Who is Steve?
I'm just wondering who Steve is? I received an email from him this
evening. Yes my incoming email works. My outgoing SMTP has had issues for months and it's annoying. Steve says that I may be a very nice person but I obviously have some emotional issues. Who doesn't Steve? From Steve: "When you can't get any attention by mentioning that your marriage is on the rocks, you resort to spiders coming in from the ceiling with overtones of being haunted - may I suggest that what is haunting you is not anything so horrid - just a case of look at me and possibly a bit of your conscience." Perhaps I have a guilty conscience. I'm sorry that I didn't say goodbye to my grandmother like I should have before she died. I'm very sorry that my mother and I never resolved our lifelong issues we had. The fact that I said what I did about spiders was not to get attention but perhaps get some insight on any avenues medically I hadn't thought about. I haven't talked about because I don't feel this is an all together appropriate place sometimes. I have friends I can talk to off the board and on. As I remember this place is somewhere I feel safe and confortable with others. I have been here for a while and like many of the folks here. From Steve: "I am not saying anything to you to be unkind - I am just trying to pull you back into reality and help you be the person you should be. You don't need to make up stories of the bizzare to be liked - or always be the center of attention. Learn to be content with yourself. I realize that you have a bit of a weight problem, that stems from self esteem - get that under control a bit and you will start to feel better about yourself. Stop feeding your emotional needs with food and stories. Concentrate on your glass work and on being an honest person and you will attain the attention you desire in a good way and not in a way where people are constantly talking behind your back and not liking you very much." If you think I'm making up stories you are a very sad person. If folks talk behind another's back then it's not my problem is it Steve? How would you know anyhow unless you are one of them. Even is you are one of the folks talking behind my back, who cares? I don't even know you. BTW - I'm very content with myself. Where does the weight thing come into place? How in the world would you know what I look like? From Steve: "By the way, your student is interesting - I am sure we both know why - this is another way of gleaning attention and trying to prove your worth - please stop all this nonsense. Your poor husband must be in constant turmoil!" What way is this student interesting from any other's? She is a very nice woman who is house bound most days. She doesn't drive because she has a seizure disorder. Her beads are very nice and they are up on eBay under her ID. Are you trying to say this is me? Get real Steve. I was trying to help boost her confidence in selling items on eBay. If you saw my postings about her you would know her name. You would also know her eBay ID if you even looked and maybe contact her about her identity. I'm sure she would love to laugh in your face. So Steve the ball is in your court. What did you gain from this email? Why send it? What is the need? |

Is this the infamous kill-file person? I forgot all about him. Well
now at least we all know he's still somewhat bored out of his mind to be picking on me. I just read through some old stuff and had to roll my eyes all over again. |

I just read through some old stuff and had to roll my eyes all over again. Somehow I seriously doubt Ron the holy roller is your 'Steve'. Did you check his email address to see if it looked familiar or legit... or *try* to reply to his email? Seriously doubt anyone here can help you with this one if you don't know who he is. -- Polly -- don't spook my groove... icq 13968113 http://saxoncreek.com/ |

I haven't read any of Ron's posts or even know what he is all about.
Steve's email is . The name he posts under is BeadsofGlass Forever. No I didn't reply to his email because of my smtp problems, not that I really would want to. |

Starlia, It sounds like Steve was just trying to help you - just not
very nicely and in a VERY forward manner. So maybe just chalk it up to mislead good intention and hope that if he was well intentioned that he is perhaps more gentle & loving in the future? I'm sure there is a love of humanity in his thoughts for you so maybe choose to take the love and ignore the offense. Perhaps you will serve to teach him (and us) something in the long run. Just a thought... JC www.jcherrellglass.com http://stores.ebay.com/JC-Herrell-Glass |

I didn't seen anything that needed to be posted publicly, by you or by him. Please, unless someone is verbally abusive or making threats, abide by the rules of ettiquette that keep private emails private. I was embarrassed to read this. -- -Kalera http://www.beadwife.com |

JC and Kalera I'm sorry to have posted this. I see that I am not
welcome here and will leave. I do love this group and love the support offered. However, if you guys feel the same way Steve does then I see that I have no business being here. I'm sure there won't be any "please come backs" so I won't bother looking. |

(posted & emailed) Starlia, you are having a very emotional reaction right now to something that I am sure with time you will see is not that big of a deal. You are certainly not unwelcome here, as I know you will realize soon when you cool down. You are well-loved, including your eccentricities. Saying that I am not comfortable with you posting private email to you on the group is not the same as saying that I feel the way that Steve does... I don't know who Steve is, let alone how he feels. His email contained no threats and, while it may have been misled, it also seemed to contain concern for you, not malice. It is not appropriate to post private emails unless the email contains outright verbal abuse or threats... that's just simple ettiquette. Yes, it was embarrassing to read it; it should have been dealt with privately. The bottom line is, yes, we know you're a drama queen with a compelling imagination, but we also know you have a heart of gold. Do you need to come down to earth at times? Yes, I will agree with that. But that doesn't mean anyone wants you to go away. I think I can safely speak for most of the people on this group when I say that we care about you a lot and want the best for you, and would like you to stick around so we can be at least some kind of support as you make it through this rather rocky part of your life, so we can see you come safely through the other side. -- -Kalera http://www.beadwife.com |
