its giveing me a bunch of laughs & laughs are good enough..

Mingle. has made me a better person.
It has helped me to see value in myself.
It has helped me deal with issues I didn't want to
I can always find something posted on mingle that will make me smile
It gives me a place to post my poems with out fear of rejection
I love my mingle family
they are awesome.:)

Oh yes!!!!
i have made some good friends here.

I don't think Mingles has changed me as a person but I have chatted with some wonderful people here. I have also dealt with some nasty people on here which is why I took a bit of a break from Mingles the past few months. I can't say that Mingles has changed my mind about meeting anyone after reading some of the comments I have read on here. I am still put off by that thought.

I think I am not as uptight on mingle as in real life.

HEYYY

I have met different people from different countries
learnt about different cultures
made a lot of good friends.
Laughed so much it hurts. I needed it
open my eyes to some things I didn't know

It did.

I was a very nice person when I first joined. :D

The people I met here, the precious friends, even the people I disagreed with or didn't like, they were...are learning experiences. I do believe they made me a better person, as cheesy as that sounds.

ya I was nice
once upon a time...


when a man complimented me? I thought he meant it
when he said he wanted to get to know me? thought he was serious
when he flirted? I responded in kind
when he seemed to want to talk to me for hours on end..I thought it meant he was interested in me


now? I nip dat sheet in bud before it even starts

I learnt about scammers. Oh my was disgusted people do that crap.

I have learnt to harden up and not be so naive with what people say

So you resurrected a 3 year old thread just to post this?

At least it is a good thread!

No, not really but it's been fun.

Well, when I first joined I learned that I was not as stupid, ugly or worthless as I had been brainwashed to believe.

I learned to not be afraid when I flew across the country for the first time in my life to meet someone.

I learned to let love in when I meet my fiance.

I learned what friendship truly is when he died and I came here for support of friends.

Now, I have learned that I do not suffer fools and stupidity as easily as I did before. Just too old for that stuff.

Lastly, I have learned what I truly want and deserve in life as a partner and it might not exist anymore.

IDK if change is the proper word, but YES, I have learned some things and am continuing to learn because of Mingle.

yes it has I used to have dignity and self respect LOL JK

And it is a rare occurrence- Soufie starting a thread.

Well, that was 3 years ago. If she does it once in a blue moon ya'll have to wait till January 2018.

What I learnt
- To not take men's intentions with a pinch of salt, but a whole pot.
- That there's an equal amount you cannot and should not trust.
- To be harder on here than I really am, lest I don't get hurt or walked all over. I was shocked at first how hard people here can be. Almost left screaming when I first got here, lol

- That there are some really nice people here too :)
- It helps to keep my English up to speed, as I don't use it in day to day life no more since I left my ex

I'm the same, but with few more friends :)

Has Mingle changed me... I had to try to remember who I was all those years ago when I joined.

IN one aspect yes it has.
I found such a group of friends that I have tried to explain to my in person friends that they can't relate.

I have learned many things I had no clue on.

I hope I have learned to be more tolerant of different people.

I have learned no matter you say to a 25 year old they won't take no for an answer

I met Pancho from this site..

So yeah I guess I my life has been changed for ever with that one instance.

Here's to Mingle or what ever name they come up with next..rofl
