Quote: I have to be honest and say that at one time, I was very pissed at the BB for not replying on my thread. I would try to seek help but no one would have an answer for me. I wondered why that was.
Yes, I too have had 'dry' periods when no one was posting much to my queries, and I was tempted to think it was because I wasn't interesting enough, or that people didn't like me, or that I wasn't in the right clique, whatever....
But then in DBing we are taught not to take things personally and to not assume! There could be ANY NUMBER of reasons why people don't respond at a given time.
It seems to me that if you post regularly on your own thread, and take the trouble to post to others regularly as well, you soon develop a support/advice circle and get people posting to your thread.
And just sometimes, we feel the need to have the take of someone who is further down the road, 'senior' or otherwise wiser, and we actively solicit their advice.
I would be flattered if someone were to seek me out for advice! And if I was unable to give it, I would politely inform the person that it was not possible at that moment.
Just a bit of give and take.
