Is RHP a Rollercoaster Ride of Highs and Lows for you?

May 03 2011

Hey Peeps I have been on RHP off and on now for 6 months and the forums for a couple. I have recently noticed a lot of the people that I talk to on here describe their experience to date as a Rollercoaster Ride of Highs and Lows; I think I'd tend to agree with that statement myself. Today for example, I signed in, all excited and happy, responded to some mail and forums, and then bumped into yet another topic that just turned my smile upside down and my blood started to boil (AGAIN)! I do however experience more high times than low times, thankfully What are your thoughts on your experiences to date and how would you describe it?

    Spot on Boobalicious....................RHP is a wonderful site, with lots of wonderful, exciting things to offer..... Though, like everything wonderful and exciting, it attracts a certain type, ah, shall we say............. Duds? My partner and I de- brief all the time about how certain types just don't get the message...! For example, when someone is constantly looking at your profile, and then either flirt or send you a message and you politely respond saying " Thank you, though NO thank you,wishing you all the best on your search..." and they STILL send you messages/ flirts and stalk your profile a little more... WHAT IS THAT? ...LOL...Even worse, take it badly and ask why.....Another Low would be the many messages we find when we log on from males with no sense of literacy skills, providing cock shots attached to the most simplistic messages ( something you'd expect from a dislexic 6 year old ! ) ....( Yawn ) As Homer Simpson once said it....... ' BORING..! ' Besides those few Low points, we do love the highs from RHP........ And as someone once said, ' Accentuate the positives....' So we love RHP's High points......... and we have a daily laugh about all the LOW points............ KissesMiss Seductive xxxx

    Hey Booba, . I agree with you here. It's like a typical community in many respects. There are good days and bad. There is good behaviour and bad. There are familiar members of the community and unfamiliar newbies. Sometimes both types of members behave badly and other days, they are full of surprises. There isn't always the same consistency you might come to rely on amongst your friends in the real world. . I agree with SydneySeductive that you have to roll with it to a point and take the good days with the bad. Yes, the inbox carry on can be particularly annoying and the forums certainly have their moments. From the point of view of someone who is in a relationship, I think it's especially important to keep a very healthy perspective on the "bigger picture", or the rollercoaster ride would become a little wild at times. . At the end of the day, as welcoming and interesting as this community centre is to be a daily part of, I'm beginning to think that the odd hiatus from RHP now and then couldn't hurt either. It's easy to forget that whilst (IMO) this is usually a good cross-section of the general population, it isn't always healthy to become too heavily invested in the goings on around here. . Keep smiling that gorgeous smile of yours and no doubt the weather will be different here before you've had a chance to let the raindrops land on your head! . Flirty x

    But now that I am more selective about people I chat to and my whole RHP experience I have plateued at a very happy medium with regular high peaks - the lows just dont happen for me as much as they used to . Kisses Focus

    .......I'm regretting ever coming on this site. What a roller coaster ride the last 6 weeks have been! Sadly I am addicted to the forums in particular so here I stay.

    If you read something you don't like, take it with a pinch of salt. The person who has written it is not a trusted person in your day to day life. . But the highs include a group of perceptive, wise, experienced, good natured and funny people that are communicating in the forums right now. Focus on them and your smile will come back in no time at all

    I do from time to time enjoy the forums but I must say it is a pain waiting for a post to appear only to see a dozen others ahead of me, sometimes making my point mute.I generally never get any response and personally see it as a bit of an in crowd. But that does not phase me at all. I participate in many forums from science to the arts and this is about the best adult forum I have discovered... So I return again and again.. And if I stir the pot and piss some off, well all the better as forums are about debate not a big happy family pissing in each others pockets (some of you have endless bladders). Oh and this forum also seem to be housed inside a glass house, strange for an adult forum..Well I will be back and will throw stones.. And the few that can handle debate make it worth the effort...So high no lows..

    Lots of ups and downs for me and I'd throw in a handful of 360 degree loops too. You know the kind where your stomach drops to your feet then up to your mouth and sometimes feels like it's squeezing right through your nose ! . I'm starting to see the detrimental side to long term RHP use. . Hugs, Saturn

    I can honestly say I have never had any lows with RHP and if you do, I think you must be taking this far too seriously.Having my blood boil at a forum topic or what people write.......truthfully I think maybe 3 - 4 times in the past 14 months. Or is my memory playing tricks on me? I once said to a few people that I am always nice to everyone on the forum and the way they both laughed in my face makes me think that I'm not as nice as I think. heheheBoobalicious what topic turned you smile upside down? xxMeeks

    Yesterday for the first time in ages this subject made me want to hit something - Cootar posting that he has been called in by his management because he is an RHP user? GRRRRRRRRRRRRR don't get me started on that one!! That is so fucked up and so illegal by his employer to initiate that type of interview...... opps, but back to topic LOL!! . I would say 90% of my experiences have been amazing and the journey only really just began 18 months ago. I think I am a better person for them. It has also made me so much more accepting and tolerant of others. We are not carbon copies of each other and I don't conform to the mentally that I have to live my life a certain way anymore. . For the negatives, they too have taught me lots of things about myself and others. . There are so many fucked up things in the world. RHP isn't one of them and if you use it as a medium to connect with other people, it can't be bad! . When I am feeling like you are now.... you just need to call in a reliable, sexy, horny FWB to centre your world again..... mmmmmmm sex is my drug of choice and I'm all for self medicating!! . xxx

