I Love Hugs

@Skele-pop666: I only brought up the satan thing because I saw the 666 in your name. Again, I don't know much about you yet so try to glean what I can.

At least you can join groups on line to fit in and maybe on occasion, go to a convention or hang outs when they happen.

To give you an idea of the odd mix I live... I'm a Christian, a biker, a Cuban who is with a Norse woman and I work in the tech industry. I'm also into Steam Punk. But I make it work by a bit of conformity with each group and I don't judge.

You might have to do a little conformity to get along in that town. But don't hide who you are or stop being who you are.

I can see your point :) but I thank you for not judging me and for actually trying to understand my position on the subject :)
That seems like a fun mix.

I'm trying to conform, I'm just afraid that in order to fit in I need to take up drugs or alcohol again (our town was notorious for having a lot of pubs, in fact, in the 1960s it was recorded as having the second-highest number of pubs per square mile in England, which for a small town was considered impressive. I don't think we have such a high ranking now, but it's probably close, so you can tell what our favourite activity is here)

@Skele-pop666: My pleasure Skele. :) You should see our dinner table... I'm Christian and so is my 13 year old son. My GF is undeclared when it comes to God, Her two sons: One is Agnostic and the other is Hindu. We all get along well.

Doing drugs to Fit in is BS. When I'm hanging around bikers, some do drugs, I just pass it to the next person. I don't judge those who smoke and they don't judge me. Acceptance is key.

I'll tell you a little more about my life so you can see there are so interesting possibilities when you don't judge:

My son and I go over to my girlfriend's first husband's parents house for Thanksgiving. We sit at the table as family. Her ex husband and his sisters and their families come to our house for Christmas.

My ex girlfriend and I chat regularly. We have a mutual daughter. That relationship predates my marriage of 12 years. (of which I am now divorced of coarse.. with a GF)

You'd be surprised at what acceptance and NOT judging can do for society. But we have to be just as accepting as we expect others to be. We DON'T have to change who we are at all.
