In light of recent events and the majority of the cB community generally wanting to bring together a closer community, I took the liberty of re-starting a thread that BrandonSaunders started a while ago. I thought a new one should be made, to start fresh and new and this way we could all get closer. I think this is one of the few topics where we SHOULD have a version 2/3/4 and so on, because it's a topic where I am asking, as Brandon asked that we all share stories and opinions and feelings and interact.

Reference to his topic, and ideas of questions and such to ask can be found here : http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php...=115046&hl=


As Brandon said :

For the most part, most of us are nothing more than screennames and links to networking and blogging mediums.

Lets take the opportunity to get to know each other. Feel free to ask someone (in here) a few questions about them; something that has always interested you about the person. Try to maintain proper decorum, but make an effort to reach out to someone instead of wondering what someone is really like.

I'm an open book. So I guess yous can all start by asking me something.

This should be fun...

This time, you could start by asking me something, or asking someone else something that you've always itched to ask about.



Im Isabella. Im 14 going on 15, but people usually mistake me for somebody 16-19. Not really because I have an 'old' looking face but because of my general appearance and demeanor. I know online i seem childish and immature to many of you, but that's becase this is the internet and I dont give a f**k. But to people I know in person, they see me as very mature and grown. Maybe it's because of events in my life that have made it hard for me to have a normal childhood. For instance, I used to find solace in gang life and activity because I thought it was somewhere I could fit in and find respect and power but then my long term boyfriend and whom i believe to be my first love was shto and murdered and I realized this wasn't the life I wanted to lead, living each day worrying whether or not it would be my last or if I'd wake up tomorrow. I was molested, physically and sexually abused by 2 different boyfreinds and a friend of a friend. I look for love and reassurance in all the wrong places because my parents are ... the epitome of a failed marriage. All i have known from my parents is hatred. All they do is fight and yell and take it out on the children. Im also not exactly poor but yet, my family barely manages to live paycheck to paycheck. Any questions ? Does anyone want me to go into depth about the gangs, the abuse experiences, the family ? Feel free to ask questions.

Wow bella I just gained so much more respect for you

Hi, I'm Jackie. I just turned sixteen. My family is a bit messed up, but nowhere near as bad as some other people who posted. Basically my mom isn't fond of me (i don't like her either). She is always on my about appearence and weight even though I'm over 100 pounds less than her. She's very critisizing, condesending and basically not there. My father is amazing, I love him to pieces but he is always working. My grandmother makes up for all that. SHe is my best friend and I love her to death. I have severe ocd, bdd and I've struggled with anorexia/bulimia for years. I'm always here if someone ever needs to talk about their experience with that, or needs help.

life-altering experience: I don't know, probably this past school year. The people I considered my best friends just stopped talking to me completely. It was my first year of highschool, and I didn't know anyone. My grandma was in and out of the hospital and my anorexia kind of sprung back up again. I became almost silent throughout all of my classes, which is a big difference from non-stop talking and constantly being told to be quiet.


skill/ability- Physical wise dance. I live and breathe it. But personality wise either listening/comforting or arguing/proving a point

What is your biggest childhood dream?

Thank you. (:

And I know what you mean by your mom botehring you about your weight and struggling with bulimia and anorexia. When i was a kid, my mom worked nights and my dad was usually drunk and didn't bother with me or my brother so I'd go eat something and sit in my room, which led to me being overweight, and my mom would come home and fight with my dad for letting me eat, and after the fighting was over she'd come into my room call me a fat pig, threaten me with diets and forcing me to excersize and then repeat the cycle. I always feel inadequate and unworthy when im with her, like no matter how much i do to try and get her to notice all the good things i have done all she focuses on is the bad.


When i was a kid, my dream was to just have a normal functioning family. I used to think that all families were the way mine were. Then i started making close friends and started telling them, and they thought it was crazy that my parents fought and that my mom yelled at me and my dad was always drunk or just didn't care. Other than that, I've aaalways wanted to get into forensic science and crime scene investigation. For the longest time i've been really into death and murder and rape and how and why anyone would do that.
