Definitely. Any ideas what that might be?? Given his predisposition to call women, "cunts", I am betting it has something to do with a past rejection, by a woman. Barry, can you give us a hint?? ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <authfriend@...> wrote : I think you are pandering, actually. It's tough that "ganging up" on somebody makes you uncomfortable, but if anyone deserves to be ganged up on, it's Barry. He's reaping what he's sown; his chickens are coming home to roost. It's not up to you to rescue him from what he's brought on himself. I didn't say your happiness was dependent on Barry liking you. If you can't get him to like you, you'll just go pander to somebody else. That's what you do here. As the good doctor just pointed out, the folks Barry lives with in Leiden are not his "family," no matter how "nice" they may look to you. The point is, something is missing from his life that drives him to be sadistically and gratuitously mean to other people. You are not going to fill that lack no matter what you do. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <sharelong60@...> wrote : Judy, I'm not pandering. And I admit I don't like it when lots of people gang up on one person. As for turq liking me, I think it's great when people like other people. But my happiness is not dependent upon it. Also, I've seen a picture of turq's family and they look nice to me. Also we've seen pictures of Maya and heard stories about their time together.

Whether his "family there in Leiden" is "really nice" or not, Barry is missing something big in his life and spends enormous amounts of time and energy taking that lack out on everybody else. Doc, I think turq has a really nice family there in Leiden, so I don't think he's all that lonely. As for being old, we're all getting there!

Sure, climb into your cocoon of convention - but, please, do it more quietly. We no longer need to hear this POV of yours. Fewer posts, for awhile, if you would - or back to TV reviews. You numb us with your repetition, and the same angry screeds, against the same targets. I watch you smugly dismiss my words, to disguise your embarrassment at being called out, and yet, I am almost surprised, that you are so unaware of your transparency. You really have to put on your big boy pants, Barry, to participate on a forum that encourages seeing beyond illusions. Being lonely, and just wanting attention, doesn't cut it, here. People like me, are going to see you for who you are, and not simply accept who you *think* you are. Love, Doc I liked that sentence I italicized and put in green a lot Doc. Another gold star, this time a virtual one. Imagine it in your head and make it as fancy as you want. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <turquoiseb@...> wrote : You realize, don't you "Mr. Enlightened," that you are still up obsessing about me at 3:23 AM your time, right? :-) :-) :-) From: "doctordumbass@..." <doctordumbass@...> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, March 19, 2014 11:23 AM Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Why some people are REALLY bothered by others who might feel special LOL - Birds of a feather, eh? Ha ha, I was wondering when you'd bite, knowing with a certainty, that you were reading these posts of mine, despite your past [moronic] denials, and recognizing them as applying mostly to you. You are exceptionally predictable, Barry. Seriously, I post elements of your psyche, on FFL, occasionally, to simply force some self-awareness on you, and get you to nudge the stylus over, on that skipping record, in your head. And, to give the rest of us a break. Get it? :-) Nothing personal - I'd do the same favor, for anyone else, as clueless. Enlightened people are out to enlighten the world, without playing favorites. So, please don't feel singled out by me -- after all, you ain't *that* special, anyway ;-) You just need more work, than most, to wake up from your stupor, and sleepwalking doesn't count. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <turquoiseb@...> wrote : Meanwhile, the person who claims to be "enlightened" is still obsessing over a few posts that never had anything to do with him in the first place, and reacting to them by doing *exactly* what he's railing about -- trying to put down people he feels he's in competition with in an attempt to be "special" and "win." Go figure. If you're "enlightened," you sure make a strong case for everyone to avoid it like the plague.

Light always provides a shiver down the spine, for those who enjoy hiding in their own darkness.:-) I find after I post something like this, the childish ones who engage in the behavior I am pointing out, cool their jets, for awhile, until they sense "Dad" is no longer watching - lol. Then they are back to their infantile tricks - can't help themselves; knowledge is structured in consciousness. A pretty funny game to play, with those who are fearful of being exposed for who they are, yet can't help themselves. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <awoelflebater@...> wrote : ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote : Ego competition, of course. There are a couple of people on here, always ranting and raving against others, who, they insist, are involved in all things spiritual, ONLY because, "it makes them feel special". I have always thought it was the mightiest of assumptions to know what someone else is thinking. Nonetheless, I am curious, not about what drives a person's feelings of "specialness", but why another person would bring this up as some kind of personal sin against *themselves*, for years. On and on - ranting and raving, for days, weeks, months and years. Pretty funny when it becomes clear, the one denigrating others for feeling special, is doing so, because, they don't like the competition. Who cares if someone else feels, "special"? Seriously, who cares? And if someone is feeling inappropriately special, what is the alternative being proposed? Oh, right, there isn't one - simply a case of jealousy, and ego competition. No alternative is ever proposed, except that the perceived special one, STFU. SO if you see anyone around here, getting down on anyone who might feel "special", ask yourselves why. The answer is because the one making the accusation, is feeling *extra* "special", and doesn't like the competition, from those who are not seeing this critic's self-righteous view of the world, as they bloody well should. What a spiritually unenlightened viewpoint. Such thinking is the antithesis of this forum. Someone who criticizes others, strongly and regularly, for being special, or for believing in God, or for not seeing the world as they do, or for speaking too much about enlightenment - It appears such a person continues on a forum like this, because their differing opinions are strongly outweighed by their loneliness. There is no attempt to provide alternatives - just bash, bash, bash, as if they are saying, "All of the negatives I am pointing out, are to turn you attention back to me". What lengths some of us will go to, simply for a little attention, and love.
