to feel a bit paranoid sometimes?

[nursenancy]

I have changed my name for this as I fear I am just being a bit hormonal. But lately I seem to be 'ignored' on threads.

For instance: I join a thread to comment on the OP and there seems to be a private joke going on all around me which has deviated from the OP, which I am apparently not wanted at party to.

Or:

I make a point and then about 5 more people come along and make the same point. They get appluaded yet my post was first! Is it just that people don't click 'refresh' when posting or what?

I am beginning to take this personally.
Tell me if I am just being pathetic.

It sometimes happens to me.

I am sure I do it to other people.

Just one of those things - and I often don't refresh before I post.

Erm... take a break?

Seriously, if you are genuinely feeling 'upset' at the sense you are being 'excluded' from what is a MASSIVE internet (ie, strangers) forum, maybe it's not for you

You're being pathetic!

I get that all the time too! Even though I am obviously the wittiest person in the entire history of MN and everything. S'just one o' them things I reckon. Not sure how you could change things.. C'est la vie!

this happens to me all the time, as i'm always right before everyone else

seriously though, don't take it personal like

Sounds like irrational hormones. Just keep posting
