Have you lived a sheltered life?

Okay :)

how is she closed minded? I don't get that

@Fernie: I don't either but I'm not her or him. :)

@Justpeaceandlove: its not an insult just so you know. i've had friends that dont understand the meaning of close minded. i suppose what i mean is close minded means you dont have an open concept of the colorful side of things ... or do you? theres the logical and the creative side of the brain. most people say this is what it is and how it should be (logical)meaning staying within the lines. most people dont color outside the box and are afraid or dont like having an open view. like for instance.... a homeless man... logical thinker: the man is just jobless and lazy. a homeless man... creative thinker: maybe he has a mental problem, drug problem, that caused him to become jobless or even maybe he's got those problems on top of losing family members. and things havent worked out.... make sense? :)
i can give you another example if you need. :)

@iCrochetstuff: I probably have the most open mind than most people.

I try to ask people what they think instead of assuming I know anything about them.

But thank you for sharing your thoughts on the matter. ;)

@Justpeaceandlove: thats really awsome to hear. :) i dislike close minded people. as for being sheltered you really are not worldy as they say. i grew up sheltered and expanded my horizons i got into some sketchy situations. so i stay at home mostly now, lol. and youre welcome.

@Justpeaceandlove: as for being imaginative thats a more complex style of being open minded. some people have creative minds. some dont and its okay that you arent creative. i'm sure you arent the only one. :)

@iCrochetstuff: I don't dislike closed minded people. I think they are just that until others help them to become open minded. It's not easy and can only wait until they are ready to become open. :)

I think we all get into situations we don't like. Staying home for a while is okay to regroup but I think it's healthy to get back out. :)

@iCrochetstuff: definition of close minded:'having a mind firmly unreceptive to new ideas or arguments:having or showing rigid opinions or a narrow outlook.' I see none of that anywhere in her post... "I try to ask people what they think instead of assuming I know anything about them." but you didn't....you accused her of being not sheltered but close minded.

@iCrochetstuff: i'm very creative. I was trying to be kind with my words. What i see is not creative but a lot of sex craved people here. Lol

@Fernie: thanks love. 🌹😍

@Justpeaceandlove: " What i see is not creative but a lot of sex craved people here." EXACTLY!!! It just ruins the site

@Fernie: It does. If it weren't for the few who are NOT sex craved I would have been off a long time ago. 💖

@Justpeaceandlove: I feel the same way...the internet attracts the dregs unfortunately. Glad you're here!

@Fernie: thanks Fernie. I'm glad you are here too. Glad I stayed. :)

@Fernie: exactly. That's what I said

@iCrochetstuff: ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

@iCrochetstuff: that's not what you said love. Might want to re-check what you wrote.

Exactly. And if u read it right I never said those words you quoted.. She did. Being sheltered and not having an imagination are two very different things I was kindly giving her a definition of the two words. @Fernie:

@Justpeaceandlove: being sheltered has nothing to do with imagination. Sheltered children are not exposed to the world. I gave a clear example and definition of the meaning of being close minded

@iCrochetstuff: not being mean but what is your point. Who are you trying to convince?

That's good u have an imagination :) @Justpeaceandlove:

@iCrochetstuff: if you would have asked why I posted the question instead of assuming I wanted a direct answer from you you would have responded differently. Understand?

@iCrochetstuff: have you ever been wrong...in your life...just curious
