  • PAP, what's up?

    This place, this forum! (not daily chat of course, and the lovelys inside) I just wish those who post would open their eyes once in a while and actually think outside the box :confused: No one is perfect so why do people feel the need to judge others, why do they even bother posting utter drivvel that only boosts their own confidence/self worth? I mean sure those who post on 80% of the boards are all here for the same reason if not for the reason the board was set-up so what's the need? Do they get a kick out of it? Are they all children laughing at us? Grrr... At least I can turn this damn pc off and forget about the low lifes, but alas sadly the people they 'abuse' may not be able to forget so easily...

    I think I need a break from mse, if not the whole of it at least the 'new posts' button :o
  • Linda, I usually love the jewellery you post but frankly that necklace looks like my jewellery box if you shake it all up then put it on at once... sorry...

    Phew - thought it was just me. Interesting necklace but ....

    A phone is a phone to me. I need to text and phone. I have a camera to take photos. All too complicated. My SIL can change tv channels with his phone.:confused: Er why? :confused:

    Depending on the neckline I'd go for the earrings. Diamond studs or drops, whether fake or not, always look classy :D

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Pap hun, if you don't have the emotional energy to take on other peoples' worries, then don't. You give loads to this site - no-one will criticise if you relax and enjoy the support and chat for a while. We all go through phases where we support, and phases where we need support.

    I dont think you need a necklace with that gorgeous dress Linda - would cover up the cleavage ;)

    Go for some classy earrings, and maybe a bracelet.

    Now the dress on the other hand is lovely BOS.

    PAP, sorry you feel that way but I think many folks are just posting to provoke a reaction. There are lots of lovely people about but also a good few !!!!!!.

    some quick points.....

    1. :wave: @ Snaggs ;)

    2. Linda - nice dress...go with cleavage and no necklace, always a winner in my book ;)

    3. pap - yup, sometimes things get you like that, but remember there are friends on certain threads who won't let you down...stick with who you know and trust for a while, and wave a very BIG two-fingered salute at the cretins :)

    4. :wave: to anyone else left in here not specifically mentioned by name :)
