No love

I have a few buddies that I communicate with now and then.

This will be my 3rd blog and I am not getting much support from people here.  A few buddies send me messages or boosters and I try to do the same back too.  I dodn’t know if people just skip me over or what.  I know I am doing this for myself but it is very discouraging when this site is for support and I am not getting much.

Sorry to rant like a brat.  I just wanted to express my thoughts.  Thanks for reading. Hope everyone has a great day despite this downer of a blog.

    Hang in there- it can be kinda hard to get into the swing of things but I know that it will all work out. Keep working hard and you will reach those goals!

    I am sorry you feel that you aren’t getting any support. This is a place for support and encouragement. I hope you will stick around though. Sometimes some of us get close to buddies and we forget that there are others out there too. I try to be there as much as I can. Hang in there! You can do this and you will get support!!!

    I felt the same way, in the beginning. If nothing else, reading the blogs gave me the support and motivation I needed.

    I wish that I had all day to read blogs and make comments. I always feel guilty when I look and see that people have supported me, and i’m not doing so hot at it!
    So….You can do it and thanks for being my buddy!

    Keep posting and people will get used to seeing you around. Sometimes posts get a lot of comments, and sometimes not as many. I’ve had days where all my comments were blocked as spam and I couldn’t respond to anyone. Go figure. I also tend to read most of the blogs, and comment only on ones where I actually have something to say. I just don’t have that many thoughts in my head! But keep typing away. People are reading. :)

    I get a lot of support from reading what other people write and the sense of the community. Keep in mind this is a community site, the more effort you put into being part of the community, the more supportive you are of others… the more likely you will be to get the same in return.

    To be honest though I feel like I’m missing something here. Your blog posts have comments, you have buddies, you have booster notes…. if that’s not support what exactly are you expecting?

    So sorry. There are so many people on this site now and I type very slowly. I am the Grandma of the group, I think and a newbie at computers. If you don’t hear from some of us, keep blogging and we will find you. You can do this. We all want you to keep on keeping on. Have you found some buddies yet? Marge

    Support is nice and very helpful, and if you’re not getting it, it can suck, but always keep in mind that you are doing this for you, and no one else. That is the most important thing. Hang in there. Your greatest supporter is you!!!

    Hang in there, this truly is a great site for support, motivation and inspiration! I have met so many wonderful people here!
    Have a good one!

    So sorry you feel that way. I know for myself in the beginning it was hard learning the ropes. Some of my blogs were barely commented on, but I just kept on blogging! Its kind of therapeutic for me to write in words what is happening in my life. The comments and buddies were icing on the cake!! So heres a BIG WELCOME!!! and a big HUG!!! lots and lots of compasionate and kind people are here on BuddySlim! I’m here if you need a friend!

    Buddy up with meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee…. LOL

    I try to get on here for a few minutes every morning during the week, and reply to as many blogs as I can. Sorry if I have missed some of yours. Anytime you want support and need a helping hand, please send me a message, k?

    Huggggggggggs,
    Shan

    I think any forum is like that….but the more they see you around, the more they comment.
    I just came back on here after being AWOL for a couple of months.

    I know what you mean though….I belonged to another forum for over 4 years, so I was used to being a part of that community so this is different and probably some of the reason why I haven’t been on…I was used to my friends giving me a big swift kick when I needed it and vice versa.

    I am going to add you as one of my friends and we can help each other! OK? Lord knows I need it! LOL

    I am online alot so I am here for you. I no that you sometimes need that extra lift to get you thru any challenges or issues that you may have. God knows I need it everyday or I would be stressed out to the max!! I teach 10 14 months to almost 2 yr olds and when I get home I am stressed out believe you me!!! All the whinning and crying and changing of the diapers…I am actually worn out but I have buddies here that help me along the way and I dont mind having you as my buddy to help you along your way. Just add me and proof I am there. Have a great night my friend. Huggs

    well i have to share with you, i use to feel like that, and then i realized i generally write for myself to motivate my inner peace to get it up and get it out, i sue to look alot to see if anyone sent anything back but, now i come and write what i need to say for the sake of me hearing it and getting it out my emotions for the day, and if anyone touches base , i appreciate it and there are some blogs that have no responses, thats becasue i heard what i needed to hear ..nothing at all

    I’m sorry you feel like that! We are here to support you! Keep on keepin’ on and I promise to do my best to drop by more often. :)

    Hi there. I know that we can all feel like that now and then. Especially when the computer runs glitchy and people can’t post comments, which happens all too often.

    Mostly, I pray that, you can find a few faithful ones who come alongside of you on the journey. Even one or two helps quite a bit.