I take what happens on here with fuck all seriousness . I will however say i have made some great friends and very glad to have met or exchanged messages with these people and of course had some exchanges with some complete FREAKS also But In General its a great place to have a great Laugh

    Yeah the Cootar thread was upsetting for sure, I just took my face pic off my public view, and it probably pays to be a little paranoid? Plus with all the bullying in the forums (well that is how i see some of it anyway, and I mean by the ‘tone’ and ‘words’ a select few choose to use very much on purpose i believe...) and noticing some people disappear as a result, it tends to just push my buttons, so much so that i want to scream at these people (i even fantasise about punching them! And I have never EVER been violent towards anyone b4?)!!! This is the first forum I have ever contributed to, and I guess it is the first time I have had to try and communicate with a group of people that I have never, and may ever meet. So without the real person to compare to, and all the non verbal communication or ‘their’ story face to face, maybe I am taking things said different to how they are intended, the on-line world can get confusing like this i think!?! I just ‘hear’ certain posts ‘my way’ and feel a strong reaction at times, and it often goes nowhere and is quite frustrating... I guess ‘on-line’ world should be treated differently to ‘my real world’ i must be getting the lines blurred or something? I need to do a cyber land 101 course – how real is it? haha Plus with all the time i started spending on the forums, what i am usually good at, striking up friendships through emails, instead i hardly started to return any, or if i did it wasn’t in a reasonable time frame! And i think that is crap behaviour, by my normal standards?! Lastly, I have made some lovely potential FWBs too, but leave them hanging as when I meet one in person and don’t really know how to juggle or transition into meeting another while i have a ‘current’ one?! Plus I don’t have heaps of free time anyway, so now it just feeling like i am leading people on....? So as much as this was all sooo much fun, at the moment I feel a little overwhelmed and am finding it all just a little too hard right now... So I think I might make like ‘Puppy’ and stay in the background for a bit too (calling myself a ‘lurker’ just sounds dodgy lol)... Love ya guts forum peeps! Over and out!

    Hi BoobiI frequently take breaks from RHP and its not because I am experiencing a high or a low, its simply because I recognise RHP for what it is for me, a place to go when I want to go there. I sometimes am engrossed in the community for months and then I'll have a 3 month or longer break. I find when I am heavily involved in local activities, or have a regular lover, I don't visit RHP as much. The thing I enjoy is knowing I can go into a chat room and there will usually be people there who I have chatted to before from all around the country. I have one friend in Perth who I will stay with when I visit there later this year. And there are supportive people who will take the time to answer people's dilemmas, yourself being one of them. If its not working for you right now, take a break, give yourself time to nurture yourself in whatever way you need to but leave your profile there for when you want to come back. You only have yourself to answer to and if there are people you really will miss in the short term while you decide what you want to do, get their email addys and stay in touch that way. Go well whichever way you go Boobi, Cheers WPGPS Blindman, you see it and say it well!

    Hey all,We think that statement is spot on.I think it's inevitable when you have so many different people looking for different things all lumped together. It's only natural you'll come across some people (men, women and couples) that you don't get a long with. We're very new to all this and have met some really genuine people but also some people who attack our preferences and make it seem like it's our fault that they never read our profile or that we're not looking for the same thing as them. We just block people like that and move on - It is a bit upsetting but it comes with registering on social networking sites.We usually scour the sites very actively for a couple weeks and then take some time off while we enjoy the hard work by going to parties and the like. That has work quite well and we'll probably continue to do that.I think mostly, you have to remember that a lot of people say stuff and post things online that they would never dare to do in person or over the phone for that matter.

    Oh Booba, this is a big pity but I understand where you're coming from and don't think it's such a bad idea in theory. I suspect I may not be too far behind you *sigh* . Keep in touch! Even though they sometimes make my eyes bleed, I LOVE your posts (and your messages too *giggle*) . Flirty x

    ... highs and lows without doubt. I think in the 5 years I have been on RHP I have felt just about every emotion there is to feel, spread over the couple of relationships I've had with RHP members, being stood up a couple of times, the one off fucks, the fuck buddies, the ones that become more, the ones that stay friends, the friendships made, the friendships lost, the chatroom, the forums... I've pretty much had the full RHP experience. Some of it has been absolute shit at times.. I've hated myself at moments, felt euphorically high, loved my journey, gotten caught up, felt let down, been in lust, tried so many sexual things/situations I would never had imagined myself EVER doing in my previous life, my eyes have been opened up, in ALOT MORE ways than one, learnt to let go of some things, learnt to fight for others, gotten stronger and more self assured, and have now found the man for me, arrived at only through my RHP journey, and we have been together for two years. Life changing, no less. Cheers, S
