FEELING SORRY FOR MYSELF THREAD

[cut*glass*amethyst]

Hi everyone - I am a widow and really miss my wife. I am lonely and retired and have very bad depression and self esteem.

Having said that, I am really fit and youthful looking for my age, I am pretty wealthy (I certainly couldn't spend the mountain of money I've amassed). And I have a lot of spare time to devote to a partner so all in all I make a pretty good catch.

If you want to learn how to have as bad self esteem as me, please contact me. 😞

 the thread was sardonic - for once amethyst has it right - I was channelling a thread from a week or two ago (it's since been removed) where a man claiming to be depressed with low self esteem kept ticking off what made him and his life so great.

Well, I guess when on  doesn't have any original ideas of one's own, channelling somebody else's story is the next best thing to cut and pasting.

And proves the OP has no clue of just how depression, even mild clinic depression, affects those afflicted.

Let's hope for their sake they never find out how it works first hand, but if they do that they will not face similar ridicule as they, others like them, and the button pushers, enjoy handing out.

Good story, channelling another poster?

But the least the OP could have done was made it in any way interesting. Was this meant to inject some interest in the boards? Total fail.

What a nothing of a thread.

And yet people respond, including me     😮

So even nothing threads have a place I suppose. 

Of course it is sardonic, how could anyone thing otherwise.

OP whoever you are, your post no# 7 is way out of line.

[sprinklespowerpuff]

Absolutely, it's not even as if you know each other in the real world or do you? I doubt it. Would you be game enough to go at each other like this if that were the case. Again, I doubt it. Seriously, these boards are so limited. You can't REALLY know anyone here.

at each other? Am3 made no retaliation that I saw, even though no one would have blamed her......
