pretty sure he means the arguement he knows we're about to have.

desu, i'm on my way out. you know what my email is.
