AYD,
I must say I felt the same way as you during stages 2 and 3. I had neediness for criticism, comments, and results. I'd sometimes look on the forum and wonder why I'm not getting comments or as many views as others. But now it doesn't matter. I still post just as much as anyone else but now without any thought behind it... Sometimes I will in my journal entries and in other responses but all in all not so much. I don't even read long posts anymore. I'm one of those guys that reads the first and last sentences of long posts. I'll come out and say it now, Patti, your posts are freaking long! But if it catches my interest within the first couple of lines I'll read the paragraph.. then give the second paragraph a chance. lol... I guess this all just comes with indifference. I sound lazy but I'm not. I haven't been this productive in my entire life!
