    I'm leaving PT

    Not that anyone will care.

    I'm getting so sick of the people on PT. A lot of you get on my nerves with your "I'm right your wrong" opinoins.

    I have had a lot of stress in my life lately and I thought talk would be a good place to just be able to talk about my pets and other things but it's just adding more stress.

    I don't know whether I'll come back. If I do it won't be anytime soon.

    If you're listening to this song
    You may think the chords are going wrong
    But they're not
    We just wrote it like that

    When you're listening late at night
    You may think the band are not quite right
    But they are, they just play it like that

    It doesn't really matter what chords I play
    What words I say or time of day it is
    As it's only a Northern song

    It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear
    Or how I fare or if my hair is brown
    When it's only a Northern song

    If you think the harmony
    Is a little dark and out of key
    You're correct, there's nobody there

    And I told you there's no one there

    ~The Beatles

    Whag? Why post just to say you're leaving? If you post positively, you contribute to a nicer atmosphere! If someone starts sniping, ignore them! A friendly, happy Pet Talk is all of our responsibilities.

    Right on, Karen!

    Allanimalswelcome, don't let the bad apples get you down ... that's what the "ignore" feature is for! And if you don't want to argue with people, don't get suckered into the argument. Nice and simple. A good way to do this is avoid going to the "Dog House" entirely. Me, I enjoy a good argument!

    Cheers and good luck

    I agree Karen. Just because some people get on your nerves is no reason to leave. And like ittybitty said, you could just use the ignore feature. I hope you do come back.

    I care! I think a lot of us do. I might disagree with something you say, but I will always value your input and that of others. I hope you will reconsider and stay, but if not we'll definitely miss you.

    I'm confused, did you post this so that people will beg you to stay?

    ACK! STOP READING MY MIND, TWO KITTIES! Just cause we share a black kitty fetish, it isn't any reason to be so invasive..

    Not only that....and this goes for everyone who has posted that they're leaving....but I'm confused as to why anybody would let some words on an internet page stress them out. While PT is a great place to chat and connect with others who love pets..when all is said and done at the end of the day, it has no direct effect upon my life. You shouldn't take everything you read on here so personally.

    I agree. I have gotten into my share of arguments but it's not like I'm going to take it so personally and just leave. I take any arguments I go through here as an experience to learn from. And if not, then it just teaches me something more about the way humans think.

    Rachel, if you want to leave, then go. But I really don't see why you should. Maybe taking some time off will help. In any case, take care of yourself.

    Funny thing - I don't like everyone at my job, but it doesn't stop me from coming to work and being around the people I do like.

    I don't like everyone in my family but it doesn't stop me from going to family gatherings and socializing with the people I do like.

    I don't even like everyone in the grocery store - but I still go shopping.

    I am never going to like everyone and not everyone is going to like me. So what?

    PetTalk is the best! (btw - tomorrow I'm becoming a Pillar and I plan to do so at Thursdays - you are all invited )

    These are not the droids you were looking for

    I hate to see (just about ) anyone leave P.T. So people do care.

    I don't want to be hard on the people that need to leave for awhile. We all have different points of stress going on in our lives. A break may bring some back more positive than ever!

    Personally if I got that stressed out that I wanted to leave, then I'd just leave and not make a big deal out of it. I would not be posting that I was leaving, I'd just send Karen a PM and ask her to remove my name then quietly slip out the back door. But, that's just me.

    Bye Rachel. Take a break then come back when you are less stressed.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
