Hi I'm Eleanor. I'm a student who struggles with any social interaction. I like talking online as I feel less awkward so if anyone wants to message me I would be grateful :blush::blush: and not from 7am to 4:30pm. Thanks :blush::wave::wave:

    Awww Eleanor, welcome to our boards. :)

    I do understand how difficult it must feel when socially interacting, but I am sure that once you increase your post count by reaching out to us on the boards, then you will be able to private message more. It might be possible for our admins @Aife[/USER] and [USER="95844"]Mike to enable your messaging better, but presently they are off duty until the morning.

    What hobbies do you enjoy? Can you play a musical instrument? I play guitar and sometimes piano. I also love board games such as Monopoly and Snakes & Ladders, the latter on my phone. Do you have any pets? I've a very large dog, a hairy cross between a Pyrenean mountain dog and an Afghan hound with massive paws, and we have an owl. Both keep a respectful distance from each other, haha!

    Wishing you all the best,

    ~ Belle

    Hey Eleanor!

    Welcome to the boards, it's lovely to have you here! :wave:

    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    Heya Eleanor. 👋🏻👋🏻Welcome-Great to have you here
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
