Hi susie

I think that there was a problem with the connection tonight, so many logs in and logs out, so don't take it personally, you didn't step on no boby's feet, there were none to be steeped on.


try again.

Hi SW.l have been on this site for about 6 months or so and sometimes don,t no how to answer to peoples diaries as there is so much l would like to say and even when l do a diary entry l fear that l might have said the wrong thing and get a little paranoid if i don,t get many replies .So l think it all depends on one,s mood and how they feel at the time when going on depnet.so don,t feel uncomfortable it is not you .As l just think this site is great and l have had so much support on here.And just in case l haven,t welcomed you to depnet welcome and hang in there an hope you don,t feel to uncomfortable soon take care

Hi Susie................

Sometimes the people in chat get carried away in their own conversations and dont mean to ignore the person coming in.Just try and join in, and if it takes a bit of time, then just enjoy the conversation and atmosphere. Ive felt like you have a few times, but just bear with it and it will get easier. the deppies are a great bunch of people and you will have some nice friends here, if you want them. we havent met yet, but welcome to Dep Hun, and i hope the Deppies will make you feel more at home.

take care ...
Love Lesley xxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Susie,
I am fairly new to chat also.
The first time I went in, I thought I was intruding into a private conversation, but I was assured by the 2 people in there that I wasn't intruding and that chat is for everyone.
Sometimes I am quiet if I don't have anything to add to the topic, but other times I talk a lot.
I have had a few deep and meaningfuls, but only when there are a few people in there.
I have been in there when there was about 7 people and I had trouble following the conversations. Sometimes people use private chat, where they can just talk to one other person. The first time someone did that to me I thought I had upset them as their writing went red.
I think if someone isn't joining in the conversation, then they are happy to just listen in for a while, but I like it when they join in.
I usually just say hello to the a person when they enter, but I leave it up to them to join in if and when they want to.
When I join the chat room, I usually say hello, then quickly scroll down to see what the current conversation is about, and then try to join in on that one....but that's just me.
Hope this helps,
CatWoman

Takes time to get to know people and for them to know you and the best way to do that is to talk. It's easy to get offended on chat, it takes practise to get comfortable with it.
All the best.

I don't go into chat much myself these days, whe I first joined depnet about 12 months ago I would go in almost all the time, sometimes I would hardly talk, and I was just content to listen. Other times, well you couldn't shut me up. Even now sometimes I am quiet on the occasions I do go in.

Any way don't feel like your treading on anyones toes, the chat room is there for everyone

Take Care

looking frward to talking to you soon, its bloody tough when there are more than about 4 or 5 people in there. A suggestion have a look when only one or none are logged in, makes it easier to get started.

Welcome
