Wish I could rep you all, but I need to spread it around some first.

Perhaps the mods could start a forum for this OP. Then those who are interested in reading the same 2-3 threads over and over again (but titled something different every couple days) could go in there and copy and paste their responses from the LAST thread she started.

I usually ignore the OP's threads, and honestly, I don't think anyone on here is doing her any favors by reading them.

If the responders would stop giving her the attention she so obviously craves, then she would have to move over to the relationship forum, where she belongs. Instead, she acts like a child because people answer her like parents.

Perhaps those on the relationship forum would have better luck knocking some sense into her thick head. Even better, maybe somebody with the same issues can offer their solutions.

if you knew somebody was sick in bed with a broken leg, would you poke a stick at her leg over and over again?
each time somebody responds to this unbalanced child it is like poking a stick at a sick person.
She needs more help than anybody on this forum can give. If you feel the need to mother somebody (either in real life or cyber) please go adopt a pet from a shelter. it will do much more good than trying to" help" this child on this forum.

Please quit posting common sense like this. You are making me want to rep you over and over again. It is causing a lot of frustration in my life and giving me PTSD. I will have to start a thread called, "It's all NO KUDZU's fault" and take drugs illegally in a dungeon while being forced to work 12 hours a week for a slave driver.

That's a bit of an overreaction, IMO. She may be immature, (and aggravating), and I don't have a lot of sympathy for her predicaments, but I don't think she's "unbalanced".

If people enjoy giving advice, then isn't it up to them to decide if it's worth doing or not? Usually I hate it when people say "if you don't like the TV show, you have a remote" but in this case I think it applies - if you see a thread started by txtqueen don't click on it - and leave others free to respond as they see fit.

Your last sentence probably applies to a large % of all threads on this forum - it indeed would do more good to adopt a pet from the shelter than to try and help, but I've already got 4 of those.

I signed off early last night lest I become unbalanced.

Person A: "Why do you keep hitting yourself in the head with that club?"

Person B: "Because it feels so good when I stop."

Or they can just make a stickied thread called txtqueen-the saga continues.....

I like the idea of a sticky thread for her. Then we wouldn't have to worry where she would turn up and send my BP sky high.
