How many of you have told your life story here?

Not just little bits and pieces like "I'm having a bad day" or such, but much of your life history. I notice that the older members generally don't say much at all about themselves, while the more youthful ones tend to open up more... sooo have you said much about yourself?

Hmm, I mostly said some bits and pieces here and there.. More in some threads (that are less visited lol).

Sometimes the 'more' ie the bigger part of the story can be 'too long' or difficult to read, for some people.. Maybe other members just have their stories scattered around or in older threads? :)
 
Oh ok... I sometimes find it kind of sad when some of the members say a lot of heavy stuff about themselves and it gets mostly ignored...

i think im very open about 'my life story'
bits put here n there on diff threads, id be too paranoid to put it all up incase i bored ppl:confused:thats why i try keeping my posts short ::p:
 
The subject is quite sensitive, I always seem to hit a massive writers block a little bit in. Never been able to write more then a small portion of it. Well, not that it's long, I'm only 19 after all. If I were to write it though, it would most likely be written in such a manor that it would be an ordeal to read. And an ordeal to write, for that matter.

On top of that it's very complicated and confusing.. I doubt I could write it good enough to share and elaborate the experience vividly, which is essential for understanding the entire situation that began at the age of 5.

I posted a lot of long, boring auto-biographical info when I first came on the forum many months ago

but it was promptly ignored by all the elite butt-kissers

Yes. It would be an ordeal to write, and an ordeal to read. Plus sharing in general is very difficult for me to begin with. In conversations I let others talk about themselves, which most people are quite content to do. True, some will eventually tell me I never talk about myself. Even when I'm trying to, it's hard.

I don't remember that. I was probably too busy kissing someone's butt at the time. ::p:

There are some things I would not blatantly just say on the forum. I have a lot of things in my life/history that hurt me very much that can't be shared either at all or without trust. A lot of it is just fear that my weaknesses will be used against me.

My selfishness makes me feel better now: so I'm not the only one in this situation.When I saw I had received only a reply (and this was moderator's post)to my very boring and pathetic experience, I was decided to leave the forum and look for another one.It was like a joke, being ignored even on a SA forum.But I went on posting here, dunno why.Sometimes I feel as if all my posts are rather boring monologues.I thought my English is too bad...

I feel like a blabbermouth on here. I tend to say a lot simply because it's the only place I ever say anything about myself. I dont even care if people listen, just to have said it is an improvement. I think coyote needs to say more though.. :p

or maybe i'll just go read his auto-biography.

I've said quite a lot on here. I tend to be open like that.

The last few years of my life are documented in my blog. Almost everyday in quite a lot of detail. I feel pleased I have written this down so I my story is not misrepresented that my truth of what I have lived through is documented.

The next page I want to write in my life is to finish a marathon.

I would have no problems whatsoever telling my life story. Problem is that would take way too long. No one would care. I have said very personal things on threads before and they have been Ignored. That doesn't bother me. But I don't really want to waste the time to type it out anymore. But there are people on here who I call friends and I think they are interested so I save it for the IM now........ when it works.

Same here.

Yeah, that's what keeping me from trying to write it as well.. I willl surely be able to do it if spread over allot of days, it'll still be hard, but it's doable, sort of. But it's hardly worth the effort and reminiscing when it's going to end up with the other dead threads.

No offense to anyone of course, it's entirely understandable that they don't want to read an entire personal novel-sized thread that might not be interesting at all to them, but the fact remains that, unless it's written for yourself, it's most likely wasted effort.
