Do you have anything in common with my opinion below?
I've been thinking about being social, and using this discussion board.
Since leaving the JWs, I've been more social with different people. After working all day, I really don't like to go out in the evenings. Then the weekends, it seems that I'm often busy with personal things and family, so don't care that much about going out then either. Plus, I really enjoy time in solitude for reading and other past-times.
But I've found this board to be an important part of interchange with people. I've gotten to know some of the posters too. Another thing I really like is the ability to drop in, discuss important issues, fun things, and anything really.
It doesn't demand that you go out at night, make idle small talk, or even leave home. It's perfect for filling out a need to be somewhat social.
I still do get involved in some social activities, but am careful to not get overbooked to where I'm feeling overtaxed with people. This board in particular is very important to me. I've looked at other boards, but just can't feel involved. But having met quite a few on here and feel as tho I know others, it just is perfect for me.
How do you feel?
Hugs,
Pat
