Are you serious?

Aug 17, 2010

This is a rant. So if you're not in the mood for a negative read, please skip this blog.

I posted on one of the forums that I got my surgery date today. I honestly thought I would get some postive feedback like I see so often on here. It's something I do when I see someone has shared a positive post. I'm truly happy for them.

So far (7 hours later) I haven't gotten any replies. Did I expect a ton of replies or a "hot" tag next to my post? No. I did expect one or two "congratulations" though.

Now I find myself asking why I even bother with this site. It's a community for WLS folks to share and I enjoy reading as much as I can about those who have traveled this path before me. I like sharing the excitement that others are feeling. I am sympathetic to those who need someone to just listen. So yeah, I do expect something in return when i do the same thing by posting on here.

I'm sure this blog will not win me any brownie points with anyone but I wanted to get this off my chest.
