Do I even fit in here anymore?
Do you?

Do we?

I'm feeling a little . . . adrift.

1. I'm not here as much as I used to be....
with Grad School and what have you...

Also... the conflict across the board has been more than I care to deal with. It's been pleasant the last couple days, though.

2. I've never fit in anywhere. It's really quite freeing once you get used to it. nt

3. Have you tried a shoehorn?
Or a very large mallet?

Helped me. But if that fails, massive oral infusions of ethanol.

yes you do fit in.

8. I'm beginning to feel like I don't fit in several places where I used to fit in.
I feel your pain. I guess it's like a cicada shedding its shell. Hopefully, we'll both come out better people. :hug:

9. I feel the same way
But I'm not going to stop posting. Sometimes a second argument isn't a bad thing.

And other people can beat me up like those 8 savages did to that one girl who said something different too. At least this is the internet. :P

10. Sometimes I wonder as well
It is normal I think.
Many I care about have been scarce lately..
Maybe it is just the primaries?
Things and times change..And so does this forum.

11. I know how you feel
especially if I stick my head into that cesspool known as GD: Primaries. Things are a little more right of the dial than I'm comfortable with these days. :-(

14. You've got me flummoxed.
I sure as hell don't fit in here, but I'm not in a position to judge whether you do or not. The whole of life is run by arbitrary rules anyway (sort of like one big continuation of high school), and acclaim, condemnation, and total neglect are handed out by I don't know what system.

15. Fit within yourself. That is all that matters.
Believing in yourself is the thing that matters most.

Fitting in with a group may be helpful, but it is usually useless.

No one knows your own circumstances like you do.

17. I've never "fit in" anywhere
I've been a loner all my life it seems. So, as usual, I think I'll just stay around, get drunk and annoy people until I get tossed out. :hi:
