Who else is considered a newbie? I don't
really know, because i'm new myself.
I really liked this forum at first, but
now I can't help but feel unwelcome. I
came here because it was described as a
"teen pregnancy forum". I came here to
get and give advice and talk to other
girls in the situation i'm in.
While browsing the posts tonight i've
noticed the people who have been here
forever seem to despise us newbies. I
understand that to some sense, but when
you first came here weren't you new?
It's hard me to fit in most places being a
pregnant teenager. My friends hardly
call me to hang out on the weekends
because all they do is sit around and get
drunk, and that's not fun for me now, and
it never will be again. I thought I
could fit in here, but i'm not even
wanted. I'm a pregnant teen that's not
even wanted by other pregnant teens or
pregnant teen enthusiasts.
Will I ever be accepted, or should I just
find another forum? I understand not
everyone despises the newbies, but it's
more than a little hurtful to read about
those who do.

You are accepted here guys!  its just that some
of us have been here so long and it was in
the beginning when we were all close and
knew everybody... And now fakes have come
up and some people dont talk as much or
dont have time... And its hard for some
to deal with that. Its not we dont
"welcome" newbies, I guess its just we
feel everyone drifting apart. Im sorry u
see it that way but u are very welcome
here!

It blows doesn't it? A lot of people
here are really great though. I
understand that it's hard to accept new
people, but if you don't try then it'll
never work.

You guys are accepted here! It's
like..... Newbies (to me) are those who
have been here who
1) don't know who tiffaney is.
2) I don't know their age and/or if they
have kids
3) dunno where they live
some "non" newbies are:
stacie, nikki, erin, jill, jeni, shauna,
april, jordan, chrissy, jennifer, liz,
erica, kristin, gaby, destiny, alisson,
ryan, heather
that isn't all the "regs" but that is an
example of who isn't newbies.

Well, someday perhaps I won't be a newbie.
I'm gonna ask though, who is tiffany?
I know she died (car accident?), but what
happened? It seems like a big deal and
i'd just like to know.

I just read she was murdered. That's so
sad. That's worse than sad, that's
tragic.

That is easily one of the worst things
i've ever read, and your poor brother.
It seems you've suffered a lot of tragedy
in your life, and for your sake I hope
it's made you a stronger person. I don't
really pray, but i'll keep you and your
family in my thoughts. Does the baby
stay with your brother?

I dont understand lauren, in what way do
you feel unwelcome. I thought you had
made friends very easily?
Im still very new as well! Im probably
considered a newbie! But if I feel like
people are ignoring my posts or my replys
then I just let it go over my head I know
it's not a personal thing!

You are as welcome as you make yourself.
However, making posts complaining about
people's reactions to you just cause
unnecessary drama.

i wasn't trying to cause unnecessary
drama, but I read several different topics
in a row and they all had posts
complaining about newbies. I originally
started the topic to find out who else was
considered a newbie, but I sort of vented
from there. Everyone has their vent
moments, that was mine.

"pregnant teen enthusiasts" - thanks for
making us sound like loosers!!!! Lol!
I've been here just over a year (sept
17th) & sometimes I still don't feel
everyone knows me! And when people call
me sparkly it annoys me-my name's liz it's
not that hard to remember! I consider a
newbie to be someone whose made less
then...I dunno....400 posts maybe &
someone who isn't well known-like if
someone said their real name & I
didn't know them i'd call them a newbie
because i'm good at names & if I don't
know them they must be new! But anyway
that's what I think-try not to take it all
too personally because I used to
