dukey said:Hi -
My name is dukey. I've been lurking in the corners for a while but rarely posted. I think I'll take part more.
Nice to meet you.

PS - I'm kinda shy, but I'll talk to just about anyone.

warmhorizon said:OK, here's how I see it. You're crazy shy and these "crows" have serious issues. So fuck 'em (not literally obviously ). It's not difficult to make new friends, I made most of my closest friendships through school, college and work. Plus don't forget a lot of people may already be trying to be your friend and you haven't noticed, girls especially find it hard to show they want to be friends because a lot of the time they're worried the guy will think they're hitting on them. I almost missed out on one of my closest friends that way (sorry Gemma! :tongue
Most important of all is NEVER cahnge who you are to fit in. You think you should "crack some skulls"? If you don't want to then don't do it! I know it SOUNDS easy and it's actually much harder in real life, but don't forget in the interim you have literally thousands of people on here who are more than willing to lend an ear.
So stop your bitch ass moaning and find yourself some REAL friends! I mean please, if I hung with my old group of friends just because I was worried about not meeting any new friends right away then I'd be just like them: Self-mutilated drugged up loonies! :tongue:
God! I just keep on talking don't I! :redface: Anyway, so, yeah, get to it. :smile:
dukey said:Thanks for the bump. I never realized how good it feels to see your name on the front page.
Here's one of my problems:
Daily I get hit in the groin by the same group of guys. I don't want to sound like a puss or anything, but it hurts a lot. All I really want to do is fit in. I don't really have a heap of real friends.
I know the why-for is their jealousy of my size. It's like a group of crows chasing in a dogfight with an eagle. Sometimes I wish I could just be a crow and fit in (literally and figuratively). I think, often, that I ought to crack some skulls, but it's not in me. Y'know it's like I said I'm a nice guy -- like Flanders.
What do you all reckon I should do?

PS - they say it's a dog eat dog world out there. but have you ever seen a dog eat another dog?
Notbigenuff said:Dukey,
We all want to fit in - but I think you need to ask yourself if you really want to fit in with people who apparently can only express themselves by hurting others. Though frankly, why anyone would look at you and think of you as a target with those arms is beyone me...
And, I guess I am a little confused as I've never known another guy to even want to come close to accidently touching another man's groin - let alone doing it on purpose. What kind of situation are you in that they have the opportunity to do this to you? Wrestling maybe?
