Do you feel you fit in here?

Its like some days Im just so grateful for kind and compassionate people here. Truly. Other days like today,, I feel so lonely. Hbu?

Yes & no. I think I fit in here because I don't fit in most places, so I think all of us here have that in common.

We fit in here by not fitting in

In some ways, with some people, the same way it is offline.
There are several of whom I’m very fond. 🙂

@bijouxbroussard thanks 🤭

If you feel that you fit in here then you've lost touch with reality, this site is for entertainment purposes only not for defining yourself.
This place often makes me feel lonely but it’d be even more lonely if I didn’t come on here.

@BrokenAbyss Same actually

I don't think about fitting in here. I'm appreciative for the kind, fun and cool people I've met here as they make this life just a little brighter.

Observing how the many sociopaths here operate also gives me some degree of gratitude: for my friends and family in real life and because I don't encounter people like that in my non internet life.

No. I have found kind and compassionate people here. I’ve also felt lonely here. I’ve had people say things that hurt me, and things that have helped.
I don’t think I feel like I belong though, but I think that is a problem with me. I always feel like I’m intruding.
I always enjoy seeing your posts. You’re very sweet.
Coralmist · 41-45, F
@itsok Aww thats really kind if you. I enjoy yours too!!! I even watched a few Little Bear episodes after you made a post on it!!🍂🌻
Fairydust · F
There’s some lovely people here, sadly there’s some not so nice people.
😞
@Fairydust Yeah. I'm all kinds of things 'round here I never knew I was. Just like you never realizing you were a man. I'm glad we finally got the memos.😏😳
Fairydust · F
@MoonlightLullaby yeah it’s their issues not us, I just have to remind myself that. 🙄 crazies 🤪

I'm sorry you feel this way. I've never really fit in anywhere, not even here, but I think that makes me unique. Hopefully you can gain that superpower yourself.

Think about it though, it's mostly a cliquey site. Do you really wanna belong to one of those? I prefer being a misfit myself.😉🌷
Fairydust · F
@MoonlightLullaby
absolutely 💯 🥰
@Fairydust Stay authentic & free from societal pressure, my beautiful friend 💕🙏😘
Fairydust · F
@MoonlightLullaby
🥰❤️💫 you too.

depends on who is on
sometimes I feel like I have two heads
sometimes I'm a proud resident :)

It's SW, it's pretty much hit and miss on any given day. Hell it's hit and miss on any given hour.
Piper · 61-69, F
I don't feel like I fit in here, much, but neither does being on here make me feel any more or less lonely.

Martin is my best friend.

We have sleepovers and rub hot oil into each other's shoulders and listen to Placebo.
scorpiolovedeep · 51-55, M
Unless you have really close connections (not the people who comment on your posts ) , it seems to be a lonely place.

And then the posts ..,

Less than 5% are good posts (just an estimate ) and thoughtful but chances are they don’t appear in your feed when you login on a bad day.

Yes there are very very few good people here though.

Note : Based on observation of the site for last 5 years.
Thevy29 · 41-45, M
I'm not good at talking to people or connecting. Probably due to my loneliness and depression. I try to overcome it by drowning them with Dad Jokes and memes.
Thevy29 · 41-45, M
@Coralmist Quite a few are my own invention. I work with Dementia patients. A sense of humour is the last thing to go. And a well timed quip can make a difference in their lives.
Coralmist · 41-45, F
@Thevy29 Thats really gracious of you. 🌻 They are appreciative of it no doubt.
calicuz · 56-60, M
@Thevy29

Wow, I didn't know this part about you. You're a good man and thank you for taking care of our elderly.
Keep up the good work!!! 👍
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
You have to have a thick skin some days on SW.
Ducky · 31-35, F
I know I don’t. I never fit in anywhere, lol.
Tastyfrzz · 61-69, M
I basically feel very frustrated. I learn a lot on here about interactions and some folks have some pretty witty stuff that they share but I don't have anyone that lives close by that I can really communicate well with. I have a close friend but we don't have a lot in common. So, yeah, lonely too
Docdon23 · M
I have a few people I have formed a nice connection with and I love interacting with them. There are also some I do not share many interests with or who ignore me...that is fine...and then there is the political debate, which I try to avoid but sometimes i cannot help myself...
Jeephikelove · 51-55, F
Feel the same as you do. 🤗🤗
Henal · 26-30, F
I don’t fit in anywhere. I figured that out a very long time ago. Sure, for a short time, I’ll get along with a few people here and there, but it’s only ever temporary. More often than not, I find myself feeling very lonely.
JoyfulSilence · 46-50, M
I feel like I am off to the side, watching people dance.

Yet often the dance floor is just plain empty.

I am lonely all the time offline and online. It sucks.
Lilymoon · F
If I avoid the crazies and stick with my circle of peeps I'm fine.
Once I go outside those borders it's a crap shoot. 😳
Oh I don’t feel I fit in at all.

I’m that odd person who seats themselves in between a family and just looks at them in not a bad way. Just odd 😃
Heavenlywarrior · 36-40, M
it’s ok. But it’s still just another social media platform. It’s cool to vent or just say some crazy stuff and see the reactions lol
Jungleman · M
i don't care if i FIT IN or not, it doesn't bother me, i post what i want and continue posting.
ravenwind43 · 51-55, F
Nah, but I still check things out and post time to time. :)

Eh
It’s about a 50/50 split

@SW-User Nice avi 😁

@Lilymoon thx, sweets!

Not really right now. I haven't been on a lot either.
Banksy83 · 41-45, M
You can come and live with me 'own room'
If you want
Carissimi · F
I’ve been here since the start, and also EP before that, so it feels like “home.” If I’d have joined recently, I doubt I’d feel like I fit in because everyone would be a stranger to me, and there are a lot of trolls and bad actors that came along in more recent times. I know a lot of members, so it makes a big difference.
Tracos · 51-55, M
I'm not sure I fit anywhere anymore
330GTC · 56-60, M
I don't feel like I fit in anywhere.
Wyocowboy · M
Sorry you feel that way.
Boleuskas · M
I fit in any place 😁
Bri89 · 31-35, M
No, I don't. I only come here every now and then to make sure that my weekly writing streak on an app that I use doesn't default back to zero and I have to start all over again. So, I have to keep on writing online even if I don't actually want to.
Iwillwait · M
🙄 no not really.
SageWanderer · 70-79, M
I don’t know about fitting in but then I’m one of those who march to a different drummer. As for lonely; probably about 95% of my day when my wife doesn’t recognize me.
I have my highs and my lows. Sometimes I like it in here other times I just want to disappear.
@swirlie Well you're clearly still angry but I don't know how to help you.

It's not as welcoming as it was.... Once upon a time people would actually engage in dialogue, strange I know but true
If people want to talk i am happy to have a long conversation but if they dont its up to them
Jessmari · 41-45
Not really. I more often feel like I missed some seminar that prepped you for this site.
calicuz · 56-60, M
I feel I fit in and so should you.

Now get in loser, you're on the run with the rest of us!!!

Majorsite · 61-69, M
No, But I feel fit for My age. And not afraid to show it !

I definitely don’t fit in here.

It's the same for me.
