    Generally, people here in this community are supportive of stuff, and JR is actually a really good guy (as is his uber-cool partner StickChick). You'll find that for each Carver or Skiddy, there's dozens of very real, good people here. Even the ones who you might think are asses at first, once you decode the noise and see their concern, you come to like and respect them as well

    And, part of the thing of sharing here is the shit being chucked as well.
    It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.

    where ever you go, there you are.
    i tend to agree with random that you are suffering from a case of "poor me".
    a small amount of time away is only good if positive action comes from your reflection/meditation on self.

    if you are anything like me, your head is a dangerous neighbourhood and you should not go there alone.

    healthy thought does not always lead to healthy action, sometimes you just get self obsessed. however, healthy action leads to healthy thought.

    That sounds like Science to me.

    nothing wrong with a bit of self-absorption from time to time, as long as it DOES lead to a change in situation.

    And a forum is as good a place as any to vent, beats the speaking clock at any rate...

    Too many years of not getting into the healthy thought (or any thought for that matter) has resulted in this... Not self pity - I don't do the Oprah BS, it's more that I'm stuck and posting about it helps me work out my own twisted logic from the real truth... It's good getting unbiased feedback about shite...

    She also holds the honour of being the best pillion that I've ever ridden with. What she sees in him, I have no idea really.

    Yeah but JR's a good guy - I don't agree with all his views in here, I'm sure he won't agree with mine. I'll still listen and I'm sure he's doing the same.

    What do you mean by that - I don't follow.

    i found it hard to understand exactly what the problem is ? some kind of relationship thing ?
    anyway, hope you feel better soon.
    a bit of time away does tend to help most of us, make it work if you can mate.

    It's kinda hard to avoid seeing pictures of me...

    Oh, look, another one!

    And, why yes, the aviator sunglasses do work as an excellent substitute for personality.

    I think we met on an ATNR once. I remember talking to you at Shell Westgate.

    Oh, for the record (since I reread the new apartment comment who everyone else would read it) -

    This is a new hotel doing an opening special, the rooms are $120, which is about $20 less than the flea ridden backpacker pit next door (which is full uo, hence the reason I picked this one...).

    Plus the receptionist is hot.
