Old and stupid

sooty41 May 17th, 2023

I have wanted to do my absolute best regarding the current answerathon. I have replied to several folk and now it seems like there is no one waiting on the needing reply section. But maybe that's just because i'm old, stupid and technologically challenged.

I am here if any one needs a listening ear. xx

@sooty41 I appreciate you wanting to help the community come together by offering your support. That is commendable and I applaud your efforts. Please do not be discouraged, Sooty. I assure you that you have much to offer and you are far from being "stupid." The needs reply category seems to have a glitch but there are postings on the forums have no responses or replies. It is just a matter of taking the time to find them. Have you tried sorting it by recent so you can see if anything pops up that no one has taken the time to reply to? That is how I came across your posting and I am really glad I did. I am sorry you think of yourself in a negative light but I bet you are amazing. I am thankful that there are people like you that have a desire to help. I appreciate you. <3

Hi @sooty41,

@YourCaringConfidant given you a perfect reply, I just want to add that if you want to help members being a listener you have to create a listener account. Please feel free to message me if you need any help with that.


And please keep in mind that you are important and you are far from being a stupid.

Aww hey hey @sooty41, affirming to what my wonderful peers have said before to you! ❤

Plus, No one waiting in the needs reply section is actually a win for the team, for all of us, for everyone who who's been tirelessly spending their time, care and effort in supporting others, making more people feel seen, heard, acknowledged and supported in less time. ❤

No one waiting on the needs reply list, means everyone (including your immensely caring, always supportive, enthusiastically responsive and supremely loving self) is doing their best consistently to answer to all forum posts, as soon as possible, with kindness, compassion and support. ❤

Time for a pat and group hug!🤗 We're all doing amazing!

First you need to change your mindset of yourself. @sooty41

@sociablePark1240

I am very aware of my own flaws and of the work i need to do internally. But that doesn't stop or hinder me from wanting to help others. If we all waited until we reached the pinnacle of perfection then nothing would ever get done and no one would feel understood or related to. Yes, i am damaged, but that does not stop me from caring about others who are also struggling.

@sooty41

I'm actually rather upset about this. No one has the right to judge another. You have no idea of what my life has been like and are therefore not equipped to tell me that i need to work on myself. We all need to do so. This is why i don't " do " people, because i always end up getting hurt. Despite the best of intentions. I should know better and remain in the safety of my solitude.

I am deactivating my account as i am weary of getting hurt when my intentions are only good.
