FabSwingers.com forum: Never knowing how to begin

By (user no longer on site) OP

So, it's been a while since I posted in fab. Maybe a few months.

Lots of name changes but profile pictures I think I remember.

My point is, how does everyone begin again when they've been away? How do you get back in the flow of what's going on?

Do you just watch the forum evolve from a distance and assess the dynamic or are you straight in there without a care in the world?

I'd been away for a long time but just plunged back in.

I get overlooked at times, but that happens to everyone

I haven’t been away completely - the odd response here and there still - but when I’m back on I’m full-on saying too much and being a nano-second too late to do the one minute delete option

I think it's hardest when you see a profile picture you recognise but their name has changed.

I've spent some time trying to remember who they are

Watch the forum from a distance?

For the dynamic?

Bro, 90% of the dynamic is “say something nice about the person above” dribble. It’s like talking to a bit of snot in a jar most of the time

Just join in. Your overthinking it x99999

Just get stuck in. Stick to threads you’re comfortable with and can contribute to but don’t overthink it or you’ll never jump in.

I love the forums. It’s probably the only reason I stay

I’m back on after quite a long absence. I find I type out posts on threads and then change my mind and delete a lot of the time. Not all the time but more often that not at the moment. The more you post, the easier it gets though.
