In Reply to: I wish more of the old sisterhood would return... posted by Brian on June 09, 2005 at 19:02
Thank you for your question Brian. :) I miss the bond we had. It used to seem like Saffy, myslef, Anais, A., you and L.E. were the main posters. I like to think of it this way: because WE were so open with each other it has allowed for others to have the confidence to speak up on this board. To be honest, some of the more recent topics seem 'forced'. Almost like we have run out of things to talk about, and now need questionaires to prompt us to communicate with each other. The other reason, as mentioned in my previous post, is that the board is littered with Daddy ads. I applaud the girls who are bold enough to post 'want' ads for daddies, but it almost doesn't seem fair that the guys can come in here and post ads looking for girls, because it happens on many other boards. I will spare you my annoyance level with the South American who first posted looking for a mommy, and then ripped into L.E (I believe, but could be wrong) for his honest oppinion. While there is always a constant threat of minors getting in here, in reality all they have to do is lie about their ages. I doubt anyone bothers to check ages, except for Dailydiapers.com. I think they periodically do some kind of scan. My solution to the situation is to simply ignore the person and hangout in the background until everything settles down.
As for your question about my uncertainty, well I'm embracing my LG side as much as possible. I come here knowing that I'll be safe and accepted. My boyfriend supports me 100%. Due to the intensity of my job, I have started to wet the bed again so I wear goodnites pretty regularly. He understands and if we're out he will even give me a little verbal reminder that I should go. I am trying to find the line between being a little girl and a baby. He doesn't like the idea of treating me like a baby, because after awhile (through trial and error) he discovered that he was treating me like a baby all the time. I couldn't be that way all the time, and I'm trying to figure out how I can work being a little girl into my everyday life so that he doesn't get upset. He isn't into this stuff, so it's a little harder for him to understand. He is a psychology major, so perhaps somone might have a psychological idea that would get his mind going?
Don't worry about me though. :) I have every intention of staying here. Once things even out, perhaps the 'old sisterhood' (I throughly enjoy that term)will return. I'm even willing to bet a new one will develop with time, and I will most likely join in. :)
