What have u learned about yourself since joining SW ?

First I wanna say that I learned that I am capable of being humble and it doesn't always matter if I am right or wrong. And that I am much more straightforward now than I have even been in my life. So this time we are gonna talk about you. Not them. But you. How has this site changed you. And what have you learned about yourself as a person.
Be open. Be honest. And don't hold back. ☺

I have learned that its okay to say whats on my mind. Keeping it all inside is not worth it.

@WildHeart I agree. You should say how you feel in spite of the reaction you may get afterwards.

@Zonuss It is harder since people online are just as judgemental as those that are off line or maybe worst?
Being here has grown my confidence level so much so that I can handle negative comments, mean remarks and nasty pms. I think I am very capable of giving as good as I get.

Ive learned that i am relatively sane compared to most in here. LOL
@DollyLand first one that came to mind LOL

Just confirmed the fact that I'm different.

Zonuss · 41-45, M
@SW-User Yes, you are different. But aren't we all. ☺

If you can't introspect enough to figure out what you've learned, have you learned anything? o.O I sorta wonder about that, especially on the occasions that someone says something like "I hope you learned something" and I'm like what, huh, was I supposed to learn something specific?

Regardless, all life is learning, every moment we're learning something - whether even useful or correct - so I'm sure we're learning *something*. Though, personally, I'm no fan of thinking like "The X has taught me that all X are Y" (Well, in this case about ourselves!) which seems to be more or less what is meant with "did you learn anything". So I guess it's more wisdom than knowledge.

@Faust76 Well said.

EP was a major impact on my life,and where I found the first online friendships,and I shall never regret them.SW rekindled my desire to take part,laugh and discuss issues again.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@pedrohedgerow Oh well that is great to hear. Some people left EP with a broken heart. Life goes on. ☺

[@Zonus because otherwise it...ends? :)

I suppose it has confirmed to me that I'm an ambivert. I think I want attention, but I don't really want the kind of attention I get.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Persephone So that means in some way you are conflicted. Right or wrong. ☺

I’ve learned so much. Largely, after years of being truly unhappy in so many ways, I’ve learned that I am still a creative and vibrant person when I’m not in the throes of depression.
I am vulnerable, kind to anyone that is kind to me, I am patient but when temper flares I can be heard on the next block
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Mondayschild Do you ever feel like sometimes you are too nice to people.
@Zonuss hmm yes I know I am.
SW-User
That I love to get into fights online, helps me with my stress irl
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@SW-User Are you this way in real life.
SW-User
Nah I’m the opposite irl 😂

@DollyLand Good to hear.
Pherick · 41-45, M
I have learned I have little to no patience for people who mouth off without having anything to back it up with. You have an opinion about a scientific theory or truth? Sure, but you can't back it up? Why the hell would I be respectful to you?
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Pherick I see. ☺
SomeAreBoojums · 51-55, M
That spending more time irl and less on social media is beneficial, satisfying, and necessary
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@SomeAreBoojums So you enjoy your time here. ☺
toddr13 · 46-50, M
I have learned that I do have nearly infinite patience.
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
Honestly--and this may sound egotistical--not a whole lot. For better or worse, I know what I can and can't do, my positives and negatives, etc., so if anything, I have learned more about the people who post here.
