i joined myLot for 10 days now, and i'm so addicted to it. when i was offline, i will recall the discussions here. when i talk to my bf, i will share with him the discussions here. When mylot server is down, i got withdrawal symtoms. when i see my friends responding to my discussions, i'm delighted....is this the mylot sydrome? anyone out there who share this feeling with me or isit just me???

Oh, I always read this posts saying that they are addicted to mylot too, some people even said that they had a paper work to do in school and at work, but not doing it as they tend to open their computers instead and respond to discussions. Well, I am addicted too, and yes, I also recall of the discussions here when I'm out, and sometimes, I laugh once in awhile, and my husband think I'm crazy.

i think a bf has to bear listening to the discussions, he cant help it, but a husband is a bit busy* u know* !!! while the bf has all the time!!! ha ha ...lol..

lol, that's why i've been telling my bf about most of the discussions here and then we laugh over it together. maybe you may wanna share with your husband also...so he wont think that you are insane? Thanks for your response

lol, it know what you mean ...sometimes i have on 3 windows at the same time, 1 for posting discussion from my friends' list, 1 for posting discussion for 0 response and another window for responding on my comments. Thanks for sharing with us!

mine will go blank too, but when i try to go back to the discussion, i will see that my respond is already there...so i move on. It's easier to have on that window, cos it's really hard to find a discusson to respond to (if you know what i mean!!)

No, it's just not you. English is not my first language and when i'm here i have to search some words... And when i'm offline, i continue to answer with english... Write on myLot can be dangerous ;-)

Oh! Why do you say that it's dangerous? it's a good place to learn up some English words...when i came across some words that i dont understand, i can search from 'online dictionary' . Why do you think that it's dangerous?

I appreciate your interest in mylot. It is same with me. My wife and son both join me everyday for an hour or so, contributing their thoughts to be included in response.
PS: Becareful in telling your BF that you love mylot more than BF. He should not feel that he is not given 1st priority. You know men are....J

LOL he's always very jealous of myLot and i suspect that's why he refused to join mylot especially as my referral!! it's great that your wife and son is a member too! That's wonderful! Thanks for sharing!

Lol...its definately not you....I actually find myself writing down things I would like to make into a discussion, in my brand new notebook with the title MYLOT DISCUSSIONS on the cover.....lol....I also talk to other people about the discussions and ask what their opinions are, and also, I feel pretty down when mylot servers are down. When I get up in the morning, I change my daughter, give her breakfast, and check mylot. The same is true at night before she goes to bed. Then when she is napping I am on mylot, when she is down for the night, Im on mylot. Sometimes until 3 or 4 am!

I sometimes can't pull myself away from the computer. And sometimes there's not even a topic for me to respond too. But I just keep looking. I have to check on mylot every morning,at least, to see if I've made progress. And then I type away. It's like once I'm on mylot, it's hard to get off.
