Miss-appropriation

  It’s a shame when familiar faces announce that they are departing, but the need to renew and change is part of life, so I do not condemn but just feel a bit sad for a while.
  
  If you are unable to physically give someone a hug and wish them well, then attempting to express the same feelings via a web-site is quite difficult. Because let’s face it, we are not all capable of elegant written expression..
  
  Occasionally I have tried to honestly express concern, affection or companionship to girls here, and I suspect that I’ve not always employed the correct tone, phrasing or structure. (I do think that web communication can appear abrupt to the reader and subsequently be misinterpreted). Also, because of the lack of physical contact, unless you are entirely confident about somebody, I think you are psychologically more ‘guarded’ when you communicate through the web than in normal circumstances. I know I am, because the fact is, a teeny tiny proportion of people are just a bit weird.
  
  So, if anyone has received a message from me that appears intrusive, nosey, direct or just down right rude, I do apologise. I’m still stumbling a little as I discover who I really should be, so anything miss-appropriate is a reflection of a nervous, anxious and frankly quite shy person, edging closer to engaging properly with a community that she would like to be part of.
