Ask Me Anything: Steamboat Edition.

A book. I'm not sure which one.

What specifically is it (without names, obviously) that causes you to feel welcome / unwanted here sometimes?

What is something positive in your life right now?
Also, what is something you're looking forward to?

Feeling ignored. Anytime I feel like my opinion isn't given due consideration (it doesn't have to be the end solution), or anytime I feel like someone is only listening to refute or argue, and not to understand. I've tried being diplomatic, I've tried being a pain, I've tried being polite and I've tried being a menace and nothing works. Nothing. People want ideas from people who aren't me.

Positive thing in my life right now: My back hurts slightly less than it did yesterday.
Looking forward to: starting my own business.

Is it possible there's some projection going on, or maybe some assumptions about notices?

I promised to answer every question in this thread. It is now that I will remind everyone that sometimes "mind your business" qualifies as an answer. This is a thread for getting to know me, not a thread for psychoanalysis.

Fair enough. Analysis wasn't my intention, but I can see where it could be taken that way. Apologies for causing discomfort.

No worries. Did you have another question?

A million, lol. I always do. But I want to spend time with the idea of how to know other folks' boundaries, first.

What's the meaning behind your beautiful new emblem?
