Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
In my life, why do I give valuable time to people who don't care if I live or die?
In my life, Why do I smile at people who I'd much rather kick in the eye?
I was looking for a job & then I found a job... & Heaven knows I'm miserable now 🎶
I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour, but heaven knows I'm miserable now. "Oh, you've been in the house too long" she said, and I naturally fled...
"In my life, why do I give valuable time to people who don't care if I die"

I love love music.
Tyvm. I took a quick listen.
You are very welcome.
Yassss! Amen!
You said it best! Tysvm fren! 😊
I ponder the same question fren! The answer I always come up, ( not knowing your particular situation). GOD doesn't give us more than we can handle, but gives the strongest battles to his toughest warriors!
Light Always beats Dark! Good Always Outweigh the Bad. Even when I can't see it, and, hell,, half the time I don't see it. I was just thinking tonight about things in life and how a whatever diagnosis I got few weeks ago! I've not shared. Who's gonna take care of me? I'm the caregiver! Lol.
Thank God for GA! I rant, I know. We give time to people because We Care, and have Compassion, Empathy, and maybe a little ( oh) I understand! Imo. I'm probably wrong. But, that's me!
Boundaries are hard to set.
Don’t do it. Sometimes we have to move on from narcissists. It’s painful, but it’s necessary. God bless you and have a great day.
https://x.com/NarcWise/status/1763541089753993542?s=20 I think you will agree...
ALL of those and More!
That is a very thorough list.
I agree! I've just started working with one. This past week. Figured it out the first we worked together. Called Her out on it! I don't play anymore after having dealt with narcissistic it almost killed Me, personally!
Every man who walks in, wants her! Omg! Yup, they do girl, go get them! She's pathetic. But.... in reality, she has a problem. Ya know? She has low self esteem. She's not very attractive and in the 3 days I've worked with her, she fucked half our clientele!
Come on! Yet, she thinks, yup, I'll get a smile out of this one. Or I ran this one off. She's 29 with a 9 yr old and a 9 mnth old. The baby daddy is a drunk with a lottery addiction. Omg!
Who am I to judge. Yet, she wants to talk about all these other men! Bitch, idc I'm 47. I could careless! Your a ho! Is what I think, instinct, but, I pray for her! God knows, I pray for her! Idk what else to do!
Narcissistic people are omg! They will have you almost dead, before you can get out!
Number one question I ask Narcissistic people is are you okay? Try it and watch their head spin
I Know! I’ve had a few in my life, and I am free of them now. Praise the Lord for that. Especially when they’re your family, it’s so hurtful. I’m moving on. Severed all ties. Best decision I’ve made! 😂😂😂
I'm so happy for you! I been there! It's an awful thing to go thru, idk about you, but, I wasn't "me" anymore! Omg! All my family and friends ( which little I had) thought I'd gone mental because of the situation. I left 5 yrs ago now! NO CONTACT! NO NOTHING! I moved 4 states away, changed ph numbers and went silent!
they want us divided and labelled. they want us to do it too. somebody's gotta break the chain.
I should have scrolled down LOL
Hear this song that was being quoted/shared https://youtu.be/TjPhzgxe3L0
Just a question? Break what chain? If your speaking of ancestral, then I see that. I'm just asking.
