Too bad you haven't used your imagination to pursue knowledge from some of the great minds that have figured out a few of the things that actually make us tick. Considering your background of abuse, it seems you have explored little that could help you. Just for the record, it aint sex, drugs or rock and roll but simple common sense and not so simple courage.

After reading the long narative supposedly about "whom I am", could it possibly be interpreted as a diversion from what is really going on?

It may be a good idea to back to square one and try to get it right next time.

Please don't be offended, since we do not know each other no one else will read this and it may cause some food for thought. From a guy who obviously has too much time on his hands but hears the cry for understanding. Take care and good luck.

It seems like someone was trying to be helpful, but came off as pompous. I wouldn't give it too much thought.

But I didn't ask for help and I don't even know this person nor he me....my day was going great now I feel horrible,

Noden,

I just went to your profile and I'm hoping you won't mind some feedback, since you opened the door...

It's waaaaaaayyy too long. So long I gave up and I love to read. Also, you put a lot, and I mean a lot, of very person information in there. Things that, if I were you, I would not tell people until I get to know them much better. Remember strangers are reading that information, and not all of them are kind or trustworthy.

Be safe and good luck. Don't let anyone hurt you that doesn't know you. That gives them power they don't deserve.

That's just weird. Unsolicited advice is one thing (and usually worth exactly as much as you paid for it), but this one sounds like he's trying to come across as as "expert" or something.

It could be entirely innocent -- just a guy with poor communications skills trying to convey a message -- but (putting myself in your shoes for a moment), I think I would see this as somewhat intrusive.

I wouldn't be overly concerned unless he writes again; in that instance, you could be getting into a creepy situation and you might want to block him and report it.

Tha language involved ("....could it possibly be interpreted as a diversion from what is really going on?" etc.) indicates a lack of insight; an overgeneralized scattershot approach to make you believe he "knows" more than he does.

At least you know someone is reading what you wrote!

I don't know about the pompous but sometimes people think they can read someone and stress there opinion before they ask. I don't think it was ment in harm. just they didn't think before they replied. Yeah I read some of your profile and alot of us have gone through lifes experiences. But you also show you have grown from alot of it and thats where the messenger got lost and over seen.

Noden...you are a dear dear woman! It doesn't matter what others think of you....those of us that know you love you! Email him back and tell him to do some self reflection before bothering to give others advice! Why would he feel the need to sift through profiles and "fix" people that he knows nothing about! Tell him to get a life and mind his own business!! JMO...I would not let this bother me for one second more!!

Thank you Lex, for the heads up, I am just going to block him, I didn't need that, and like I said I've never "asked" anyone for there approval or input on my profile, our profiles are our own, we can put in it anything we choose to, regardless of it being personal, I have no secrets, so I laid myself out there to show that, also I am glad to see you here to help me, I trust your advice, since "you" have been a long time friend of mine, and consider you to give out the whats best for me....thank you....

Take the same advice you gave me darlin'

See still here thanks to you

dont feel bad

Thank you for your support and helpful advice, I am glad to have all the help I can get, I don't bother anyone on here, so I couldn't for the life of me figure out why this was sent to me, like I was getting singled out or something...thanks Shadow, for the kind words

I don't want feedback on my profile, but thank you for the ending comment, I deeply appreciate it...have a beautiful day...

Your words of support are greatly taken into my heart and I love that you took the time to help me, and also very glad to have a friend like you, I will definitely take the advice you have given me, thank you soooooooooo, much, Fresh

so this guy says you're wrong? i really didn't understand his e-mail too well.

Yes, I know I should've been strong, but today is a very weak day for me, and it hit hard, glad to see you are still here, dc, this place wouldn't be the same without you my friend..

Me neither, and it hurt...

We love you noden. Push the blocker button and move on. I respect you and know for a fact you are bigger than this. I get em too but because I have a big mouth. Push the button "poof!" they're gone. And "bing!" they're blocked.
