Ok now that I have your attention.. I have a good question.. Who on DS, when you first joined, made you feel the most excepted..

The two here when I first came on that made me feel worthwhile was Pixiedst and Rubyblue.. They taught me about trolls. They also taught me what good friends really are.. I will always love them for that..

So who were the first ones that made you feel good here.. besides Doug... lmao..

the very first friend that made me feel welcome and accepted was lostinarizonia. I remember feeling really lonely. When I would post know one would really pay attention to me. There was kinda this cliche group that seemed to run the board for a while. But Once they left I was able to warm up to many. and i think ds is wonderful and lostinarizonia will always be a dearest friend

Well the very first person was Pixie..we have a lil joke..I tell her "I am her biggest fan"

Jonzey62 - harem builder and groomer (LOL)

My friend who has left but used to be Hunter74.

Scurrie - very nice man that helped me to deal with suicides.

Nadareal3 - still one of my best friends.

tdj413 aka Jane Doe - taught me the ropes & made me laugh so hard with her amazing wit.

OMG this seems like such a long time ago now even though its only a few months. Let me see now.... oh yes, the first person to hug me was someone that i dont wish to talk about cos she was a lying fake. Apart from that it was my good friend KCJ is still my bezzie and KJ1951 who is amazing. I am very fortunate now cos i have some wonderful friends, but these 2 were the first ones to help me. Hugs Yvonnexxxx

Two comes to my mind but they have both since left DS and truth be told, good riddance.

deleted_user 09/02/2008

The first person to offer me a hand in friendship was scaredandscarred. She is the BEST!!! I have also talked to avaloninheart but she is not taking any friends but thats ok I understand why.

deleted_user 09/02/2008

I forgot to mention liveyourlife0000 she was also one who made me feel welcome but I haven't seen her since.

I was first in the bereavement group before coming to the depression group. GoldlenLox18, debreeze, bebu, and Moe11 helped me a lot there, and we still "talk"! After I joined depression, it was JaneDoe, Jana, and GoBlue who got me through, among many other "older" members.

I remember poetrywriters hug word for word'welcome to DS,know that you're loved very much.'!Urloved,Hello again!!!!!!! xxx
