Depends on what you are looking at - do I feel unappreciated as a woman and "meet material" or as a "forum poster"?

That said, it has actually never entered my head - I post when I suddenly have the urge. I meet when I suddenly have the urge.

Does not really matter what others think - you ll always find some who appreciate you and some who do not.

I take it you clearly do OP, cause you’ve started this thread.

I think some of my finest work gets overlooked. For example, my ‘serotonin’ comment was completely over looked in a thread about things that make you happy the other day, I wouldn’t mind but someone said ‘bums’ and got 84 reply and quotes and people literally wetting themselves, but I put it down to I’m operating at a very different level.

I agree with this. I think there are some right funny, kind, thoughtful folk on here but they wouldn’t know it because I don’t tell them. I appreciate the input of a great many forumites, particularly over the last year or so, the humour and feel good stories have parted the clouds when rain has threatened to overwhelm.

There and to the left a bit

Not in the slightest - am not here looking for appreciation so can't feel under appreciated by default.

If I happen to be appreciated as a result of my presence that's a pleasant by-product for sure, but it's not my reason for being here.

Those I truly appreciate being appreciated by are people I know as friends and who know me - not random people on an Internet forum.

I wonder if those who answered no it's because they have realistic expectations and do come looking for validation and some who do look for it and find it. I'm guessing people would be more likely to say the first but would not admit to the second.

I do think forum interaction isnt as interactionary as when I was first here. People would bounce off people a bit more, or just make it known if they found something funny or struck a cord. I know I become a bit lazy even if I found something funny/interesting I will just smile to myself rather than clog up the thread with a . If you mean that sort of appreciation rather than the does anybody love me type of appreciation.

No, appreciation is not something I seek or crave from strangers, just as in life. I befriend people and it matters to me that they know I appreciate them and I assume it is reciprocated in some small measure.

"It’s not what it used to be. I preferred what it was like years ago. Which did feel a lot more accepting because people were riffing off each other all the time. There’s still moments of it here and a couple of decent op’s about but it’s lost a lot of it’s charm.

I do think personalities bounced off each other more frequently a few years ago but I also think it's less to do with a change of personalities and more to do with the very phoney sentimentality and insincere sincerity that pervades and gives the upper hand to professional victims.

Be kind granny

Be kind

See ! I was kindness personified. Just authentic.

Where's the sack cloth and ashes.... I'll pretend to be forgiven."

I think sack cloth and ashes have moved to Wednesdays with the ever popular ‘Sach Cloth and Ash Wednesday’ thread.

I have my new avatar ready and raring to go

Actually, I really admired your post the other day about 'thingy' I thought it had power and lack of self pity... i didn't respond for my own reasons , I just appreciated is silently......

I had enough forced appreciation at school for the record

There are times I wonder why I post things but it's not that I'm unappreciated.

I know I provide value to the forums. The forums are better because of my contribution. The forums need everyone to contribution to be good.

But sometimes it feels like I'm talking into a void and no one can hear me and that makes me feel like I'm wasting my time.

"Do you feel unappreciated on here?

"

It’s hard to feel unappreciated in an online forum of strangers I don’t care about

No, because I don't seek validation or approval from people online...
