    Hi miro hun!:hello:
    Tiff, Tiff, Tiff :j ...Good to see you miro angel!:T :A

    quote=Miroslav;
    Oh, I wasn't complaining, just pointing out that all the people here 6 months ago, aren't around anymore.
    Am I figment of my own imagination hun? :eek: :D
    Ol' Tiffy more than remembers you sweetheart and I do shout out to you - you're not forgotten hun.;) I told you, it's like the Mafia, once you post on here, you become part of The Family! * Tiffy can hear 64 lurkers all heading for the off button!:rotfl: *
    I've missed you hun!hug.gif


    My own fault for going away and finding out when I came back that everyone else was new and didn't have a clue what I was talking about.
    But that's the beauty of this thread hun. You needed to take some time out at the time sweetie. You could have pasted a couple of your posts or written a brief outline. No-one here wants to see a membership card angel, and as you well know, because you are part of it, no-one will mind you repeating your experiences.;)

    I come back to this thread out of habit, but have no real reason too anymore.
    Good hun - that's why it's here. There are still people around - even older than sazzy!:eek: :D - who can remember the things you've been through. You never need a reason to come here miro.;)

    Yes, I still get very depressed, but i'm not starting out my depression with new people again, as I can get repetitive and other depressed people don't need me spouting my rubbish on top of there issues and my support is useless cos everyone else can say it better than me.
    WHOA THERE, BIG GUY!!!

    You are not going to bring anyone else down by posting. You can post here any time hun.
    If you can't post on a depression thread when you're depressed, then we might as well turn off the lights on our way out.;)
    I can understand that it's hard to start opening up again angel, to a new crowd.
    May I tell you what miro is to me and many of the others?

    Miro is a warm, kindhearted intelligent young man who used to post on the depression thread daily. He has had severe trauma in his life and suffers from depression and low self-esteem and other things too. He is also tall and good-looking by all accounts but doesn't believe it.

    He was always trying to cope with all his problems as well as helping others here. He is a master at putting himself down and does not find it easy to believe in himself or to trust others.

    The wonderful thing about miro is that he never stopped trying.:T He even does voluntary work even though he struggles with his own problems sometimes.
    Basically, our miro has a heart of gold.:A

    Miro lives with his flatmate (known as fm) and they have rented together for many years and she is a good friend. He met a young lady (s) who he fell for and was brave enough to try having a relationship.

    This person had severe mental health issues but miro didn't care - he wanted to help her, as he does with everyone, and he began to fall in love. The young woman was so ill that she was unable to maintain a relationship of any kind with anyone and told lots of lies to everyone and abused his trust. He did everything he could to help her and show her love and trust.
    His heart was broken and he felt like he could never trust again and he left the thread to mend his heart.

    But miro is also blessed with a great sense of humour and is cleverer than he thinks. He is a real gentleman and I'm proud to know him.:T :A hug.gif

    Was that ok miro hun?:o ;)


    It's where the language barrier kicks in, my English is good, but it doesn't extend to the likes of yourself, Tiff and other posters as non English natives can sound abrupt and I remember I upset CCStar nearly every post, despite not meaning too, so I learnt quickly to not post to others cos I often made things worse :o/quote
    Your English is more than good and you express yourself very well hun.;) When people post on a computer then misunderstandings happen. No-one is bothered about how good your English is angel - we care about YOU!:A To be so fluent is an achievement in itself!:j

    It's how you're feeling that counts and you're always good at putting that across hun. Your advice was always good hun and to my knowledge, you never made anyone feel worse. ;) In fact, you often made us laugh - do i need to mention The Great Blue Smartie Fiasco of 2006?!:D

    Some people have attitudes or issues themselves and can't help taking it out on well-meaning posters angel. That is part of their illness sometimes. I don't recall cc being happy very often at all hun, sadly.

    So miro hun, I hope this has helped. What people don't know about you they will learn as they go along.;) Please hang around - the same kindness and support is still here for you.hug.gif
    Much Love,
    Tiff xxx

    Afternoon :hello:

    It was lovely to see the sun shining this morning, just sat out the garden and had lunch and its lovely out there.

    Had my bloods done and it was over in minutes, don't know what I got nervous about, the nurse was lovely.

    Tulip hope you have a lovely fun evening, we are off to DD's school concert so looking forward to that.

    Tiff what a lovely post, I lurked on the thread for a bit last year and I do remember thinking what a valued member you were miro, hope you continue to post and we can get to know each other :)

    Well, real reason or not, you know you're a valued member of the thread and welcome here anytime. I don't ever recall you being abupt, in fact, i can recall many times when you were extremely helpful to people on here, and many other posters/lurkers who were touched by your situation and your honesty in what you posted about how you felt. So no, I wouldn't class that as "rubbish" at all hun. We still need you here.

    Love, Saz xxxx

    I've never been abrupt, but i've been interpereted in that way. I get that in real life too, probably because of accent and missing a word out somewhere :o
