Remind me to never post on this board again asking for ppl to listen
Edited on Sun Jul-17-05 11:18 PM by Faye
I just read some of the replies to my post here from last night and i didn't exactly like being told i was 'stalking' anyone and i was trying to be nice and not name exact 'names' when i was telling about what happened. of course it was about VNV (the people in my sig).

i can't believe some of the replies i got last night. who some of these people are who i've never seen here before - i wasn't purposely listening to anyone's conversations and i wasn't stalking anyone.

i can't believe i would hear shit like that from people here

27. it's ok, let people search for it
just feels weird having the link posted outright.

just a sensitive situation i guess - i want to hear what ppl have to say, but hearing 'you need therapy' and 'you are a stalker' does not make the situation any better....that's all :)

25. "Childsih losers..."
Some of us were sincerely pointing out the way others might perceive the actions of Faye and/or the two band members.

The fact that it wasn't necessarily what Faye wanted to hear doesn't make us "Childsih losers."

My own advice was to stay away from them, as they obviously are not friend material.

yes that was pretty much it, i was really tuned into him, his voice, the things he said - it seemed to only be when it was about me though. not like i could hear every word he said to every person.

which is what he might think - i did hear him say that :( he wondered if i could hear ALL his conversations, which i can't....

Edited on Sun Jul-17-05 11:29 PM by MadAsHellNewYorker
I had a similar experience once at a party with some friends. I was...um, how should i put this...in a bit of a k-hole (lol) and was in my own little world chilling in a corner. I had friends on the other side of the room and couldn't really hear anything anyone at the party was saying, BUT when my friends started to talk about me I heard the WHOLE conversation. I like screamed to them at the top of my lungs to get in on the conversation, and they were a bit freaked that I heard them talking...I only heard them mention me and the part of the conversation talking about me, although they were in a "private" conversation. This reminded me of that a little...

22. People get spooked by things that they don't understand.
If they admit that there are things going on that humanity doesn't understand, I think that some people feel as though they've lost control.

Hopefully you get more information about your gift. Until then, keep asking the Universe for it.

I don't know what to tell you about your situation with the band members. Too bad that it had to get to this point.

What you've got is very interesting to me. VERY. Some people just don't understand or accept things like this.

16. I know it can be frustrating but don't give up.
The only (vanity) thread I think I ever started was about a circumstance with a dude I've been seeing for several months. I was confused about his behavior and after a plethora of "booty call" responses (he had arranged for a date four days prior) I got some advice than was spot on.

It really seems that this community is more often supportive than not, but maybe consider not posting a thread and leaving it unattended because it'll be more likely to get derailed if your not around to refute the BS when it starts to fly.

OTOH some folks just post to vent their personal frustrations I swear.

Post a link if you want some constructive feedback.

Don't let the suckers get you down.

19. Faye, I apologize...
if any of my own posts offended you.

I was in no way making fun of you or accusing you of being a "Freaky groupy". I was merely pointing out that IMO, they were ridiculing you, and you should stay away from them.

In their opinion, NOT MINE, they might see you as freaky. My intent was to keep you from being hurt or ridiculed further.

Looking at you while talking and laughing hysterically is not a sign of 2 people who want to befriend you.

23. no no no nonono
Edited on Sun Jul-17-05 11:32 PM by Faye
they weren't doing that at all! the one was just telling the other about me and who i am, told him of a message i left him once which was funny and they were laughing about it. they weren't ridiculing me at all.

i think some people didn't read that post from last night very clearly.

the only thing close to something bad he said about me was when i heard him talking about how i heard him the first time and he was freaked out thinking what if i could hear ALL his conversations.

30. ".... what if i could hear ALL ..."
In which case, so what if you could, did he have something to say to his partner that he wanted to hide?

Maybe he's scared you have ESP, some people are really frightened by anything that isn't "normal" or mundane.

If the MSG they were discussing was intended to be funny, then the 2 of them sharing a guffaw was an appropriate response.

I may have misinterpreted your post to mean you felt extremely uncomfortable due to the laughter. I'm sorry. :hug:

Edited on Sun Jul-17-05 11:42 PM by Faye
which is why they walked to the other side of the stage thinking i wouldn't be able to LOL

it's not like they purposely did this in front of me.

man the more i think about it the more funny it almost seems.....

i'm sitting here feeling all bad cuz i could hear him - he should feel bad for talking about me (even though he didn't really say anything bad) :P

"(even though he didn't really say anything bad)"

Maybe hashing it out here on DU helped in some strange way. :shrug:

You really need to not let yourself be so upset by such things.

24. I read your post last night but didn't reply
To me, it looked like you were wondering if you have 'second sight' or whatever it is they call it and I didn't feel like you were stalking anyone. I didn't reply because I don't know enough about those types of 'senses' so couldn't really add anything factual about what you experienced.

I'm sorry others here saw it in a different manner. Take care.

Edited on Sun Jul-17-05 11:36 PM by Faye
i know that i do, many forms of it.

i just needed to express how wierd it was - how in a way it was cool to have had it happen with them/him - but at the same time, i was mainly concerned with what he thought of me now. he was so freaked out, but i didn't do it on purpose!!!! :cry:

33. I've heard of remote viewing...you also might check out DU Groups
then the Spirituality,alternative healing section. Some of the posters there know quite a bit about this sort of thing. I totally believe that this can happen. It is a gift but people who don't understand it are, in many cases, going to get weirded out by it. Good luck! :-)

35. Well
Edited on Sun Jul-17-05 11:57 PM by stellanoir
sorry but I did go to the original thread.

I've had similar experiences and those sorts of abilities do often freak a lot of people out.

It is possible to screen them out simply for the sake of levity but in a situation where you have an emotional investment it's tougher.

I wouldn't split hairs over whether it's clairaudience, remote viewing, or telepathy as they are all interelated really. So it's a combination definitely.

There are those who will always be threatened by these sorts of gifts. It doesn't sound as though they were freaked so much, more like they were trying to figure out what was going on.

If you really want to continue to go and see them perform, just try and keep it really light for a while. Your able to tune into them for some reason but let them ask you about it when they're ready and they probably will over time. Good luck and rest assured that you didn't do anything wrong. It's just a proclivity that is very often misconstrued.

37. thank you!
well i won't be seeing them for a while - the tour is over for now.

i do think some day soon they will say something - i just have a feeling. i have already pretty much chilled out in the places they can see me online - i just need to stop referrng to it and let them be....

which is why go to other forums to talk about it :D

thank you for understanding :hug:
