My boyfriend broke up with me two weeks before Valentine's Day, in one of the most horrible fashions, for horrible reasons, and after doing horrible things. And yet...he won't leave me alone. Why? D: I hate it. I told my Salvationist guy friend about it, and he really scared the kid off lol. He texts me a few times a month now, trying really hard to get me to be friends with him. But I've made it pretty clear that I don't ever want to see/speak to him again. I don't need to surround myself with negative people like that. If I were you, I'd press your phone's OFF button and leave it that way for one weekend. Show him some tough love. And this is only after you explain to him that you need your space. If talking to him doesn't work, follow the above suggestion. ;) I'm single now, and it's not so bad. I don't have to deal with any whiny boys anymore for awhile. :P[/quote] Okay, 1- I love the name, mostly because it involves the word "sammich" 2- I love the advice- specifically "I don't need to surround myself with negative people like that." That's a lot of maturity right there, which we love. 3- Welcome to our corner of the interwebs, that is, assuming you're not an old member in disguise. :D

I had an account on here in 2007, which was short-lived because I had some opinions that some of the more immature members really didn't agree with, and my profile was covered in awful things from those people. Honestly, I don't see what's wrong with giving a gay member words of advice and encouragement...but it was starting to get a little scary at the time so I left, fearing that everyone was scary mean like that. I came back here today with an account I'd created last year (was going to rejoin then, but never got around to using the account), in hopes that things had changed since then. And they have, and I see that a lot of people seem to be mature and helpful, so much more so than back then. I wanted to find a place where I could sort out my religious struggles and have a support network...no one around where I am is very religious, and so all I have managed to come up with is an Agnostic sort of belief because I've never had any sort of guidance and religion is very confusing to me. Right now I believe there's a higher power, but I can't say for sure what. I want to look into Christianity, because I really enjoyed bible camp...but there are so many different denominations and belief systems, and the Bible is very wordy and I have no serious local youth group to go to for guidance. Anyway, off-topic haha. Thanks for the welcome. And my username stems from my name, and my love of sandwiches ;P

Awesome. Sorry people weren't friendly before. I hope we've chased the majority of those away with our over-friendly (and sometimes over-bearing) nature. :P Welcome back, and I hope you stick around! Also, as far as a support network, we're quite like a family here. We'll give you as much support, advice, and encouragement as you want here. I noticed you went to the debate forum- Just saying now, know that things that are said there are never carried to the rest of the site. So, you could get into a huge disagreement with someone and in the next thread over by Open Discussion- it's like it never happened. One big happy family again. :) So if you ever feel like you need to walk away from it, everywhere else is fair game. :)

Sounds great. Thanks for the tip. And, I was probably in middle school when I was here last, so I'm able to handle things better now since I'm going to college in August (w00t haha). I'm gonna leave this thread before I spin it anymore off topic. :P

Miss Sammich, this is MyPraize. Off-topic is what we do best! And welcome to our slice of the internet!

I don't randomly stop people in the middle of talking irl and say "now, hold on, we're getting off topic. If you want to talk about that go start a conversation elsewhere" :P Anyways, hello sammich! I think I remember you! I remember the profile picture at least :) And yep, the debate forum can get a bit tense sometimes but as long as nobody takes it personal it pretty much never bleeds out into the other facets of our interactions around here. Also the debate forums a bit dead nowadays anyways...

I LIKE SAMMICHES!!!!! :D ... I want Subway now. DX
