Everything I needed to know about life, I learned from LiveJournal.

I was thinking about the situation of the anorexics - some of whom are the STUPIDEST people I have ever come across in my life, example being the girl who took an eight-message-long thread before understanding that she was leaving comments in my journal - and wondering why some LiveJournals attract drama and others don't

Don't worry; I had to bite my keyboard when I read some of their responses to your application. One of them I couldn't bite my tongue on, which is why you see my response in pretty moms. That is such a pile of garbage - just because you have a kid you forfeit any needs as a human being?? It is just a reflection of immaturity and the unrealistic expectations teenagers have about motherhood. You don't stop being a person - and all of your needs/issues fade into oblivion - just because you become a mom. Quite the opposite - they all become magnified once you have a kid because you work hard not to pass your flaws along!

Your biggest mistake is that you are way prettier than any of them are. Trust me, I looked at some of their pictures and you are the prettiest by far. So they are nit-picking and inventing things to pick at, and clawing at your weakness (which is to be liked). You aren't the only mom in that group; one of the members is a 27 year old mother who is probably cowering in fear of being found out.

THe other thing I don't like about that group is that the rules state: "#&! Do NOT argue with or slam the members" and yet the title of the community is "The Harsh and the Beautiful." That places the moderators in the category "can dish it but can't take that." Grow the fuck up.

And you are so far away from stuck up. It was months before you even put your photo up for anyone to see because you were so shy.
