anthrosub -> RE: A challenge of sorts... (7/3/2005 8:33:52 AM)

I'm glad somebody has put this on the table. I've been finding myself hard pressed to talk about most BDSM topics because I've read the same things being hashed out over and over. At some point, the board has the information and simply needs to be searched for advice and opinions.
Here's my offering...
"What do you consider were the key events and people that contributed to shaping your life to what it is today?"
For example, I moved a lot (15 times by the age of 15) all over the U.S. and overseas. I lived at three places twice (with a few years passing inbetween before relocating back). From age 15 to 33, I moved another 10 times. I had ample opportunity to contrast and compare if you will. Different parts of this country are almost like different countries in some ways. This experience gave me a lot of insight into how people come see and understand the world around them.
But I was also always and forever the new kid on the block. I was "different" from the other kids growing up and never understood why until I was much older. Some kids targeted me for harassment and for about 3 to 5 years, going to school was a daily hell. I never had any friendships that lasted more than a year or so because I was always moving. School work was tough bacause I was constantly having the rug pulled out from under me when relocating to a new area.
Some people think I'm anti-social but it's really that I've never lived in one place long enough during my youth to have whatever it is that others have take root in my being. There's a lot more but I think you get the idea.
